Guests regularly rate popular Steading Cottage "excellent" on Trip Advisor
Select one multi-award-winning cottage on a hill livestock farm and two close-by must-see cities: historic Edinburgh and vibrant Glasgow. Blend in West Lothian's reputation as the happiest place in Scotland and your holiday recipe looks tempting. Add in easy access to a rich heritage of castles, abbeys, stately homes and an amazing diversity of activities from golfing, fishing, climbing all within an hour's drive and you'll discover an area you'll want to return to again and again. This is an all-weather destination. 1 of 3 cottages here.
Maybe explore ruined Linlithgow Palace, birthplace of Mary Queen of Scots? Or balance a day spent in the many wonderful free museums with indulging in some bargain retail therapy in Livingston’s nearby designer outlets? Then perhaps wind down the day with a stroll round the farm before relaxing with a dram enjoying the glow of the multi-fuel stove. Or drive the half-hour into Edinburgh to take in a show or an atmospheric ghost-walk round the old city?
Radiate East, West, South and North from here for an amazing diversity of stunning Scottish landscapes, from the hills and glens of Loch Lomond & the Trossachs to the wide sandy beaches of East Lothian, the rolling hills of the Borders and fishing villages of Fife. Relax on a boat trip, or enjoy free entertainment watching farm activities or piecing together a jigsaw in Steading Cottage whilst planning your next day's adventure.
