Cottage rentals with a hot tub

Beautiful spacious country cottage with Hot Tub
A very beautiful cottage in a private setting. We were met by George on arrival. George was very friendly and informative. We instantly felt right at home. Welcome basket on the kitchen table was a lovely touch. We settled in very quickly and with ease as parking was right outside the cottage. We enjoyed the very clean hot tub in the evenings after our busy days out as well as excellent carryout deliveries. Quality of food was very good. Another highlight was watching the various types of birds feeding, which we could see from the kitchen table and seating area. Especially the Woodpecker which made a regular appearance. We all enjoyed a truly relaxing break in very comfortable and private surroundings. Our check-in and check-out was effortless. Thank you George and Amanda, we will certainly be back.

Scaurbridge Cottage with HotTub, Sauna & Open Fire
Beautiful little cottage. Loads to do without leaving the front door including hot tub, fire and BBQ. Area and garden is stunning! Jane was very helpful and communicative on check in and check out, very friendly! Clean and as described in photos.

The Steading with Pool & Hot Tub
A great getaway with loads to do close by for whatever mood you're in - great towns and cities like Calendar and Stirling less than half an hour away, equally beautiful countryside and multiple waterfalls, lochs and walks to choose from on the doorstep. Our toddler loved the on site swimming pool and the grown ups enjoyed the peaceful views from the hot tub too! Rosie was so friendly and accommodating.

Pippin - Peaceful Scottish Cottages & Hot Tub
An absolute stunning break, our third time here. A quiet, comfortable home and a spectacular garden space for my autistic son to be himself, and my 3 Chihuahuas felt like they were in heaven. The hot tub was well used, even my elderly mum had a go. We had some lovely visits to the surrounding areas but mostly enjoyed the rest and relaxation that we all needed. We can’t wait to come back again.

Dog friendly, Country cottage with Hot tub
We absolutely loved staying at the cottage. This was our third place during our Scotland trip and I am so glad we booked it. It allowed us to explore more nature scenes across Scotland and simply have a safe and comfortable home after exploring all day. If we are ever in Scotland again, we will certainly book again.

Cottage with hot tub near Stirling
We had a really lovely stay at the cottage, and as others have said the games room is fabulous fun, the horses were a huge hit with our kids, and we thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub after a fun day out! Thank you again Helen and family for a super place to relax and have great fun. We really enjoyed our visit.

The Bothy @ InThe Park
Wonderful property and location, perfect for our planned hike from Loch Earn. And the hot tub was perfect for aching legs after! A lot of care and thought clearly gone into the property which made it very cosy and comfortable from the word go. Spacious grounds and garden activities also a bonus. Would highly recommend.

Coylton Cottage with Private Hot Tub
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Not only does the place look fantastic but it is extremely homey and comfortable. The host Lynne was super prepared for our stay and had a high chair set up for our baby along with baby wipes readily available. A lovely welcome pack left in the fridge for us which was greatly appreciated. The property had so much to offer from a large spacious garden with a games garage with a pool table and plenty of garden games, A hot tub and patio furniture (All of which in fabulous condition) to beautiful soft furnishing indoors, with comfortable bedding and fresh towels on each bed. An excellent kitchen with all the things you would need and a local shop at the end of the road that’s easily accessible. Short drive to Ayr beach and all that has to offer also so is perfect to be able to enjoy the sea side but come back to a quiet residential space at the end of the day. 10/10 stay and would highly recommend to anyone looking to visit the area.

LynnAllan Cottage, Lesmahagow, South Lanarkshire.
We had a fabulous stay in a great cottage with a superb host and in beautiful surroundings. We would have no hesitation in staying again. Many thanks

Country Cottage/ Beach 10mins/ Portpatrick 15mins
This was perhaps the best Airbnb we've ever stayed in, and if you like calm, elegant, beautifully decorated, spacious accommodation you will also love it. It has such a relaxing atmosphere, and although the owners are in the adjoining house there is always a sense of peace and privacy. Gorgeous gardens, too, with views out of the windows into the greenery. The free-standing-bath-in-the-bedroom experience is every bit as good as you'd imagine, and the bedlinen, duvet and pillows are high quality and really comfortable. The kitchen has everything you'd need, including storage space for your own food. Not all cottage owners think of that, but Philip and Lesley have. We are very grateful to them for turning this wing of the house into such a wonderful place to stay.

Idyllic cottage in Scottish Country house grounds
Wonderful stay at Fa’side Cottage. The cottage was immaculate, spacious and located in stunning surroundings. The gardens are beautiful. Ingrid was a fantastic host and everything we could’ve needed was provided. We hope to return soon.

