Nothing to dislike. Everything was great.

Fantastic little cottage in private grounds,with plenty of space. We travelled with a dog,and there was plenty of space for her to run around. Just a few minutes walk up to the railway station which goes every hour into Edinburgh, way cheaper than driving in and parking. Great communication from the hosts, and would thoroughly recommend Highfield Cottage for anyone wishing to have a break in or around Edinburgh.

It would be nice if there was some art or tapestries, or even paint on the walls. It felt like sitting and sleeping in white boxes. Our voices echoed in the living/dining room; perhaps decor would help prevent that? It would make it feel homier, in any case. Still, for an inexpensive stay in the area, I can't complain too much. It's nice to be happy to go back home!

This self-check-in cottage is on a gorgeous property with lovely gardens and is perfectly located for a visit to Jupiter Artland. Communications were excellent, and Jill, the property owner, is so kind and welcoming in her approach. The cottage was spotless, had everything we needed for a two-night stay, and had heated bed pads with controls on each side so we could each pick the temperature we wanted (or didn't). There was also a woodstove with supplies provided, which was delightful.

Perfect location, lovely hosts, clean and comfortable.

The sofabed needs replacing and there is an intermittent issue with use of the oven, which can trip the electric (owner aware of issue)

Location was beautiful and provided easy access to Edinburgh. The cottage is clean and facilitated our requirements. Useful information folder. Friendly owners.

Very close to the train station. The cottage is a piece of history. The gardens are so lovely. Make me go back in time. Definitely a place worth to spend the nights. Very good communication with the host, friendly and happy to help. I recommend, you will not regret it.

Peaceful setting and stunning view from sitting room window of Forth Bridge and planes taking off and landing. Delightful garden with plenty of bird life.

2nd stay here very nice place very nice owners only thing I'd say is the heating clicks on and off and we didn't know how to fix it or if it was connected to the other house so it felt a wee bit damp and took a few tries to light the fire because the wood was damp. Other than that comfortable stay. Nice bonus was the electric blankets in the bed that make it all cosy.

Stayed in February 2023

Nothing, maybe just explanation that it is placed at back of the main house as we found it difficult to find

Very quiet, secluded with beautiful gardens well equipped and very clean Allowed dogs and had access to EV charger

Nothing negative about the property at all.

I liked the space aswell as it was very warm and comfortable & immaculately clean. All kitchen facilities you need so was happy to even have a full day in relaxing. Internet connection was good. When we couldn't use the new modern style cooker the lady came straight away to help and was very pleasant. Situated overlooking Nice gardens...even more amazing in the summer..but also its a lovely winter break too. Will definitely be going back there regularly.

not really much to say here loved it, but a wee poofy/stool in front of the sofa as I like to put my feet up. Also could do with some mats/coasters as was worried about marking the furniture.

no breakfast, as self catering, Owners were lovely, cottage excellent we even tried to book an extra night but it was already booked. Will definitely be back as also pet friendly will bring our cat next time. Perfectly located in a very quiet area, brilliant for a wee trip to my relatives in Broxburn, and to visit my Dad in his care home in Edinburgh. Rooms very spacious more than we needed, brilliant comfy cosy bed. Loved the wood-burning stove in the lounge. Nice modern Kitchen with all the amenities. Great stay.

I thought it was going to be a small old cottage and nothing modern however I was amazed once I got there. I didn't expect it to be so spacious, beautiful and modern. It looks so much better than in photos which was a surprising bonus.. The cottage had everything we could need for our stay. Lovely views too! Beautiful garden, plenty of parking space. Attached several pictures to the review to show how beautiful this place actually is. Definitely recommend it!

Lack of decor, bare walls. Maybe add some pictures/artwork. Sofa uncomfortable.

Great base to explore Edinburgh from. Train station to city centre only 100 yards away (but no train noise). Quiet picturesque location with everything you need in the property. Great communication from host.

Very beautiful place, had a blissful few days. Transport links to Edinburgh and surrounding area excellent, only 20 minutes by train to the centre city.

I Watch out for the shower haha I turned it on, it felt fine at first but then it burned my scalp. Keep it on the high button and have the dial before it points 12 like a clock. And it should be fine 😂

IThe pictures really don't do justice. Originally I booked the place for myself for comic con and then when I arrived I realised how massive the cottage actually is! So I invited my two close friends to stay with me and they had the sofa bed. The cottage had a mattress and extra bedding for the sofa bed which was handy while. I had the bedroom which was really spacious, comfortable big bed as well. Was lovely and quiet and very cosy so we really enjoyed the stay and will be keeping it in mind for future stays as it was 20 minutes away from our comic con venue abd shops close by. Your even ten minutes from Livingston shopping centre! Gardens were gorgeous and my friends found a tennis court which was a peasent surprise. We absolutely loved the cottage and it was spotless. We really have no complaints about it. Didn't take much photos and it won't let me share the video I took to show my friends but if you need a nice quiet place to stay for near Edinburgh without damaging your wallet this is the place. I'll most certainly be doing a solo stay at some point for some time away from the responsibilities of life ❤️
