Cottage rentals with a hot tub

Scaurbridge Cottage with HotTub, Sauna & Open Fire
Beautiful little cottage. Loads to do without leaving the front door including hot tub, fire and BBQ. Area and garden is stunning! Jane was very helpful and communicative on check in and check out, very friendly! Clean and as described in photos.

Gorgeous country apartment w/ hot tub & log burner
Our stay lived up to high expectations. Ainslie went over and above with decorations for my boyfriend’s birthday; welcome notes; homemade cake; fizz and ice in the fridge. She was warm and welcoming, and we felt completely relaxed. So grateful for such a lovely stay in a beautiful area. We will definitely be back! Thank you Ainslie 🥰🤩🥳

The Arches
The Arches was a lovely place to stay. Very comfortable space which allowed us to really relax and switch off. We particularly liked the hot tub and, due to the amazing weather while we were there, we even got to sit in the private courtyard and eat breakfast outdoors. The property has everything you could need. Good kitchen and comfy sofa in the living room. The bed is very comfortable and huge! Fab shower and bath set up. We enjoyed a walk up the hill where the views were stunning. Would recommend this walk. We went into Cupar for lunch one day and ate in the Boudingait which was very tasty food. Would recommend. We would definitely return to The Arches. We’ve been to a lot of AirBnB properties and this is up there with the best we’ve been to. Thank you!

Self contained cottage private garden and hot tub
Absolutely loved my 2 night stay, felt like I was in complete luxury ✨️ Was spotless, modern, amazing bathroom & facilities! Bed was so comfortable, hot tub was easy to heat, the little on site pub was brilliant fun!

Coastal cottage with stunning view.
I absolutely loved this serene little guesthouse tucked away just outside of Edinburgh. It was very nice, clean, and functional for our family group. It was easy to navigate from there to surrounding areas by car. Ali was so personable and friendly! Truly a pleasure to stay here, and we would gladly stay again!

Pentland Hills cottage hideaway
Had a lovely stay at this cottage . Near to Edinburgh as my son was doing the marathon but in a lovely location . Kylie was response to our messages and a lovely homemade loaf gave that extra touch for our arrival . Would definitely recommend and stay again .

Cottage with hot tub near Stirling
We had a really lovely stay at the cottage, and as others have said the games room is fabulous fun, the horses were a huge hit with our kids, and we thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub after a fun day out! Thank you again Helen and family for a super place to relax and have great fun. We really enjoyed our visit.

Manse Brae Cottage
Great place to stay. Joanne was very friendly and responsive. Lots of great walks in the local area. Would definitely recommend.

Cutest Wee Cottage on the Kintyre Coast
The cottage was perfect , so well equipped and cosy. The bed was incredibly comfortable with gorgeous linen. Plenty of towels and little extras. We didn’t need to use the log burners as was great weather but must be lovely in both rooms with the burners on. We had a slight issue with hot water and Diane drove from Glasgow to resolve the problem for us Amazing service by Diane who was so friendly and helpful. Loved our stay here. Lovely walks and beaches around plus a great visit to the Isle of Gigha.

The Coach House at Hawkstone Lodge
We both had a fantastic stay at the Coach House. Marjorie and Ronny were both very welcoming. A perfect location for visiting the island, with great views of the Clyde.

Ramble & Fell
We had a great stay at Hilltop, it's a lovely cottage. I was able to have breakfast outside every day of my stay which was a real luxury for me. We did some great hikes too venturing to the Borrowdale valley with its stunning views and even went down to the beach one day. Good communication with Natasha as well, would definitely reccomend.

The Steading @braighbhaille
A charming cottage, easy to reach but nicely hidden in woodland and with a garden overlooking the loch. Lovely! Faye has done her best to keep it spotless and decorate it nicely. It’s a good place from where to discover the gorgeous lochs, the magnificent Highlands and their charming and romantic castles, of which Inveraray’s is definitely worth a visit! By the way, the small town also offers a classic pub with good food, a more upscale fish restaurant and a small supermarket with very friendly personel. We recomand booking here!

