Absolutely lovely cottage. The location, amenities and host just great. The cottage has lots of little details that make it extra special and the bed was so comfortable! A great spot for a relaxing retreat and/or exploring beautiful East Lothian.

This cottage is absolutely beautiful. Trudi has thought of absolutely everything, from little doggie biscuits to slippers and bathrobes, it really felt like a luxury hotel. We grabbed fish and chips from Dunbar and spent Saturday evening curled up in front of the TV with a glass of wine – and then I treated myself to a long soak in the huge bath tub! It was perfect and we’d highly recommend staying here

We really enjoyed our stay in the cottage. It was very clean and had everything we could have needed for our stay. The log fire was a real treat, as were the luxurious bath and showers. Beds were comfy and kitchen was well equipped, and the cottage was very easy to find. We had a fab day out at East Links Family Park which i’d highly recommend, and beautiful countryside. Trudi was a brilliant, communicative and helpful host – she even showed us around the farm before we left, which our toddler loved. All in all, a great find and we will definitely be back – in fact, we didn’t really want to leave!

Relaxing cosy cottage break.

This was just what we needed to step back from the day to day hubbub of city life. A gem of a discovery for us.

The cottage was immaculate and the fire was stoked ready to go.
A perfect stay.

What a beautiful cottage this is. We were blown away by the decor and cleanliness. Most of all the host, Trudi, was amazing. Nothing was too much trouble, she even rescued my husband from being stranded in the snow!
We will definitely be staying again.

Trudi’s cottage was perfect for our weekend escape. The bedrooms were comfortable and well equipped, the showers and bath were amazing and the addition of extra luxuries such as robes/slippers and lovely soaps/shampoos was an added bonus. We had a lovely, relaxing weekend at the cottage. It was nice to escape the stresses of everyday life!
