Property Description
We like to think of the cabin as 'small but perfectly formed' and furnished to the highest standard. The living room features a cast iron stove, extremely comfortable soft furnishings, original artwork and the world's most beguiling rocking chair. There’s a patio door which looks out over our top fields to the woodland beyond. The kitchen area is fully fitted with fridge, washing machine, dishwasher and all of the usual accessories such as kettle, microwave and toaster and there’s a round dining table for the family to enjoy eating together. Unlike many other 'log cabin' self-catering holiday homes, ours is not one of a number where you can be victim to noisy neighbours; it sits on its own over 150 meters from the farm yard. Visitors have already told us that what they've enjoyed most is the peace and tranquility that it offers after a busy day doing holiday things. Our visitors have told us that they've enjoyed the very comfortable beds: a king-sized double bed in one room and twin beds in the other. All bed linen and towels are provided and heating and hot water is included. Sit out on the decking area and relax but be careful before you venture out early in the morning because we often have deer, brown hares and other wildlife coming down to graze and they're easily frightened - there's a pair of binoculars you can use if you enjoy wildlife watching. You'll need a car to move to and fro at Belstane Log Cabin but just three miles away there's a train station where the trains to Edinburgh and Glasgow run approximately every hour and from Balerno there's a bus service into Edinburgh every fifteen minutes or so. Parking is easy to find for both services. West Lothian is stacked with things to do from country walks, to golf, fishing and for the kids there’s plenty to do: swimming pools, the ‘Jump Station’ trampoline event, our very own local, and award winning Five Sister Zoo and many more. If you’re a TV watcher of epic dramas then West Lothian, which is liberally peppered with castles is where several of them, like Outlander are filmed. And of course, there’s a host of historic sites within easy reach to visit from Linlithgow Palace to the world famous Roslin Chapel which dates back almost a thousand years to the Knights Templarand where scenes from The Da Vinci Code were filmed.About pets:Pets allowed.No pets on furniture or beds, bring own dog bed..About checkOut:Check out before 10:00 AM.About children:Children allowed: ages 0-17.About checkIn:Check in after 4:30 PM.About smoking:Smoking is not permitted.About minBookingAge:Minimum age to rent: 25.About events:No events allowed.

Excellent Location, Welcoming and Well-Kept The cabin was perfect for my husband and I, our daughter, and our beagle. David and Fiona were very welcoming and accommodating. The cabin is well-kept and has everything you could need, but especially privacy. It's decorated with lovely art and has that personalized vibe that makes you feel safe. The location is perfect. We were able to go see a variety of things that were within a 90 minute drive and Edinburgh is super close. If you want country living with easy access to the city and many national treasures, it's the perfect place.

Delightful Cabin Fiona's cabin is the best way to enjoy your holiday in Edinburgh, without staying in the city. The space is delightful, cozy and perfect for a couple or a full family. Fiona helped us find the Lothian 44 bus--a relaxing no-drive-no-parking 30 minute cruise into the heart of Edinburgh. We sat on the deck and watched the lambs frolic all evening after sight-seeing. We are so grateful to Fiona and her family for sharing this space with us!

A fabulous stay! From check-in to check-out, we absolutely loved our short stay at this property. Communication with our hosts was excellent and we had everything we needed in the cabin. The warm welcome was also very much appreciated after the long drive! Thank you for everything.

Wonderful, quiet cabin in the country Dave and Fi have a beautiful, well-designed, and well-kept little cabin just outside of Edinburgh. With room to breathe the Scottish fresh air, green fields all around you, and sheep grazing in the pasture, this cabin is an ideal location for rest and relaxation, especially for couples or families who like the great outdoors. Dave and Fi were extremely hospitable and had some breakfast supplies and flowers on the dining table for us when we arrived. Just wish we could have stayed longer!

Absolutely amazing Most amazing and welcoming hosts we’ve ever stayed with. The property is amazing and for us it was perfectly located. Very quiet and the views are breath taking. If I’m ever blessed enough to visit scotland again. I will be booking at this property. Absolutely made our visit that much better. if you want a secluded getaway that’s quiet yet close enough to stores and restaurants stay here. Do not look any further

Great warm and cozy cabin Lovely stay for 6 nights in this delightful cabin surrounded by fields. Super comfy bed and everything we needed. It was convenient for Livingston and Edinburgh with a car. Kind touch of flowers, fruit and wine too and the very nice owners gentle and friendly goldies popped by to say hello every now and again. Would stay again for sure.
