The shower room has a larger double shower base and again has been well finished with a touch of modern style. The living room will prove to be a favourite place for the whole family with the wood burning stove and smart TV - just in case the weather isn’t the nicest! The modern kitchen is well equipped and fitted with appliances including a dishwasher and coffee machine - just to make things that little bit easier. Outside the garden provides a lovely peaceful place for the kids to play and enjoying some sunshine. A BBQ, firepit and garden furniture may make you want to change your plans and simply stay and enjoy the cottage.

A really lovely, well-equipped cottage - much better and more spacious than it looks in the pictures. The countryside location is quiet and peaceful, yet Edinburgh can be reached in 25 minutes by car. The garden is secure, which was great for my dog, and he loved the woodland walks nearby. We felt very much at home here, and would happily return.

A quiet courage in a peaceful setting, with good access to country walks, especially using the footpath along the old railway from Haddington to Longniddry. Location gives easy access to coastal and inland attractions within East Lothian, and further afield to Edinburgh or south to Berwick.

We enjoyed our stay at seton hill cottage.Great location with excellent walks from the cottage. Well equipped with everything you need. Station to Edinburgh or North Berwick 5 minute drive away. Longniddry station car park gets busy. Luckily we have an electric car and only spaces were for electric charging which is very reasonably priced.
