About Munro Cottage

Munro Cottage offers accommodation in Balgowan on Inverness Farm. Come and share the quiet tranquillity of our working farm in the beautiful Caversham Valley. Inverness Farm is centrally situated, right in the heart of the popular Midlands Meander route, within easy reach of the finest restaurants, schools, spas, galleries and wedding venues in the country. This area is also a well known mountain bike and trail running destination, with miles and miles of single track and forest to explore.

Situated on top of a hill overlooking the beautiful Caversham Valley, we are blessed with magnificent 360 degree views. From the early morning mists in the valleys below to the glorious late afternoon sunsets on the surrounding mountains and forests, we are wonderfully spoilt and always in awe of our spectacular surroundings.

Self Catering Accommodation

Munro Cottage in Balgowan has two bedrooms, both of which are furnished with a Queen-size bed dressed in crisp percale linen and warm duvets. The main bedroom has an en-suite bathroom which both bedrooms share. The bathroom is fitted with shower and basin and there is a separate guest toilet. Quality towels and bathroom amenities are provided.

The cottage has a full kitchen which is equipped with a gas oven/stove, bar fridge and kettle, tea/coffee making facilities, eating utensils and crockery. For your convenience, tea, coffee, homemade rusks and fresh farm milk are provided.

There is an open plan lounge and dining room complete with a large fireplace to keep you warm and toasty during the cold winter months.

This cottage is gorgeous with views overlooking miles of forest, running trails and single-track and the Lions River meandering below in the valley.
