Two bedrooms, the family bathroom, and a storeroom occupy the other end of the house. The master bedroom has a king-size bed and great views over the loch. The second bedroom is a twin, again overlooking Loch Dalbeg. The storeroom provides a place for you to store your cases and anything else you want to get out of the way during your stay. The spacious family bathroom has a bath and a separate walk-in shower - the pressurised water system provides a real power-shower experience. The entire house has been decorated to reflect Aultbeithe’s location right next to the sea.
