We had a totally relaxing time in this superb cottage, surrounded by superb scenery.. We were made to feel so welcome by the owners and the cottage had everything you could possibly need. Will certainly look to stay again.

My wife and I have been doing this for over 20 years and this accommodation is probably the best we have ever stayed in.. The photos don’t really do it justice and we both wish we could have stayed longer.

Great cottage, we were made so welcome by a gorgeous Christmas tree and even a present for our little boy.. The cottage was so well equipped and spotlessly clean. We had a brilliant Christmas break.

This wonderful cottage has all the conveniences of a 'home from home' and is set in a secluded area that is ideal for lovers of the countryside .. It is also a great base from which to see all the surrounding area being only about 25 miles from Edinburgh and the great shopping and sights.

I booked this cottage which on your site said NO PETS, I never book any holiday homes that accept pets as I am allergic to dog hair.. When we arrived, in the instruction folder left on the kitchen table it was stated “ DO NOT ALLOW YOUR DOGS UPSTAIRS IN THE BEDROOMS. I then checked on sites other than Sykes and found that they ALL advertised Grieves Cottage as PETS YES. This is absolutely unacceptable, please respond to this immediately.

What a fantastic stay! It was so relaxing as it is in a quiet area and the stream running nearby makes the place even more tranquil. The owner is lovely, leaving some provisions for our arrival. It was a great base to visit all the tourist attractions that we wanted to see. We found the cottage to be fully equipped, modern and very clean. We couldn't have asked for more.

Due to rural location post code is not end destination.. So when I ran Sykes office they were not very forth coming on getting a more pinpoint location. It took me a long time to convince the lazy phone operator to contact the owner to supply better description as was travelling late so would not be able to ask passersbys. Great cottage and owner, but poor back office.

Ms Wagstaffe

The cottage was in a quiet and peaceful location but not far from great walks and other places to explore.. The cottage itself was newly refurbished and was really lovely, with a rather nice secluded garden, which the photos do not do justice to. We had a great week here and would happily return. Owners were welcoming and helpful. Thank you for a lovely 6 days.

Cottage is beautiful and the hosts very warm welcoming and very helpful.. The area is a hidden gem and we all had a fantastic week. We would absolutely recommend the cottage to anyone but please for those who stay here look after it so others can enjoy as well.

Lovely welcoming & cosy cottage in a great location.. We were the first to stay in this cottage, so everything was new, fresh and clean! The owners were very friendly and helpful if we needed anything. Would definitely stay there again and have recommended to family and friends.
