Highly recommend
Spotlessly clean when we arrived. Lots of room for clothes etc. and for storing suitcases. Great having the use of a dishwasher and washer for the week. Beautiful quiet location, can highly recommend this place. Great for me being disabled with the downstairs bedroom and bathroom.

Just what we wanted
We arrived a bit early & it wasnt any problem for Jim, who met us, in the rain. Inside after a little tour & info on the workings of the gas stove, lights,door keys etc, we unloaded & just relaxed. Looking out at the sheeo pastures & the 360 views itvwas amazing.! The drive up the hill was a bit scary, but after a few trios up/ down we adjusted. House was lovely. Everything clean & neat. Im sad we didn't have time to put the living room back together, as we needed to be to the airport so early. Left them a bottle of wine to say thank you & forgot to leave a note of thanks. So " Thamk you"!!!

Wonderful idyllic cottage
This was a wonderful cottage and a beautiful setting. It was extremely clean and well equipped. The owner was delightful and very helpful.It should be noted that there is no dryer or hot tub. But there was a rack to dry clothes on and they dried quickly. Also, you need to take your own bath soap. It was very up-to-date and the view from your window was gorgeous. Lambs scampering about and a beautiful view of the valley. We were extremely happy with our location.

The cottages are located in a beautiful area with an amazing view of the hills. We were really happy to spend our days here and we had the pleasure to meet the host in person and it has been a wonderful experience.
Thank you so much for making our stay such a wonderful and special experience.

One of the best!
The accommodation is clean, quiet and has all you need. Everything worked, the hosts were great. They checked we were OK and then left us to ourselves.
It's a great area to explore as well.
We can definitely recommend a stay here.
Neil & Teresa
5 of us stayed here Monday to Thursday, we were all very impressed with the cottage, and the views around it were spectacular. There was everything you could need for a stay here.
The fishing lake, just a few yards from the cottage was beautiful, even if you don't fish, was lovely to walk around. The town of Linlithgow was just a couple of miles away, with an historical palace to visit, good rail links to Edinburgh and Glasgow and good restaurants and shops.
I would highly recommend these cottages, they are a great find. Enjoy!!

Amazing location
The cottage was central for everywhere we wanted to go and was near to the train station for easy access into Edinburgh.
Having 3 double bedrooms and 3 bathrooms is very unusual and it made life so much easier for everyone.

Great time
Enjoyed the country atmosphere. Walks around the lake. Conversation with locals, etc. Very relaxing after spending days sightseeing in the area.
Country isolation less than 1/2 hour from Edinburgh.
A week that had almost all we needed. 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms make it ideal for a larger family. Trout fishing within 50 feet of the cottage.
Only weakness was the beds are low (ikea type) and are well passed their comfort guarantee.

Absolutely beautiful
This cottage was a great surprise and absolutely beautiful. If you’re ready to disconnect from social media and take a break from our fast paced lives, this cottage is the answer. I rated communications with property manager less than 5 stars as we had difficulty reaching Jim and no information was provided ahead of time as to how to get there and the check in process. Since we were traveling via London from the US, this was unsettling. However once we made contact with him, they were extremely responsive to our needs and questions. A fantastic location and we would definitely return.

Wonderful location and fabulous cottage
We loved Carriber Cottage - spotlessly clean, spacious. well equipped, modern, comfortable and convenient. You can park right outside, walk to the fishing lake or drive to Linlithgow station to take the train quickly into Edinburgh. Three large bedrooms and three full bathrooms - and the Feb a hot tub you can use. If you're driving up to Scotland it's ideal as a beautiful base to stay and explore from. Jim greeeted us on arrival and was friendly and welcoming. What a great find.
Clean, comfy and lots of living space. Super kitchen and bathroom facilities and proximity to places of interest. The biggest attraction was the view from all aspects...so peaceful...and the walk around the fishing lake-fabulous!
Our dog loved it too and she's fussy!
We could have stayed forever!
