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.

Please note: Ellon Cottage features traditional coombed ceilings. Taller guests (over 6 feet) will need to watch their heads!

Beautiful Cottage
on Monday, 01 Jun 2026
If you like solitude this is a great choice. Very clean and comfortable. The bedrooms are tight due to ceiling height so be prepared to watch your head. As an older couple we did struggle with the TV as we couldn’t get live TV, No instructions anywhere. We are app savvy but found it very frustrating , I think someone had messed about with it maybe should be checked after guests depart. Would I stay there again Yes

Ellon Cottage proved even better than the photographs showed. The cottage was spotless, and well equipped. It was a delight to stay here due to its cosiness and warmth.

Thank you for the lovely review! We’re so pleased you had a relaxing long weekend on the Dorback Estate. The remoteness of the cottage means you can spend a night under the stars relaxing in the hot tub and if you're really lucky you might even catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights in all their mesmerising glory - plus it's a real haven for wildlife spotting. We hope to welcome you back one day!
