Transformation of the Alvie Cottages

Step into the impressive world of the Alvie cottages, Gleann and Beinn, where history meets modern comfort in these stunning renovations. Ekaterina Williamson, the talented interior designer behind the project, has beautifully restored these historic cottages on the Alvie Estate, preserving their character while adding contemporary design and comfort. Let us share more about the transformation of the Alvie cottages.

These before and after photographs showcase the extensive renovation journey, revealing the cottages stripped back to their bare walls. Original features like exposed rafters, fireplaces and reclaimed wooden doors have been carefully refurbished, honouring the cottages’ heritage.

Gone are the dim interiors of the past. Natural light floods the rooms through newly installed skylights, while a soft, neutral colour scheme creates a welcoming atmosphere. The photos highlight the dramatic transformation, emphasising the attention to detail throughout the design process. Both cottages are now open for bookings, offering guests the chance to experience the remarkable transformation of the Alvie cottages first-hand. Guests have been delighted with their stays at Gleann and Beinn Cottage, with many opting to extend their visit, reluctant to leave the comfort they’ve found within these walls.

Whether you’re planning a romantic getaway for two or a family holiday, with two bedrooms and pets welcome, the cottages on the Alvie Estate provide the perfect backdrop for relaxation and fun.
