Summary: Excellent
Daniel S. Jun 2, 2025 01:10:47 AM
Summary: Lovely location as a base for hiking in the south of Scotland in the Clyde River valley. The cottage has three nice size bedrooms (we used two) with comfortable beds and a kitchen with all the basics. Fiona is a responsive host with good recommendations for hikes and local restaurants.

John B. Sep 4, 2024 11:06:45 PM
Summary: Lovely cottage, tucked amongst the trees providing a peaceful and secluded stay. Cottage has everything you need and more, wood burner was great and logs provided. Fiona was lovely and helpful pointing out out local places of interest like Biggar and Peebles but cottage is well located for the larger cities if that’s what you’re looking for. Thanks for having us.
Janet S. Aug 30, 2024 10:36:16 PM
Summary: Lovely spacious well equipped cottage in peaceful location ideal for a relaxing break.
Karen H. Aug 30, 2024 05:25:19 PM
Summary: This cottage was lovely and peaceful. It had everything we needed. The beds were very comfortable which made a nice change! We would get the bus into Biggar for dinner in the evenings which was perfect as only 10 mins away. Using the car in the day was also easy to get to Lanark or Biggar where parking is free. I grew up in Lanark so loved seeing Tinto where I would climb many a time as a child. (Perfect for any hikers.) I highly recommend this cottage and would definitely stay again.
Serena C. Aug 17, 2024 12:12:30 AM
