Sleeping up to 6 people and with a layout ideal for 2 small families sharing, this award-winning detached 4 STAR cottage offers an authentic farm experience on a hill livestock farm. Within a 30 minute drive of Edinburgh with easy parking.
"From the outside it looks small. But step inside and it opens up like a tardis. High vaulted ceilings and lots of floor space upstairs on which our children could lay out your toy railway and ideal from the privacy angle for two couples holidaying together. We loved it!" Just one comment plucked from our Visitors' Book telling such wonderful stories.
35 minutes transports guests from rural paradise to the heart of exciting, historic Edinburgh. Within an hour's drive are Glasgow, Rob Roy, Braveheart and Border Country. This livestock farm on the Pentland Hills is the perfect place to relax, escape the city crowds, park a car with ease and enjoy the freedom of self-catering. 'This cottage is amazing: you've thought of absolutely everything' is a typical comment in the Visitors' Book.
As a 3 times winner of the coveted VisitScotland Award: SCOTTISH SELF-CATERING OPERATOR OF THE YEAR in 2001, 2005 and 2008, and currently a finalist in the 2012 prestigious Thistle Awards, the owner of this superb cottage, sleeping 6, gives Customer Care a high priority. The high 4 STAR rating reflects its excellent quality.
Steading Cottage, nestling right beside farm buildings and a field is the No.1 choice for those happy to be at the heart of the farm. Creatively transformed in 1998 from dereliction into a wonderful home, it is white, light, spacious, inviting and warm, with quality furnishings. Detached and 2 storey, with ground floor suitable for wheelchairs, it caters equally for the needs of Category 2 disabled and for families with youngsters and dogs. Wide stairs lead up to a small gallery area. Upstairs, with its own TV, lots of toys and games, is a child's paradise.
