East Cottage

A National Trust for Scotland self catering cottage at the Hill of Tarvit estate just outside of Cupar, Fife. It's a bungalow and you can park directly outside of it. The main entrance is through the dining kitchen which leads into the living room. There are 3 easily accessible bedrooms leading off from the living room. The bathroom has a bath with a flexible hose shower. The toilet is a bit low but manageable as I hung onto the sink for support. We took my shower board with us and I was able to be assisted to wash this way. I've restricted mobility needing to use sticks for support in the house and a wheelchair to go further outside. I found the cottage very easy to move around and was able to sit at the outdoor table and chair on the flagged area just outside the kitchen door. There is central heating and so it was lovely and warm. There is also a combined washer/dryer which was very useful. The NTS allow dogs and also cats. So both our cats came on holiday with us; we took covers for the furniture and also a mini vacuum to keep the cat hair under control. For those with restricted mobility and also restricted vision, I can thoroughly recommend this cottage East Cottage. We certainly will be returning.
