Lovely cottage with hot tub, garden & sauna | Pets are welcome

Delightful, boutique hut, nestled in an idyllic countryside position in the private orchard of a 60-acre working equestrian centre, with a local polo club and trout fishery less than 1 mile away. The picture-postcard coastal villages of South Queensferry (2 miles) and North Queensferry (5 miles) boast an array of quality eateries, coffee shops, friendly inns, bespoke shops, beaches and the Fife Coastal Path to explore, as well as the award-winning Deep-Sea World. The elegant city of Edinburgh is only 7 miles away and is easily accessible by train (3 miles) or park-and-ride (6 miles). Edinburgh offers an abundance of leisure facilities and attractions including Edinburgh Castle, National Art Galleries, Royal Botanic Gardens and renowned festivals including the Fringe, Tattoo, Christmas Market, Murrayfield rugby matches, and an array of concerts and events. Or visit the Kelpies, Falkirk Wheel (15 miles), and Knockhill Racing Circuit (17 miles). Step inside this charming and luxurious shepherd's hut from the secluded, enclosed garden into the open-plan living area. Relax on the comfortable chairs after a day out exploring the coast or city and watch a great movie on the Smart TV. Cook up a storm in the well-equipped kitchen area. Enjoy romantic moments in the dining area and plan the day ahead. The comfortable bedroom area has a lovely king-size bed with ample storage space. Completing the accommodation is the gorgeous shower room with a large shower cubicle and WC. Outside, in the fully enclosed garden, there is an outdoor dining area with a Weber charcoal BBQ and a bistro set for al fresco dining or lazy evening stargazing, with a lovely fire pit – ideal for those cooler evenings. There is also a wood-fired private hot tub to relax and unwind in, and a sauna just a short stroll away on the other side of the orchard. Set inside a 60 acre working equestrian yard with beautiful landscape views, guests may enjoy wandering over to see the horses grazing in their paddocks or watch horses being trained in the nearby arenas – and on occasion, you may be lucky enough to catch a small dressage or show jumping competition taking place during your stay (once a month).
