Scottish escape

Clean, cosy, warm cottage with everything needed for a self-catering holiday. Owner lives next door. Available if required. Located in a busy road, with no restaurants nearby, although there is a fish and chip shop a few minutes walk away. However, close to Park & Ride for trips into Edinburgh, about 45 minutes journey time.

Cosy, fully equipped, very nice sun room and back yard.

We had a great time, the cottage is very clean and fully equipped. It was warm and sunny so we had the sun/bedroom nicely lit up. Crossgates has a great fish and chips place a short walk down the street. and it is quite varied with fish, pizza, calzones, and other foods. A corner 'mini mart' very near that. The bus stops for both directions are very close, and it was fairly easy to get to Edinburgh. The Host was very friendly and helpful. We also highly recommend this place.

Beau gite très bien placé

Le gîte de Crossgates est idéalement situé : en effet, à quelques centaines de mètres se trouve un Park and ride. Vous pouvez y déposer votre véhicule gratuitement, et vous rendre en bus, pour un prix modique, a Edimbourg, Glasgow , St andrew's , etc.... Quant au gîte il est très confortable, bien agencé, et très agréable (la chambre est un régal pour prendre son petit déjeuner face au jardin) Nous y avons passé un super séjour. Crossgates est un lieu stratégique pour visiter la région, particulierement Edimbourg (passez y plusieurs journées, il y a tant à voir ) Nous recommandons vivement ce gite .

For us it was a great place to get acquainted with Scotland.

The cottage is good, we could not hear the traffic in the bedroom. Clean sanitair, well equipped kitchen. Everything worked. One of the advantages is the bus stop near by in the street, and the Halbeath Park and Ride at a 10 minutes walk from the doorstep. We went to Edinburg and Glasgow by bus. On a mega card. We found the main information (time tables) at the cottage. The WIFI was also very helpful. For Glasgow we paid a little extra for it was out the Fife zone +. For us it was a nice way to get into the spirit of Scotland. The big plus for me was that I didn't have to drive (left) so it made it very relaxing! N.B.

An immaculate and well equipped home away from home

We had a very comfortable stay at this property, which we booked as a base from which to visit family close by. The interior was immaculate and felt very spacious - it is a bit like the Tardis - looks small from the outside but is much bigger inside!! The kitchen was very well equipped, with a large freezer and a range of bits and pieces that are usually conspicuous by their absence in self catering properties eg sharp knives (!!!), a range of chopping boards, bin bags etc. A lot of thought has obviously gone into making guests comfortable. The garden outside is a wonderful bonus - a sun trap, with patio doors leading from the bedroom outside. The weather was lovely during our stay so we really appreciated the outside space. As we have family in the area, we would very happily stay.
