Straiton : locations de vacances dans des cottages

Flew in from Toronto, Canada to this beautiful home away from home. Barbara, Graeme (and Rosie) were extremely hospitable and welcoming hosts. The cottage has everything you need. Lovely, comfortable linens and beds, clean and modern bathrooms, fully stocked kitchen, and great and private hot tub. The location is very rural, but easy to find with google maps. The town of Kilburnie is close by with a grocery store, gas station and pharmacy among other amenities.

What a wonderful stay we had. Beautiful little home with lots of character and stunning surroundings. Martyn was very responsive and helpful, left us a lovely bottle of Prosecco which was a lovely touch. Hot tub was fab and relaxing. Just what we needed for the weekend. Would highly recommend

We had a lovely stay with our 3 dogs at heron view, we enjoyed the spacious living area and comfortable beds. The utility space was a great nook for the dogs if they were wet from walking. Lovely local pub (the Masonic) with friendly people and bar staff. The hot tub was a massive bonus! Thanks Donald We will be back!

We stayed for 2 nights and the weather was horrendous BUT the cottage more than made up for this. We had everything we needed for some peace and quiet and a well needed rest. Cosy, welcoming and SPOTLESSLY clean! The cottage is on the main road but we never heard any traffic and the river running alongside was a lovely backdrop. Log fire, Netflix, a hot tub great WiFi and plenty of space for us all (including our dog). There is also a sauna which we didn’t use. The cottage is well equipped for cooking and was never cold at all! Plenty of steaming hot water and lovely big bath was a highlight too. We didn’t need to contact Jane for much as her instructions were so easy to understand. The couple of messages we did send however were responded to immediately. We will definitely be back and hopefully have better weather so we can explore the local area more. Thanks so much Jane and see you again soon! x

Such a magical place so peaceful and well looked after couldn’t have asked for anything better me and my partner and 2 kids really enjoyed our long weekend there will definitely be coming back

Lovely place. Accurate pictures, though when you get there it feels even nicer than photos can show. Very friendly and responsive. Sometimes it can be quite a vulnerable experience travelling as an LGBTQIA+ couple, but here we felt welcome and safe. Hope to visit again with friends and family.

The coach house was perfect for our family group of 10 adults. The sitting room and dining area was a lovely space to relax and dine in. We loved the wood burning stove which gives out such a good heat. The whole house was warm and cosy during a cold February weekend. Bed linen and towels were good quality and we enjoyed tasting local produce from the hamper. The drive in was further than we had expected but it’s a lovely private and peaceful location. The hot tub was a welcome addition although it did take a long time ( plus lots of logs) to get up to temperature. I would recommend the Coach House for a large party or gathering - we all enjoyed our stay!

Lovely cottage right next to the Pentland. We loved the cottage and the scenery around it. Kylie was lovely and easy to contact. Would recommend to anyone who wants to be close to Edinburgh but in nature.

Loved my stay at this beautiful cottage. Such a spacious, homely cottage with an amazing big enclosed garden for the dog. I’ll definitely be back!

Nice cosy cottage, lovely to meet you neil, thank you for welcome pack, A1 all round

We stayed at Tide View for a few days in March ‘25. The property was easy to find with parking on the road outside. Great location with stunning views across the bay and local nature reserve, a short walk from the bookshops and cafes in the town. The house itself was clean and well equipped with comfy beds and everything we needed for our stay (including towels for the dog!). A warm, cosy and peaceful retreat in a beautiful location. Thank you Nic and Alex

We stopped ar Carole's place on our Cumbrian leg of our trip around the UK. The place itself is very very nice, even better than the pictures. The beach is right on the doorstep, and the sunsets from the front conservatory are something else. Carole is very friendly and gives you privacy. This is the best place we've stayed at so far on our trip. We will definitely be back.

