Winter 2007-8 saw us battling with the elements building the architect designed dining room. This addition has opened up the whole house, creating a light and spacious feel throughout with greater orientation to the south.
This large room has floor to ceiling energy efficient glazing on 2 sides and gives the sensation of being part of the view. Ceiling fans mix the air on hot days and we have used the double doors surprisingly often so far. Soft lighting creates ambience in the evenings.
From the companionable table you can see loch, island and mountains to the west and south. We generally put a detailed weather forecast on the breakfast table each day and talk through guests plans for the day. This is a great space to meet other guests and plan your trips/walks. Guests dining with us in the evenings are treated to great sunset views.
Surrounding the room with decking has given our guests access outside to enjoy the view and weather from patio table & chairs - be that at breakfast or later in the day.
