We stayed for 3 nights and had a really good time. Cottage was very clean and had everything we needed. Beds and sofas were comfortable. Easy access to Edinburgh, 5 minute drive to the train station then you’re at Waverley in half an hour, so really convenient. Only niggle was that the boiler would make quite a noise about every 10-15 minutes or so, kids slept through it though even though it was next to their room. Owner was also very responsive when a minor problem with one of the showers was reported. Would like to come back and have a proper look round the estate and other places nearb...more
The host was super nice, and friendly. The location was easy enough to find, and manage. What we didn't like was all the mold in the bathroom. It wouldn't take much to re-caulk the bathroom to make it better. It gave us the ick, since that's not managed what else isn't?
This was our second visit to Gardeners House. The location is ideal as our extended family live locally and are able to visit. The house is large enough to entertain with many family meals prepared and shared at the large dining table. We enjoyed the country walks and bird life. The house is very cosy and warm and feels like home away from home. I would highly recommend a visit.
We very much enjoyed our stay at Sycamore Cottage. It was extremely comfortable and far enough out of the city to be beautifully quiet. We will definitely book again.
Lovely stay at Lime cottage for a week with our two dogs. Well furnished though took a while to warm up. Could do with a few more lights outside especially when needing to take the dogs out when it is dark. We would easily stay again.
