This is a lovely place to stay, a beautifully modernised traditional stone building with attractive views through trees and across farmland to Cockleroy Hill and Beecraigs Country Park, yet on the edge of town so in touch with all Linlithgow has to offer. It is sparklingly clean and comfortable - a very welcoming cottage to return to.
