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.

Great little country cottage

We had a great time at this property. It was warm, clean, though a bit cluttered. Easy train travel to Edinburgh and well located for exploring Scotland.

The house is very nicely located, quiet and calm. There's a railway passing a short way away, but it didn't cause any noise problems, and anyway, if like me, you rather enjoy trains....The house itself is absolutely delightful and comfortable. The garden is very jolly too. There's plenty of board games and books to read, should you find the weather inclement and want to just stay indoors. There's plenty of space, oh, and a lovely piano too.

If you're searching for a spacious, scenic, and quiet place with easy access to Edinburgh, stop and book this now. You get a full kichen, two bathrooms, a fireplace, views of the North Sea, and a piano if you're so inclined. My two teenaged kids each got their own rooms, too! You won't hear noisy neighbours or vehicle traffic. Last but not least, you get a host who wants to be sure you're comfortable. The place made for an ideal jumping off point and home base for our Scottish vacation. Thank you!!

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
