About this property

Beautiful mid century cottage in the heart of rural East Lothian.

Situated on a working farm in the foothills of the Lammermuirs, the enchanting Owl Cottage offers an idyllic escape for visitors who want to relax and unwind. This hidden gem is within walking distance of the conservation village of Gifford and gives a tranquil taste of rural life while being within easy reach of a multitude of local amenities and attractions.

With enclosed gardens to front and rear, and south-facing views over undulating hills and picturesque farmland, the cottage is a haven of simple luxury and comfort. A privately owned four acre woodland lies just a moment’s walk from the front door and provides a natural sanctuary for birdlife and native wildflowers that can be enjoyed by guests during their stay.

Nestled between the hills and the coast, guests are perfectly placed to explore and experience everything this captivating county has to offer. From magnificent castles, festivals and cultural landmarks to pristine golden beaches, and world-class golf courses, East Lothian has it all.
