This place was lovely. The location is perfect; a quick and easy train ride to Edinburgh or an hour’s drive to St. Andrews. It has a beautiful garden as well. It’s cosy bit not little; so much room.

I love staying at this property. It is a “home” rather than a commercial rental. As the mom - planning and packing, i dont have to worry about the details because everything is there. In addition - its a really fun house for both grown ups and kids alike. I feel like im borrowing the house from a friend :)

Cosy home

Great property. One of the double beds has to be replaced. To soft. Otherwise very cosy and classic. Because a television is lacking we played games all evening. Family time with teen children. Enjoyed our stay.

Family Vacation

The cottage is right out of a British storybook. The kitchen and bathroom remodels are very well done and the backyard garden is very nice. The only critique is the home is cluttered with knick knacks and decor items. There isn’t space to put your luggage, toiletries, set down your drink or sever dinner without having to move items off of surfaces. The home could benefit from a good de-cluttering. But overall we really enjoyed our stay. I would recommend this home.

That's a shame Erica. The home is there to inspire. Books are there to read, plants are there to grow. Everyone has different tastes and I will take your comments on board. I wish you and your family well in the future. X