2 bedroom renovated barn with sea views
A lovely spacious property, ideal for dogs with plenty of room indoors and out for them while we humans relaxed. The owner was really friendly with a dog of his own. The property had all the facilities for our needs and we had a relaxing time. It was lovely to see the beautiful view of Arran as we laid in bed.

Puddleduck cottage - quiet village with pub&walks
Alison is a delightful lady. So kind and helpful. Her cottage ( we stayed in Jemima Puddleduck) was very comfortable. Beds and pullows especially and all spotlessly clean. All we needed was provided Alison had thought of everything. We had a fantastic week. Thank you.

Detached Lodge House, Sleeps 4
Peel lodge was just a perfect stay for us. We were near to one of our daughters who was preparing for her imminent wedding. But also easy access to go exploring for our future home. The lodge was clean and tidy on our arrival . We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay here and would highly recommend .

Estate cottage in extensive gardens.
Lovely place to stay. Karen made us feel welcome from the start meeting us with her two dogs and making sure that all was ok. She had left us and our dogs some treats which were very much appreciated. The location is a 5-10minute drive from Moffat where there are a lot of dog friendly restaurants and some lovely riverside walks. A lovely stay

MacKenzie Cottage on Blairquhan Castle Estate
Booked the stay for 4 members of my team. They couldn’t have spoken more highly of the property. Clean, well appointed and perfect for what they needed after a long day.

Sunnyside Cottage, Straiton
We had a lovely, relaxing stay at Sunnyside. The cottage was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed - probably the most well-stocked Air BnB I’ve stayed in. The milk and snacks left for our arrival were an added bonus. Communication with Peter was excellent and there was lots of helpful information in the booklet. The garden leading down to the river was very picturesque and peaceful. We enjoyed really nice walks around the village using one of the many guides in the cottage, and day trips including Kircudbright, the coast and Glasgow. We also enjoyed making use of the record player and Scrabble in the cottage in the evenings after a day exploring.

Fabulous Coastal Paths & Woodland Walks
Lovely peaceful stay in beautiful grounds. Lots of walks on the private grounds including walk to their private beach. Very tranquil and special place. We did a few day trips including Ayr PortPatrick some local areas for nice restaurants. My son loves football and we went to see local town Stranraer play on his birthday and they won. We saw lots of deer and nature everywhere. Children loved the zip wire and there was a games room which we didn’t manage to get to. Kate and Angus couldn’t have been more helpful, lots of great recommendations and wonderful welcome hamper which was delicious and appreciated. Beautiful place and private grounds bigger than expected. We were sad to leave and miss the lovely scenery. Thanks so much for a memorable trip.

The Wash House: a Cosy Romantic Countryside Escape
Beautiful little house in a peacefully place. With sheep and cows around the place, it’s a very calm and resting place. I clearly recommend this wonderful house.

Cosy Self-Enclosed Gamekeeper's Cabin Near Biggar
A lovely cosy little cabin in beautiful grounds of a large home, the gardens are gorgeous and I enjoyed walking around them and greeting the chickens. It was really nice to have a good log burner and wood in the living space, and a comfortable bed. Well equipped, lovely place and would stay again if in the area.

Romantic cottage with stunning Views
Lovely place to stay. Absolutely loved the view from the conservatory and the garden was gorgeous. The kitchen is clearly a cooks kitchen - very well equipped! Location is great. Felt like we were in the middle of nowhere but we were only 10-15 minutes from anything we needed. About 12 minutes from Eskbank Station and then a 20 minute train ride from Waverley.

Holly Tree Cottage
The cottage is full of character and very cosy. It’s in a great location with fantastic walks on the doorstep. Bea was at the cottage when we arrived. She was super helpful with advice and very friendly. She was the perfect host. Would definitely recommend any one staying here.

Shepherd's Cottage
Dot and Dougie were excellent hosts. The cottage is spacious with lovely decor. We felt at home straight away. Delightful garden and views across the valley. Lovely walk from just across the road by a river and gorge. We'd certainly want to stay here again if we come back to Arran.
