Cottage vacation rentals in South Lanarkshire

My favourite Air BnB i have stayed in so far. It is newly opened so everything is fresh and new, however it is on an existing bed and breakfast space which has a beautiful garden which is well maintained and the inn itself is well looked after, the leads me to believe even after it has been open for some time, Alan will keep the place well looked after. The host, Alan, was a lovely gentleman, you can tell he cares for his business and enjoys hosting, on arrival he gave us local recommendations for food and even the best way to travel in to Edinburgh. During our stay in the separate building to the inn we felt we had our own private space, the hot tub is located on the opposite side to the inn, so you are private to other guests in the separate building. 5/5 starts for everything! Thank you Alan for being a fabulous host

We had a wonderful experience at this Airbnb! The property was immaculate and exactly as described in the listing. The host was incredibly responsive and made the check-in process seamless. The location was perfect—close to local attractions yet nestled in a quiet neighbourhood, providing a peaceful retreat. All amenities were in excellent condition, and the thoughtful touches throughout the home made my stay even more comfortable. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a cosy and convenient stay.

beautiful cottage with absolutely wonderful views! the animals were such a nice treat to see every morning - we especially loved the little barn cats that came to the door once or twice 🥰

A tranquil and peaceful stay in this spacious and well equipped cottage. We were well looked after by Jenny and co. and felt totally relaxed. Enjoyed our interactions with farm life, which included birthing a lamb, petting the donkies and seeing the newborn kittens, it made our stay very special. The house is well located for trips into Edinburgh and Glasgow, or to enjoy nearby countryside. You won't regret it!

Idiotic location close to amenities. The cottage was private and ideal for dogs. Fiona, met us on arrival and helped us unload the car. All that is described on the website is accurate and true. We had a great stay and look forward to the next time.

The location was ideal and allowed us to explore the local area. Michelle was extremely helpful and always responded swiftly to messages. The cottage was clean and comfortable with amazing views across the valley.

Our stay was fantastic and the communication was amazing. We had 2 children & a dog with us and the attention to detail for things we might need was impeccable 😊 All of the little extras - easter eggs and activity packs for the children as we stayed easter weekend, are what makes a place stand apart. The house is beautiful and lots of space. I can't speak highly enough of our experience. Will definitely be back 😀

Beautiful house with friendly and responsive hosts who provided us space to have our planned yoga class on the Saturday. They also provided heaters for us as the house got a little chilly. The beds were comfy and bathrooms and kitchen really clean. The location is lovely and peaceful! The location is a bit tricky to find as the postcode isn’t very accurate but we found it with the help of the hosts. We enjoyed our stay, thank you Barrie for being helpful!

Lovely comfy cottage in a peaceful countryside location. Had everything we needed and looked just like the pictures. Beds were super comfy and the fenced in garden was great for our dog. Only about 10 minutes away from West Calder which is really convenient for getting the train in to Edinburgh. Would definitely book again.

For those seeking a retreat where they can disconnect from the noise and reconnect with nature, this cottage is an ideal choice. It offers a perfect blend of comfort and solitude, making it a memorable escape into the serenity of the wilderness.

We stayed at the Granary for the weekend and had such a lovely stay. So peaceful and a lovely view. Amazing surroundings. Enclosed garden perfect for dogs. And having the horses right next to the cottage was lovely. The cottage has loads of space and beds were really comfortable too. A little hamper on arrival including treats for the dogs was a lovely touch too. We would love to come back!

We had the most wonderful stay at Blackside Cottage and can’t recommend it highly enough. From the moment we arrived, it was clear how much care and attention Andrew and Elizabeth put into making the place welcoming, comfortable, and beautifully presented. The cottage itself is immaculate – stylishly decorated, cozy, and fully equipped with everything we needed. The kitchen was a real highlight – far better stocked than most places we’ve stayed – and the log-burning fire made our evenings incredibly relaxing. The setting is just magical. Peaceful, private, and surrounded by stunning countryside, it was the perfect place to switch off and unwind. The freestanding bath was a real luxury – perfect for a long soak after a day of exploring. Andrew and Elizabeth were brilliant hosts. Everything was smooth from booking to check-out. This place is a real gem!

The cottage was real find. Cosy, comfortable and in a great spot in a heritage village. ( Don't miss the trail) Julie was communicative at all times and even offered us a later checkout. Thankyou, we'll hopefully be back.

This is a really lovely, very well equipped, cottage. Lovely and clean, with free toiletries and comfy bed. There are 2 rooms, living and dining, as well as the kitchen, so there's plenty of space to move around. It's set in a very peaceful area and, as I think another guest has commented, all the local people are incredibly friendly. The Mining Museum is just a few minutes walk away and I highly recommend the Visitor Centre, the tour and the cafe. Again, everyone here is lovely. The host left a very good folder with every bit of information you could possibly need on holiday, and she was responsive, friendly and helpful. I was genuinely sad to leave. Thank you, Ruby, for a lovely stay.

We stayed 5 nights the end of May when all the flowering shrubs were in bloom. Its was truly a beautiful scene. We liked the quiet nature for walks on the property. We did some cycling trips from there also using the local train and cycle shop rental. The kitchen was great though we didn’t cook much. The local golf course had great food(vegan too) so we ate there several times. Everyone was so friendly in West Calder. We enjoyed a cosey fire one night. Nicola was very friendly, quick to respond for small stuff she rectified. I would love to return.

Lovely home in a small village. Great base for a visit to Scotland.

stayed there as was working in the area with 3 colleagues, great place and what a wonderful area to stay in, everything was as explained, if ever in the area in future would definitely stay again, highly recommend 👌

A perfect, getaway. I stayed here for work so didn’t get to spend much time in the property. In addition to a footless property with already made beds, the host left me some food which was very welcomed after a late check in. Incredible hiking!!

Very happy with this accommodation. Met up with our brother and sister in law who were also in Scotland at the same time as us. We are all on holidays from Australia. Oak Cottage was lovely, the kitchen is spacious and really well equipped. The lounge is also very comfortable with some books and games. We were all impressed by the quality, space and furnishings. Had everything we wanted for dining and cooking up hearty meals. It was so beautifully warm too, especially when we arrived and it was misty rain and cold outside. The welcome pack was also appreciated. Thank you so much. We have no hesitation in recommending this accommodation.

Really nice location, cottage was warm, comfortable and well equipped. Would highly recommend.
