Excellent Stay

It was amazing, only that we had to move on we would have stay there longer. Only 10mins to the shops and to the motorway. Peace and quiet. Would recommend it to everyone.

Great stay with great Hosts

Amazing cottage. Communication with hosts where excellent. Even round up the sheep herd was inclusive :-). We had a wonderful time in the cottage and just loved the view of the fields surrounding. We found everything we needed in the cottage as well. Thanks again for a really nice vacation.

5 of us stayed here Monday to Thursday, we were all very impressed with the cottage, and the views around it were spectacular. There was everything you could need for a stay here. The fishing lake, just a few yards from the cottage was beautiful, even if you don't fish, was lovely to walk around. The town of Linlithgow was just a couple of miles away, with an historical palace to visit, good rail links to Edinburgh and Glasgow and good restaurants and shops. I would highly recommend these cottages, they are a great find. Enjoy!!

Just what we wanted

We arrived a bit early & it wasnt any problem for Jim, who met us, in the rain. Inside after a little tour & info on the workings of the gas stove, lights,door keys etc, we unloaded & just relaxed. Looking out at the sheeo pastures & the 360 views itvwas amazing.! The drive up the hill was a bit scary, but after a few trios up/ down we adjusted. House was lovely. Everything clean & neat. Im sad we didn't have time to put the living room back together, as we needed to be to the airport so early. Left them a bottle of wine to say thank you & forgot to leave a note of thanks. So " Thamk you"!!!

Lovely weekend stay with the girls

My friends and I booked this cottage for a weekend (friday & saturday night) to celebrate my birthday! The cottage was extremely clean and a very good size! The beds were extremely comfy and the livingroom/kitchen area was great! The only thing I would fault about our stay was that we booked this cottage under the impression we would have access to the hot tub all weekend however were told on arrival that this was only available on the second night after 5pm. If you are booking make sure to ask the owners if the hot tub will be available for use as there is only 1 hot tub for all 3 cottages. I will also say to please watch when driving up the private country road to the cottages as there are loads of pot holes and some are very deep and i burst my tyre when i went up and had to phone RAC (i feel the owners should see about getting this fixed). The owners were extremely friendly and were happy to come in and explain to us how to use the oven and the hot tub! Was an overall lovely weekend.

Es war toll der Vermieter war sehr nett und hilfsbereit das Haus war geräumig und sauber. Es hätten ein paar Teller usw. mehr vorhanden sein könne. Wir haben die Spülmaschine nie genutzt weil wir täglich spülen mussten. Die Pfannen waren sehr alt , wir haben eine neue gekauft.Die Messer waren etwas stumpf, wir haben ein Brotmesser gekauft :-). All das waren aber Kleinigkeiten die den Urlaub nicht gestört haben wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und würden wiederkommen.

Easy to get to. Lovely peaceful surroundings in the country. Accommodation was very good and comfortable. Only one suggestion for improvement: include water glasses in the kitchen.Wi-Fi is currently patchy, but we were advised of this by the owner when we arrived. This was beyond the owner's control. It did not spoil our holiday or enjoyment for our stay.

Wonderful idyllic cottage

This was a wonderful cottage and a beautiful setting. It was extremely clean and well equipped. The owner was delightful and very helpful.It should be noted that there is no dryer or hot tub. But there was a rack to dry clothes on and they dried quickly. Also, you need to take your own bath soap. It was very up-to-date and the view from your window was gorgeous. Lambs scampering about and a beautiful view of the valley. We were extremely happy with our location.

Best stay in a Cottage in Scotland

We found a beautiful Cottage in the near of Linlithgow. For the start all necessary things were available in the Cottage. In the evening Jim, the owner, visit shortly and had a talk with us. The area around is so beautiful. Sheaps, top view on the Ochils.
