Very comfortable, clean and well equipped property with plenty of room for the 2 of us. Good location just 2-3 miles from Linlithgow and its shops and cafes. Edinburgh and Glasgow are both within easy reach. We had a couple of issues during our stay which were dealt with quickly by Wesley and Ruth. From the car park the property is beyond 3/4 other cottages, something to bear in mind if carrying a lot of luggage. Nonetheless would recommend and return.
