Cottage
Linlithgow Cottage is the perfect base for a Scottish holiday. Just 15 minutes from Edinburgh Airport, 2kms from the M9, and with Edinburgh, Glasgow, Stirling, Perth and St Andrews all within an hour's drive. Opened in 2006 and furnished and equipped to a very high standard, the cottage has earned a 4 star rating from the Tourist Board. The cottage is deceptively extremely spacious. It has sleeping accommodation for up to four plus an infant in a cot. The cottage is just 2kms from the centre of the Royal Burgh of Linlithgow, birthplace of Mary, Queen of Scots and a town at the heart of hundreds of years of Scotland's history. Just 15 minutes away by train is Edinburgh, Scotland's Capital, with a host of tourism attractions from castles to ghost walks to the Royal Yacht Brittania!

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

Amazing place
This is a perfect relaxing place to stay and set in a great area for sightseeing. Our hosts were brilliant. Jim looked after us well and Gordon sorted us out with his expertise for the fishing. We found the cottage to be very good with all the amenities you need for a great holiday Thanks Jim.

A clean comfortable inviting cottage
We were impressed with the warmth of our welcome, and the cleanliness and facilities. We had some family matters to attend to and also visited people and attractions in the area. The cottage helped make it relaxing as well as providing facilities that made it easy for us to do what we needed to do.

Quiet, comfortable cottage in beautiful countryside.
This is a lovely place to spend a few days, or longer, just outside Linlithgow. There are two good size bedrooms, nice living and dining area, and a beautiful garden out the back. The cottage is situated next to a few other cottages and a couple of farm-houses, so it really is very quiet, safe and secluded. The walk into the village takes about 35 minutes, so a car is really essential. The owners are very friendly and helpful. We would definitely return to this location in the future.

Superb accomadation
What a lovely house fully equipped with everything you need and spotlessly clean. Lovely enclosed outdoor area at the rear was an added bonus for us as we took our dogs and the views from the front of the property were stunning. Very helpful and friendly people and the lemon drizzle cake that was left for us was a lovely touch. I highly recommend staying here and we will definitely be returning.

Geweldige cottage
We hebben een geweldige tijd gehad in de Linlithgow cottage. Bij aankomst stond een lekkere cake te wachten en gaf de eigenaresse ons direct enkele nuttige tips voor de omgeving. Het is een compleet ingericht huis van alle gemakken voorzien. Heerlijk rustig gelegen op enkele kilometers van het leuke stadje Linlithgow. Een prima uitvalsbasis om Edinburgh, Glasgow, Nationaalpark Loch Lomond en de omgeving van Five te verkennen.

Perfekte Ferienwohnung in toller Lage außerhalb Linlithgows
Die Linlithgow Cottages sind perfekte Ferienwohnungen (insgesamt drei) und ein guter Startpunkt für Ausflüge in alle Richtungen. Die Vermieterfamilie ist superfreundlich, sowohl in der Kommunikation vorab als auch vor Ort. Die Ferienwohnungen liegen etwas außerhalb Linlithgows auf einem Hügel, damit ist es sehr ruhig. Nach Linlithgow rein sind es knapp zwei Meilen, dort gibt es alles, von EInkaufen bis Essen. Aufgrund der verkehrsgünstigen Lage (Auffahrt M9 in 3 Meilen) ist man auch schnell in Edinburgh (20 min), Stirling (20 min) oder auch Glasgow (1 h). Unsere Ferienwohnung hatte zwei Schlafzimmer (mit reichlich Platz für fünf Personen) im Obergeschoss, und einen kombinierten Wohn, Ess- und Küchenbereich unten. Hinten gibt es eine Terrasse, vorn kann man auch draußen sitzen. Die Linlithgow Cottages sind absolut empfehlenswert, insbesondere für Familien.

Great... will be back.
We haven't even left yet and we are thinking of booking again for the summer. The cottages are a but out of the way but once you've found them then they are ideal. Clean, spacious and well equipt and although we haven't met the others, the lemon drizzle they left for us wad very well received. It's quiet and out the way.

Well equiped cottage and friendly welcome
The cottaae is well placed for Edingburgh, and we went into town twice easily and cheaply by train. The station is just a few minutes drive from the cottage, which is in a nice spot in the quiet countryside near the intersting small town of Linithgow. Linithgow has an interesting Palace, a canal and is near a good country park The cottage is in the top range of equipment, and has comfotable spacious accomadation, though the bedding was too ot for this time of year. There was no blanket to replace the 10.5 tog duvert so we were hot.It is dark in the cottage downsairs which we found unpleasant. The cottage is marketed as dog friendly, but the garden is not securely fenced and there are notices asking to keep dogs on lead outside, and downstairs, but there is no door on the stairs so this is almost impossible. We found it a nuisance to keep putting the dog on the lead to take her out.
