An amazing stay. If you are looking for peace and quiet after a long day exploring the cities and travelling, this is a wonderful place to come back to and enjoy the serenity.Can not fault it at all. Close to the town of Linlithgow for all your supplies and close to a main freeway for travelling.

Easy to get to. Lovely peaceful surroundings in the country. Accommodation was very good and comfortable. Only one suggestion for improvement: include water glasses in the kitchen.Wi-Fi is currently patchy, but we were advised of this by the owner when we arrived. This was beyond the owner's control. It did not spoil our holiday or enjoyment for our stay.

Spotlessly clean when we arrived. Lots of room for clothes etc. and for storing suitcases. Great having the use of a dishwasher and washer for the week. Beautiful quiet location, can highly recommend this place. Great for me being disabled with the downstairs bedroom and bathroom.

It was amazing, only that we had to move on we would have stay there longer. Only 10mins to the shops and to the motorway. Peace and quiet. Would recommend it to everyone.

Great accommodation set in lovely lowland countryside. Handy for various tourist spots, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Stirling and Falkirk. Linlithgow Town centre and Train station 6 miniutes away.Jim the host has provided a great holiday home. There are 3 chalets in a quiet rural area. We are happy to recommend. Car essential.

We arrived a bit early & it wasnt any problem for Jim, who met us, in the rain. Inside after a little tour & info on the workings of the gas stove, lights,door keys etc, we unloaded & just relaxed. Looking out at the sheeo pastures & the 360 views itvwas amazing.! The drive up the hill was a bit scary, but after a few trios up/ down we adjusted. House was lovely. Everything clean & neat. Im sad we didn't have time to put the living room back together, as we needed to be to the airport so early. Left them a bottle of wine to say thank you & forgot to leave a note of thanks. So " Thamk you"!!!

This was a wonderful cottage and a beautiful setting. It was extremely clean and well equipped. The owner was delightful and very helpful.It should be noted that there is no dryer or hot tub. But there was a rack to dry clothes on and they dried quickly. Also, you need to take your own bath soap. It was very up-to-date and the view from your window was gorgeous. Lambs scampering about and a beautiful view of the valley. We were extremely happy with our location.

We found a beautiful Cottage in the near of Linlithgow. For the start all necessary things were available in the Cottage. In the evening Jim, the owner, visit shortly and had a talk with us. The area around is so beautiful. Sheaps, top view on the Ochils.

The accommodation is clean, quiet and has all you need. Everything worked, the hosts were great. They checked we were OK and then left us to ourselves.
It's a great area to explore as well.
We can definitely recommend a stay here.

5 of us stayed here Monday to Thursday, we were all very impressed with the cottage, and the views around it were spectacular. There was everything you could need for a stay here.
The fishing lake, just a few yards from the cottage was beautiful, even if you don't fish, was lovely to walk around. The town of Linlithgow was just a couple of miles away, with an historical palace to visit, good rail links to Edinburgh and Glasgow and good restaurants and shops.
I would highly recommend these cottages, they are a great find. Enjoy!!

Amazing cottage. Communication with hosts where excellent. Even round up the sheep herd was inclusive :-). We had a wonderful time in the cottage and just loved the view of the fields surrounding. We found everything we needed in the cottage as well. Thanks again for a really nice vacation.

The cottage was central for everywhere we wanted to go and was near to the train station for easy access into Edinburgh.
Having 3 double bedrooms and 3 bathrooms is very unusual and it made life so much easier for everyone.

Spotlessly clean, well equipped and great location. Ideal base for visiting Edinburgh and Glasgow. Linlithgow Palace is definitely worth visiting. Perfect holiday home - we didn’t want to leave.

A week that had almost all we needed. 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms make it ideal for a larger family. Trout fishing within 50 feet of the cottage.
Only weakness was the beds are low (ikea type) and are well passed their comfort guarantee.

This cottage was a great surprise and absolutely beautiful. If you’re ready to disconnect from social media and take a break from our fast paced lives, this cottage is the answer. I rated communications with property manager less than 5 stars as we had difficulty reaching Jim and no information was provided ahead of time as to how to get there and the check in process. Since we were traveling via London from the US, this was unsettling. However once we made contact with him, they were extremely responsive to our needs and questions. A fantastic location and we would definitely return.

We loved Carriber Cottage - spotlessly clean, spacious. well equipped, modern, comfortable and convenient. You can park right outside, walk to the fishing lake or drive to Linlithgow station to take the train quickly into Edinburgh. Three large bedrooms and three full bathrooms - and the Feb a hot tub you can use. If you're driving up to Scotland it's ideal as a beautiful base to stay and explore from. Jim greeeted us on arrival and was friendly and welcoming. What a great find.

Clean, comfy and lots of living space. Super kitchen and bathroom facilities and proximity to places of interest. The biggest attraction was the view from all aspects...so peaceful...and the walk around the fishing lake-fabulous!
Our dog loved it too and she's fussy!

Lovely !ocation, very c!ean, but property far too hot and took two days to cool down. Bed linen poor quality, rough and scratchy. One single mattress and bed frame very poor. 4 of our party left early, unable to sleep. Dining chairs need pads on feet to avoid loud scraping on tiled floor. Tourist information leaflets were mainly used, grubby and out of date. Door handles needed adjustment, difficult for both children and adults. Instruction manual for appliances would have been helpful. Unable to address issues with owners as they were On holiday.

Lovey cottage with all round views of the countryside.
Bedrooms and bathrooms large with plenty of storage. Kitchen / diner/ lounge all open plan - plenty of space.
Lots of hot water and a handy dishwasher too.
The only thing I would change is the mattress on the upstairs double bed… was a bit soft for our liking.
Hosts introduced himself on arrival but we didn’t see them as everything we needed was catered for.
Good value - very quiet, easy drive to surrounding areas.
Would stay again
