Cosy cottage in fantastic location

Perfect situation for dog walking and exploring the local area. Beautiful beaches, pretty villages and an amazing forest complete with river and ancient castle ruins. Friendly pub, village store and tea room in the village. What more could you ask for? We will be back!

Quiet and comfortable

We had been looking for a place to stay when our daughter had an interview at the Edinburgh University. This was the closest for a reasonable price at the time. In general it is a nice place to stay, comfortable and clean. A commute to Edinburgh takes about 30 mins. We also went to Falkirk, about 1hr drive which was also a quite easy trip. Disadvantages: a halfbroken iron, the lack of washing machine and a double bed in one of the bedrooms when we put our boys, 15 and 9, together. But otherwise we would recommend it as a really nice place to stay within a reasonable distance from Edinburgh and for more than a reasonable price.

A Green haven of Peace and Quiet

We really enjoyed our stay in Gifford. Family get together with five adults and our grandson aged nearly 2 had a wonderful time. The house is spacious and the kitchen is well equipped. When we are in the area next time, we shall be coming back.
