East Kelt Farm Cottage, Denny

History

The original 1735 butt -and-ben Scottish cottage has been extensively renovated with all the latest conveniences and was joined to an adjacent granary to provide a high-quality barn conversion. 

The magnificent lounge and kitchen features restored stone walls and joinery made from local hard woods. Most of the furniture was hand crafted by the late owner, Alexander Farquhar.
