We have stayed in different accommodation at Paddock Hall over 10 years while visiting friends and family in the area. We have always experienced high standards of cleanliness and comfort. Easy check in and out. Dogs always welcome too.

As usual the Haymakers was a retreat, a great location for our needs. We have stayed on numerous occasions and will return again in July. The on site staff are very helpful and friendly. Just a small note, a little update in the kitchen re utensils and repair to trim of cupboard edges is needed.

Lovely comfortable cottage with everything you need. Relaxing view over fields. Short drive to Linlithgow which was an interesting town and good rail connection to Edinburgh and Glasgow.
