LEARN MORE ABOUT OUR COTTAGE WINDOWS

Heritage windows look fantastic on almost any Scottish home. Learn more about our range of cottage style windows below and if you have any other questions our team will be happy to help. Why not visit our showroom to see our stunning windows for yourself?

What are cottage style windows?

Cottage style windows reflect a traditional aesthetic, reminiscent of many charming historic cottages found in the Highlands of Scotland.

Cottage windows feature a design adorned with numerous small panes, segmented by Georgian bars, creating a timeless and classic appearance.

The incorporation of Georgian bars adds authenticity to these windows, reminiscent of heritage architecture and capturing the essence of historical Scottish homes.

ERG Scotland’s cottage windows with Georgian bars perfectly embody the allure of traditional Scottish cottages, providing homeowners in the Highlands of Scotland with windows that seamlessly blend historical charm and contemporary functionality.

Are cottage windows more expensive?

When you analyse a cottage window and see the depth of detail employed to give it rustic charm and traditional characteristics, your assumption may be that it’s expensive – you’d be surprised!

Although costlier than some alternative window styles, cottage windows aren’t as expensive as they look and justify their higher price for their timeless appearance and accurate character.

Cost can also be affected by the window material chosen to manufacture them, the size of the designs, what quantity is required, the energy efficiency rating, and where in the world they’re bought from.

Evaluate the overall attributes of a cottage window and it amounts to excellent value in the long-term. 

Which homes will suit traditional cottage windows?

Windows crafted using traditional methods, faithfully replicate the original styling found in older properties.

Ideal for homes constructed during the late 19th or early 20th century, especially those ‘Listed’ or in conservation areas, ERG Scotland’s cottage windows perfectly capture historical authenticity.

ERG Scotland’s cottage windows honour the heritage and allure of properties in the Highlands of Scotland, including Inverness, Invergordon, and Easter Ross. Their ability to mirror traditional window features while complying with stringent regulations makes them an optimal choice for homeowners aiming to preserve the genuineness and charisma of their historic homes.

Yet, cottage windows aren’t limited to heritage properties. Increasingly sought after, these windows now adorn both rural and modern residences. Their charm effortlessly intertwines with contemporary architectural aesthetics, proving their versatility and timeless appeal across various home styles in the Highlands of Scotland.

Can you install cottage windows in a conservation area?

Replacement windows in conservation areas demand strict adherence to regulations to preserve the property’s traditional character.

Cottage windows, tailored to meet these standards, faithfully replicate historical window styles found in heritage homes.

For homeowners aiming to replace windows in heritage properties, compliance with stringent regulations is crucial. Heritage windows, mirroring older styles, excel in meeting these standards, ensuring an authentic replication of historical designs.

Before installing cottage windows in conservation areas, ensuring compliance with local planning and conservation regulations is vital. Seeking approval from relevant authorities or councils overseeing conservation areas is essential. We can help with this.

Cottage windows’ authentic replication of traditional styles often aligns with regulations, making them a suitable choice for preserving historical aesthetics. Expert guidance from us and adherence to regulations are pivotal in successfully installing cottage windows in conservation areas.

How can I customise my cottage windows to my home?

Customising cottage windows for your Inverness, Invergordon, or Easter Ross property involves key elements: colours, glazing, and hardware.

Colours play a significant role; with an array of hues, textures, and wood effects, ERG Scotland offers an extensive palette to complement your Highlands home. Explore traditional tones and emerging favourites to discover the ideal match, guided by our consultants.

Choosing glazing optimises window functionality. Our high-performance glass minimises energy costs. Discuss your goals with our team to select the right glass type.

Additionally, hardware details enhance appearance and security. Our collection of handles and locking systems reflects durability and craftsmanship.
Customise your cottage windows with ERG Scotland’s options in colours, glazing, and hardware, ensuring seamless harmony with your Highland property in Inverness, Invergordon, or Easter Ross.

Can I add glazing bars to my cottage windows?

Adding glazing bars not only maintains authenticity but also makes a visual impact, especially in replacing plain glass windows.

Retaining glazing bars enhances the charm and character of your cottage windows, elevating their aesthetic appeal. Whether for a historical restoration or classic infusion, glazing bars add timeless elegance while preserving tradition.
