The floorboards creak gently underfoot, and morning sun pools on the landing windowsill — this is the sort of place where you wake slowly, to proper tea in china cups.
Daisybank Cottage offers both traditional B&B rooms in the main house and a camping pod outside for those after something a bit different. It suits couples looking for a countryside break with a bit of comfort, or solo travellers who want a friendly base without the fuss of a hotel. Dog owners should ask ahead — policies can vary depending on the room or pod. The setup feels intimate and personal, the kind of place where you might chat to your hosts over breakfast rather than queue at a buffet.
It's open all year, so works for weekend escapes in any season. Campfire rules aren't set in stone, so worth checking when you arrive if you're planning an evening by the flames. The vibe is quiet and tucked-away, more about unwinding than ticking off attractions — though you'll likely find good walking country on the doorstep.
