Fiona & Bill Parker
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Garden Cottage. It was extremely comfortable & cosy with a wonderful secluded garden. The views to the Palace are amazing & it is perfectly situated for access to all the local amenities & eateries as well as being a good location to explore further afield. Would definitely recommend.

It was not easy to find the cottage even though it was close to main road we passed it twice before we realised where it was .A sign on the entrance to the cottage would have been helpful.

We spent a lovely Christmas at Garden Cottage. It is perfectly situated off a lovely high street and the train station is a 15 minute walk away with regular trains to Edinburgh and Glasgow. The cottage itself is clean, with comfortable beds and so cosy. I would definitely return in the future.
