“Charming and comfortable cottage!”
The Tinkers Cottage is full of character and charm, but also very comfortable! The cottage is conveniently located on the main street of Clyde near restaurants, shops, bike rentals, ice cream, and movie theater. The hosts were very helpful in providing information - through Booking, but also in the Cottage. We had a great day of biking around the area.

“Oozing charm, small but lovely”
Charming cottage in central Clyde, cleverly and well provisioned despite a very small space. Small bathroom and kitchenette worked well. Parking on the road very easy and close. A nice fruit bowl and some shortbread kindly provided.

Tinkers Cottage suited our needs perfectly. It was very clean and had all we needed, including home made shortbread to have with our evening cup of tea. Highly recommend for the authentic Clyde cottage experience.
