A beautifully appointed cottage with everything you could possibly need and more. A perfect location to explore the central belt from, 5 minutes from the motorway but none of the noise. We loved it and so did our dogs.

We had a fabulous stay at this beautiful cottage and will definitely be back . The cottage is cosy and warm with plenty of room for a family of 6 . The log burner is tremendous although we didn’t really need it on as it was so warm with the heating . We went as a party of 4 with 2 late visitors and a baby and this was no problem at all for Mairi who brought us a high chair , the cot bed was already there , with cot sheet ! Fabulous! The cottage feels like it’s miles away it’s tucked away but it’s so accessible to everything you may need by being so close to motorway .We go away for New year every year and this is by far the best cottage we have stayed in ,it was fabulous 👌just to add the local pub is definitely worth a visit too friendly staff and good food .
