The 3 bedroom cottage is ideal for a family of 5 with two dogs.

The shower room has a larger double shower base and again has been well finished with a touch of modern style. The living room will prove to be a favourite place for the whole family with the wood burning stove and smart TV - just in case the weather isn’t the nicest! The modern kitchen is well equipped and fitted with appliances including a dishwasher and coffee machine - just to make things that little bit easier. Outside the garden provides a lovely peaceful place for the kids to play and enjoying some sunshine. A BBQ, firepit and garden furniture may make you want to change your plans and simply stay and enjoy the cottage.

We enjoyed our stay at seton hill cottage.Great location with excellent walks from the cottage. Well equipped with everything you need. Station to Edinburgh or North Berwick 5 minute drive away. Longniddry station car park gets busy. Luckily we have an electric car and only spaces were for electric charging which is very reasonably priced.

We had a wonderful holiday. Cara and Sandy were excellent hosts and were very generous in the treats they left for us. The cottage was so cosy and comfortable, the perfect place to return to after a long day sightseeing in Edinburgh. The drive to Longniddry and the subsequent train we caught to Edinburgh was seamless. So much nicer and more affordable than staying in the city itself. The cottage was incredibly clean and well equipped, we’d definitely like to return soon. We found Edinburgh Zoo, and Rosslyn Chapel particularly brilliant. Thank you for such a lovely time.

Host were extremely friendly, and the photos don't do the cottage justice. It's incredible. We will 100% be coming back. The garden was fantastic and secure for the dogs we had with us. Location was excellent, Easy to get into Edinburgh on the train and the station is free to park. Beaches a short drive away from the cottage. The cottage itself is stunning, so much bigger than it seems. Would highly recommend this place to anyone wanting a getaway with their dogs and friends!