The Coach House at Hawkstone Lodge
We both had a fantastic stay at the Coach House. Marjorie and Ronny were both very welcoming. A perfect location for visiting the island, with great views of the Clyde.

The Steading @braighbhaille
A charming cottage, easy to reach but nicely hidden in woodland and with a garden overlooking the loch. Lovely! Faye has done her best to keep it spotless and decorate it nicely. It’s a good place from where to discover the gorgeous lochs, the magnificent Highlands and their charming and romantic castles, of which Inveraray’s is definitely worth a visit! By the way, the small town also offers a classic pub with good food, a more upscale fish restaurant and a small supermarket with very friendly personel. We recomand booking here!

Idyllic Woodland Lodge 1 hour from Edinburgh
Had a wonderful stay at Braco. The cottage is in a lovely location and very spacious. The bedrooms were beautiful and the beds were so comfortable. Would love to stay here again.

Estate cottage in extensive gardens.
Lovely place to stay. Karen made us feel welcome from the start meeting us with her two dogs and making sure that all was ok. She had left us and our dogs some treats which were very much appreciated. The location is a 5-10minute drive from Moffat where there are a lot of dog friendly restaurants and some lovely riverside walks. A lovely stay

Detached Lodge House, Sleeps 4
Peel lodge was just a perfect stay for us. We were near to one of our daughters who was preparing for her imminent wedding. But also easy access to go exploring for our future home. The lodge was clean and tidy on our arrival . We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay here and would highly recommend .

MacKenzie Cottage on Blairquhan Castle Estate
Booked the stay for 4 members of my team. They couldn’t have spoken more highly of the property. Clean, well appointed and perfect for what they needed after a long day.

Sunnyside Cottage, Straiton
We had a lovely, relaxing stay at Sunnyside. The cottage was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed - probably the most well-stocked Air BnB I’ve stayed in. The milk and snacks left for our arrival were an added bonus. Communication with Peter was excellent and there was lots of helpful information in the booklet. The garden leading down to the river was very picturesque and peaceful. We enjoyed really nice walks around the village using one of the many guides in the cottage, and day trips including Kircudbright, the coast and Glasgow. We also enjoyed making use of the record player and Scrabble in the cottage in the evenings after a day exploring.

Fabulous Coastal Paths & Woodland Walks
Lovely peaceful stay in beautiful grounds. Lots of walks on the private grounds including walk to their private beach. Very tranquil and special place. We did a few day trips including Ayr PortPatrick some local areas for nice restaurants. My son loves football and we went to see local town Stranraer play on his birthday and they won. We saw lots of deer and nature everywhere. Children loved the zip wire and there was a games room which we didn’t manage to get to. Kate and Angus couldn’t have been more helpful, lots of great recommendations and wonderful welcome hamper which was delicious and appreciated. Beautiful place and private grounds bigger than expected. We were sad to leave and miss the lovely scenery. Thanks so much for a memorable trip.

Lochside Studio
We loved the Studio, had a great 3 day stay and hope to visit again. The Studio is large, airy, well laid out, and well equipped, and we particularly appreciated the very comfortable beds and furniture. It's set in a large garden with great views. Very quiet and peaceful. The kitchen has a wide range of everything you need when you're self catering, all very clean. For a retired couple like us, it was ideal - thank you Gordon and Maureen.

The Ayrshire Loft at Cloncaird Castle
Luxurious accommodation in stunning location. The open plan cottage with beautiful views and bedroom on mezzanine floor gives a feeling of complete luxury - beautiful furniture-well fitted kitchen and extremely comfortable bed and bedding. Stayed here for 2 nights at the end of road trip for NC500 to visit family - so not much time to explore but will definitely be back and stay for longer next time. Extremely good value

The Paddock at Brickrow Farm, a country cottage
This property was one of the best we have stayed in. The cleanliness was amazing and the quality of bed linens and towels were exceptional Thank you for the treats and fridge goodies came in very useful. Would definitely return here again

The Wee Hoose, Barr, West Coast of Scotland.
We loved staying at Louise's place for a night as we travelled up the west coast. Check in was easy and everything was nice and clean when we arrived. The garden in the back is lovely and the two woodburners give a lovely cottage feel to the place.

Holly Tree Cottage
The cottage is full of character and very cosy. It’s in a great location with fantastic walks on the doorstep. Bea was at the cottage when we arrived. She was super helpful with advice and very friendly. She was the perfect host. Would definitely recommend any one staying here.
