We had an amazing time, the house was home from home. Everything there you needed. We court the train into Edinburgh and also Glasgow. There is the kelpies near by and The wheel, so plenty to do. The hot tube was amazing on an evening to relax. The best thing for me was the river that runs by the house at the back, the sound was So relaxing. William seemed really nice that showed us around. All in all the best place I have stayed, so relaxing, what an amazing place to spend a holiday
