"Far better than staying in a hotel if you're doing business in Edinburgh"

Only minor comment, we washed up - couldn't find a tea towel to dry the plates/cutlery? :)

"Opulent Cottage atop a hill, affording panoramic views"

9.0

Location - perched atop a hill next to a small pond, the views are pleasant to the eye. My daughter & wife were thrilled to see the occasional rabbits scurrying through the local vegetation. The hoose is spacious, comfortable and, might I add, opulent. It made for an interesting topic of discussion with my teenage daughter as to what medical professions & corresponding renumeration could facilitate such a lifestyle.

It was initially a bit difficult to find. The staff @ the vu all seemed preoccupied with an ongoing wedding. Wedding traffic - understandably an important event, however it made the area busy, screaming playful kids in particular. If I had known of the wedding booking beforehand, I might not have booked. We had hoped for a private quiet time. Presence of fecal material (dog poo?) right next to the couple of benches in front of the 'hoose' spoilt our plans to sit in front of the pond and enjoy the views.

"10/10"

10.0

Absolutely stunning. Definitely has the wow factor. The property has a high quality fit out. With views to match. The bed in the master bedroom is huge and very comfy.

Being a wedding venue opposite in the centre of the lake, the last night was very loud and arguments. Late at night woke us all up. Didn't ruin the stay by any means, it was lovely, it's just not ideal when up early for work.
