Childhood home of Scottish author Lewis Grassic Gibbon in rural Laurencekirk
The Cottage
Bloomfield Steading has a two-bedroom house with one bedroom offering a double and single bed, and the other with two single beds. The cottage includes a fully equipped kitchenette with cooking equipment, a washing machine, and a TV. All rooms are non-smoking, and free on-site private parking is available for guests.
Literary Heritage
The holiday home is the childhood home of the famous Scottish author Lewis Grassic Gibbon, author of Sunset Song. Located in rural farmland, the property offers a setting that inspired his writing. Guests can experience the same peaceful environment that shaped his literary works.
Outdoor Spaces
The property features a garden with views of the surrounding farmland and fields. Guests can watch sheep and cows grazing nearby, adding to the rural experience. The front garden provides a space to relax, though the cottage notes the lack of a gate for securing small children.
