A gem. My family and I spent our last night in Scotland in this beautiful place. The owners are the sweetest human. The house is absolutely beautiful. The deer and sheep land behind the house in this magical Scottish valley is breathtaking. The food perfect. The bed comfortable. I wish we had spent way more days in this little paradise. I absolutely recommend.

I cannot rave highly enough about our stay! It was outstanding. One of the best places we have ever stayed. Welcoming, sweet, clean, comfortable, beautiful. I wish we could find some way to make it be our home base for the rest of our travels in Scotland. James was lovely and all our food needs (vegan, GF, vegetarian) for 4 people were thoughtfully accommodated. I can't say enough good things. Just ACE! Unforgettable stay. Thank you!

Wonderful B&B and location

Wonderful stay. Hosts were so friendly and helpful. Wish we had stayed longer. Room was very comfortable and quiet country location but only 12 minutes to the airport. Would never have guessed you were that close.

Beyond our wildest expectations.

An absolutely superb b & b, possibly the best we've ever stayed in. The hosts have thought of everything, from the dedicated gadget charging stations to the comprehensive in-room consumables. It's in a peaceful location on the edge of a country estate and we were able to watch the deer from our room. No matter how hard we try we cannot find a single fault with this accommodation. Give it a go, you won't be disappointed.

Stayed overnight while travelling through the area. Fantastic B&B! Lovely room with great view. Breakfast was great. Host helpful - he told me about facilities and the area, and helped out a fellow guest whose plans had changed. Photo is of the sunrise from the field directly behind the building.

Best B&B Ever

James and Angela have a beautiful B&B in a fabulous location. It is spotlessly clean, very welcoming and friendly. James makes an excellent breakfast. They really make their guests feel at home, even allowing the kitchen to be used. Definitely coming back! We even had sheep and deer grazing in the back.

Welcoming

Amazing B&B. The hosts could not have been more gracious and welcoming. This cottage is set very near (or, on - not really sure) the Hopetoun Estate. Go through the gate in the yard and you are permitted to wander/stroll through the fields of the estate. Plenty of sheep and hundreds of deer to see on this walk. The hosts live next door. The first night we had the entire cottage to ourselves. The cottage is very warm, welcoming, and lovely. The kitchen was available for our use. The dining room is fully stocked with beverages, snacks, books, games, and movies. My child was sick one day, so we sat in the kitchen all afternoon playing board games. Mr. Gourlay came in the mornings to make a full Scottish breakfast if that was your desire. He had plenty of other options, too. I thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. I did not know that this is an area of interest for Outlander fans. He had plenty of advise for those guests, as well. We had 2 rooms to accommodate our family. The rooms and bathroom were spacious and were furnished nicely. Each room had a tea kettle, tea, water, and snacks if you didn't want to go down to the kitchen to help yourself. You can tell that the host, Mr. Gourley, really enjoys his B&B in all of the special touches he provides. This was a lovely stay in lovely place in a very lovely setting.