Amazing place to stay and fantastic host! We could not have asked for better, lovely cottage in a stunning location. Added bonus was the overnight snow, which the dogs loved! Would recommend the local hotel/pub, extremely friendly and the food was amazing. We cannot wait to return!

Alison’s place is absolutely fantastic. The house is easy to get to following the sat nav. On arrival we were able to check in early and the house is stunning. The surroundings are beautiful and would highly recommend staying here. It was peaceful and private. Will 100% be booking again in the summer and as perfect place for friends to meet.

I had a lovely few days at Lesley's place. It's secluded and quiet which is just what I was after. The views are beautiful and I was lucky enough to have clear skies to do some stargazing. The house itself is well set up and comfortable. Lots of great locations within a short distance and Lesley had some nice recommendations of places to go. I would advise to arrive in good daylight as the track to and through the farm is very dark.

The cottage was very cosy and catered for all our needs. The cottage is in a great location for The Lakeland Trial we had come to see and we enjoyed the walks and the scenery. Thank you for the Turkish restaurant recommendation, we visited it twice the food and service was excellent. Thank you for a lovely stay. Karen & Kevin.

We stayed at Chris’ place over new year and it was perfect. A stunning setting with some lovely walks and right by the water. We saw red squirrels, an otter, a heron and lots of other birds. It was a short stay but there was a lot more to see and do than we managed.

An ideal spot for getting to Edinburgh/Glasgow especially via the trains with free parking at the station.The site was warm, well furnished and Duncan the host went to great lengths to assist.The 'welcome basket' of bread,milk,cereal,butter etc was a nice touch.

We hugely enjoyed our stay at 2 Calgow Cottages. Everything we needed for a very comfortable stay had been provided. The kitchen was well-equipped, and the complimentary wine and biscuits were a nice surprise! Bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious and light, and the whole cottage was clean and beautifully decorated. A good selection of information and leaflets about the area were provided, the cottage is perfectly situated for exploring a large surrounding area, but there's also plenty of interest right on the doorstep. Access to the woods from the back garden was a treat, and the dark sky in the village made for excellent star gazing! Thank you very much Phillip and Graeme for an excellent holiday- we will be back!

A very relaxing couple of nights in a warm and welcoming cottage. Absolutely stunning location. Great directions and a very responsive friendly host. A really beautiful part of Scotland even in the wind and rain. Would certainly return and would recommend. Many thanks for an enjoyable short stay.

Excellent modern cottage on the outskirts of Gatehouse of Fleet, in the hills up to Galloway forest. A great retreat for quietness and to get away from it all. The hosts are excellent, this being on a farm it was nice to see the animals. Would love to be back someday. Enjoyed having 7 days of sun sitting on that patio.

The house was warm and comfortable with everything we needed. We appreciated the Christmas tree and decorations which made it feel especially welcoming. It is in a scenic and peaceful area with some interesting places to explore nearby. The conservatory and garden would make it an ideal place to visit in the summer. We would certainly recommend this property.

What can I say about this cottage? Outstanding, absolutely beautiful it has everything you would ever need. The cottage is very clean and well laid out. Lynda is the best host so responsive at all times and sometimes proactive. We had a power cut after the recent storm, Lynda offered to move me to a hotel or another cottage. I decided to stay and put up with the power outage which was really cosy with candles burning and the log fire lit. The real lovely surprise is when you turn off the road down the track to the cottage and you see the Loch which you cross a causeway to get the cottage, amazing. It’s a place I definitely want to return to return to for a holiday. So thank you for letting me use your amazing place Lynda I hope to stay again 👍

We had a great stay at this gorgeous cottage in a beautiful setting. Bea is a fantastic host and was on hand for anything we needed. The local pub, The Kirkmichael Arms, is excellent and well worth a visit - the bar is friendly and welcoming while the restaurant serves a tremendous range of food of very high quality. The community run church-cafe is also very warm and welcoming and sells a wide range of goods. We will be returning to the area often.
