About Ellon Cottage

Nestled on the Dorback Estate in Nethybridge, Ellon Cottage is a warm and inviting two-bedroom hideaway, thoughtfully renovated to preserve its traditional charm. With pine flooring throughout the ground floor and tasteful décor blending the old and new, this compact cottage offers a truly unique and relaxing escape.

On entering the cottage, you'll find a welcoming boot room with underfloor heating, perfect for drying off after outdoor adventures.

Whether you're whipping up a hearty post-walk meal or crafting a special dinner, the kitchen offers both the tools and the atmosphere to make it memorable. The sitting room exudes a cosy feel with its wood-burning stove and plush seating, an ideal space to unwind after a day of exploring. Set in a small alcove within the living room, the dining table provides a delightful space to eat, chat, and unwind in the glow of the wood burner.

The property features a spacious ground floor bathroom, complete with a separate shower and a relaxing bathtub. Upstairs, you will find two comfortable bedrooms, perfect for a restful night’s sleep.

The cottage opens out onto a private lawned garden, bordered by hedges and featuring a spacious patio. Here you can soak in the wood-fired hot tub while taking in breathtaking views across the Dorback Estate to the distant Cairngorm Mountains, the perfect setting for al fresco dining or evening relaxation.

Amazing Stay
on Sunday, 30 Aug 2026
Our family had a wonderful stay at Ellon Cottage — it truly felt like a cosy home-from-home. The setting was everything we hoped for, with beautiful mountain views and daily visits from deer that made the experience even more magical. Its location was ideal for exploring the Cairngorms, giving us easy access to everything we wanted to see. The hot tub was a real highlight, perfect for unwinding after a day out. We also really appreciated the thoughtful welcome basket; the local produce was outstanding and absolutely delicious. Ellon Cottage gave us the perfect mix of comfort, scenery, and special touches — we honestly wished we could have stayed longer.

We had a fantastic stay at Ellon Cottage and would highly recommend it. The setting is absolutely beautiful, with amazing views and the opportunity to see deer and plenty of wildlife right from the cottage. It’s the perfect place to relax and enjoy the surrounding nature. The cottage itself was lovely and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The hot tub was fantastic, and having a good supply of wood provided for both the hot tub and the fire was a really thoughtful touch. The location is also brilliant, with some great walks nearby and easy access to mountain bike parks, making it ideal for anyone who enjoys the outdoors. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely love to return!
