I walked around the cottages and wow!
Looks amazing through the camera, you could still see it with the naked eye but not as vivid. These are not altered images, straight from the camera.

We thought we would share some of our recent reviews, these kind words makes it all worthwhile.

Parlour Cottage just opened after renovation

*****

Elaine was really helpful and showed me round and how to adjust the heating etc. The cottage is very comfortable and the views from the sitting room are stunning. The kitchen looks out over a courtyard which is also really beautiful. Plenty of space to park outside and Elaine showed us where the girls could play outside in the orchard. We had a lovely time, thank you.

Lovely spot for enjoying the countryside or visiting the city from.
Lovely location, friendly owner, clean and comfortable. Great place to walk the dog and enjoy the countryside. Within a reasonable distance of Edinburgh and Glasgow too.

Wont look any further once you get to this property. I would stay here every time. It is well worth the price and more. Easy links to cities while in a peaceful and quiet little village. Family friendly and plenty of space to walk the dog. The owners was very friendly, kind and helpful. Cant fault anything.

The house was as described, clean, today and in an excellent location with fantastic views... We even had the added bonus of snow on our visit.. Very happy with our booking.
