Anna L ★★★★★

Thank you for such a lovely stay! The log cabin was so comfortable, and had everything we needed. We had breakfast in the main house in the morning and was absolutely delicious. 2 gorgeous mini-schnauzer’s that were happily running around which we loved.

A big Thank-you to Libby, Archie and their beautiful family for making our stay in May 2025 most enjoyable ! Our accommodation in the Guest House was gorgeous, spacious and very comfortable. We had a great view from our front window overlooking the sublime manicured gardens. We had a daily breakfast, our laundry was done and our room was kept clean. Definitely will be back and highly recommend to all those looking for a wonderful place to stay in Kilsyth, Scotland ! Kylie and Mark Egan x

Fabulous one night stay on our JOG walk. Libby is a great host. Looked after our laundry, offered to pick us up and drop us back to town. Our cabin was very comfortable and quiet. Excellent breakfast too. Highly recommend.

Jeremy Aytoun ★★★★★

Stayed in this place for one night. Was difficult finding it, there is a horrible hill getting to the b&b for cyclist and walkers! However, the bed and the stay was worth it. Bed was comfy and fell asleep within minutes and slept throughout the night. Breakfast was an amazing Scottish breakfast and cereal.
