Guests say
Nether Cottage in Dunfermline is a well-received holiday rental, praised for its warm atmosphere, well-equipped nature, and friendly owner. Guests appreciate the welcome pack and find the property to be a convenient base for visiting local attractions and family. The cottage's history and access to beautiful grounds add to its charm.
The cottage is generally described as clean and comfortable. However, one review mentioned an issue with mould in the shower, which slightly lowers the score.
The location is deemed handy for Edinburgh and local attractions, with some guests noting the ease of train travel. However, the inability to walk to places directly from the cottage and reliance on written directions over postcode slightly affect the score.
Guests find the beds comfortable and the furniture of quality, contributing to a pleasant stay. The spaciousness and dining space are also highlighted.
While the cottage is well-equipped and guests managed with provided appliances, there is a mention of a cooker not working, and difficulty with TV channels. Without more information on the overall state of facilities, a definitive score cannot be given.
The owner's thoughtfulness is frequently mentioned, with welcome packs highlighted as a lovely touch. While these gifts are warmly received, it should be noted that such extras are a courtesy and may not be guaranteed for every stay.

Lovely, warm cottage, containing everything you could need. Owner was on hand if needed, very friendly and explained throughly everything that we needed to know. Also provided a very nice welcome pack plus the essential pint of milk. Thank you. (A 5 minute drive to local stores down dark country lanes, otherwise). It was in an ideal spot for us to visit family in Dunfermline and nearby. And we also had family around for dinner, as there was plenty of dining space. I think the only issue we had was using the tv and finding terrestrial channels, but we got to see what we wanted. Visited Royal Yacht Britannia and Falkirk Wheel also this visit (good weather days), and the cinema near Stirling when it was bucketing it down.

Fantastic cottage in a really handy location for Edinburgh and knockhill racing circuit. Owner was so helpful and a wonderful welcome pack was waiting for us on arrival including lots of extras in the fridge. Clean, comfortable and great value for money.

We've had a fantastic week using the cottage as our base. Visited lots of attractions in the area. Edinburgh by train was so easy/cheap with free parking in Dunfermline. Paul our host was very helpful and the cottage is very well equipped. A few nice pubs within 10-15 mins drive. Don't rely on postcode for directions , follow the written instructions from owners. The welcome goodies are a lovely touch.
