Cottage holiday rentals in Straiton

A very beautiful cottage in a private setting. We were met by George on arrival. George was very friendly and informative. We instantly felt right at home. Welcome basket on the kitchen table was a lovely touch. We settled in very quickly and with ease as parking was right outside the cottage. We enjoyed the very clean hot tub in the evenings after our busy days out as well as excellent carryout deliveries. Quality of food was very good. Another highlight was watching the various types of birds feeding, which we could see from the kitchen table and seating area. Especially the Woodpecker which made a regular appearance. We all enjoyed a truly relaxing break in very comfortable and private surroundings. Our check-in and check-out was effortless. Thank you George and Amanda, we will certainly be back.

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.

An absolute stunning break, our third time here. A quiet, comfortable home and a spectacular garden space for my autistic son to be himself, and my 3 Chihuahuas felt like they were in heaven. The hot tub was well used, even my elderly mum had a go. We had some lovely visits to the surrounding areas but mostly enjoyed the rest and relaxation that we all needed. We can’t wait to come back again.

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 .

Kathryn’s stay was lovely! Perfect location if you’re looking at heading to Keswick and climbing Scafell pike only 40mins drive to Seathwaite route. Beautiful home and lovely Hotub! Hosts very responsive to our messages.

What an amazing place! Susan’s home was lovely and located on a beautiful dairy farm. We were immediately welcome by her cats Lucky and Clover (who we adopted for our stay). Susan was always available to answer our questions and took us on a tour of the farm to meet the cows. The house was about 7 minutes from a great village called cockermouth which had pubs, restaurants and many bakeries. A little further and you are in keswick which is one of the bigger towns. We took a boat from there across derwentwater to the famous Catbells and also took a rowboat out on the lake. We also went for a beautiful walk around buttermere lake and a hike into the borrowdale valley. And we even popped over the border into Scotland. It was an amazing trip and a wonderful place to stay. Thank you Susan!!

We absolutely loved our stay here, the hot tub made it even better. Place was immaculately clean, no faults what so ever. Basic kitchen equipment which is all you need for a few days away. Plenty of restaurants, take aways and shop within the area if you’re driving so was able to have the option there if we fancied. Access was easy and it was easy to find, we both liked how it wasn’t on a public road etc and it was so peaceful at night. We were lucky to be able to see a sunset on our first night and that was fantastic, being able to be in the hot tub and have those views was just unreal. Even on our second night the weather wasn’t the best we still loved every minute of it. We cannot recommend this enough, we will definitely be back! Thank you both again

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

We had a fabulous stay in a great cottage with a superb host and in beautiful surroundings. We would have no hesitation in staying again. Many thanks

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.

Really great cottage in a beautiful setting. Superb hosts who went above and beyond. Thank you. We will definitely visit again x

Luxurious accommodation in stunning location. The open plan cottage with beautiful views and bedroom on mezzanine floor gives a feeling of complete luxury - beautiful furniture-well fitted kitchen and extremely comfortable bed and bedding. Stayed here for 2 nights at the end of road trip for NC500 to visit family - so not much time to explore but will definitely be back and stay for longer next time. Extremely good value

We had a 3 night stay here, first impressions were that it is very clean and well equipped. The cottage is in a really lovely setting with great views, very private with very few houses in sight but close enough to amenities. We found it easy to find and was able to park right outside the front door. Being greeted by the chickens everytime we came back to the cottage was brilliant 😂 We have 2 young boys so even when we weren't out being tourists we could take them out and have a look at the horses, sheep, goats, chickens and cows. The tractor was also a hit with them! I'd definitely recommend the Cheese house to anyone and will keep it on our saved list for the future. Thanks very much Zan and Joe for a fantastic stay.

Great location as 2 min walk to all amenities. Lovely wee house which was lovely and clean with everything you would need for a self catering stay .

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 .

We had a wonderful stay at Blackside Cottage. Andrew and Elizabeth couldn't have been more accommodating and they had anticipated all of our needs and gone out of their way to provide everything possible for our dogs too. The cottage is spotlessly clean and tidy with lovely homely touches and a superbly stocked kitchen..We were eating out but I would have been able to cook virtually anything quite happily. The bedroom is roomy and comfortable and the views are lovely. We can thoroughly recommend a stay here and hope to return for a longer stay soon.

There was everything we could possibly need in the cottage which is so tastefully furnished including two reclining chairs in the conservatory which is where we spent most of our time. Even on the days it rained we could relax in the conservatory, reading or doing a jigsaw, and unwind. Gina and her husband are very friendly and helpful, making us feel at home. If we could give it six stars we would!

Drumla Cottage is a beautiful place and the views are stunning. Catherine is very friendly and couldn't have been more helpful throughout our stay. Everything that we needed was available at the cottage and it could not be faulted.

Accommodation was booked for colleagues for business purposes. Everything was exactly as described and suited out needs perfectly. Very friendly host and communicative hosts. Would definitely stay here again!

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.

Booked for colleagues, the cottage is very clean, comfortable and and well equipped. Liz was extremely helpful and quick to response with our queries. We will book again when back in the area.

We loved staying at Louise's place for a night as we travelled up the west coast. Check in was easy and everything was nice and clean when we arrived. The garden in the back is lovely and the two woodburners give a lovely cottage feel to the place.

We had a great stay for 5 nights in total, this AirBnB was in a very nice spot and it had everything we could need/want. Caroline and Stephen were great hosts, very responsive and approachable if we had any questions. Check in was flexible and worked well. Caroline made sure the place would meet our needs as we have a baby (which it did). Overall a very enjoyable holiday. Caroline and Stephen gave us advice on nice places to visit and it has ready access to the Dunoon ferry and the Highlands. Would throughly recommend!

We loved it here. So quiet and pretty. This has clearly been a passion project for Amanda with the attention to detail second-to-none. From the fresh peonies, to the home made cake (which I must ask for the recipe for), to the complimentary toiletries, jar of sweets, milk in the fridge, tea, coffee, olive oil, games toys, books - I could go on and on about all of the little things that were there to greet us. We have not stayed in such a well equipped Airbnb before to-be-honest. The Cart Shed was so comfortable and nicely decorated/finished that even after a v long journey, we were immediately able to relax. Absolutely loved it. We were visiting family nearby and this is definitely going to be our future base. When I think about it, even if we didn't have family near by, we would happily go there again, just to relax in the cottage. :-) Looking forward to our next trip immensely. :-)
