The Paddockhall Cottages were absolutely perfect for our group needs.
The Paddockhall Cottages were absolutely perfect for our group needs. We had 5 adults and one infant and it couldn’t have been better. Speed The Plough was a great size, beds were comfy, and the house was clean. The owner was super responsive and friendly. I would 100% stay here next time we are visiting Scotland.
