Barn holiday rentals in Scotland

Phyllis’ place was absolutely spotless. The beds were very comfortable. We couldn’t have asked for a better Airbnb. The house was spacious. The parking area was good. Walkable to a supermarket and restaurant and within reasonable distances to a lot of beautiful locations in Northern Ireland. We had a great stay and I would definitely stay here again. Phyllis also provided some essentials for our stay which was much appreciated.

Could not fault The Hemmel at all. Absolutely beautiful. The accommodation, surroundings and view was exceptional. Ezra our labradoodle loved the enclosed garden. From the greeting off Kate, the beautiful homemade cake and flowers left for us, watching the red squirrel and the beautiful Northumbrian countryside and beaches, there was nothing we did not like about our stay. If we decide to come back to this neck of the woods, this would be our first pick. Five stars and beyond.

Super break staying in Tracy & Rolys cottage. It really is a warm and comfortable place set in beautiful surroundings. Unfortunately the weather was challenging so we ended up spending more time indoors than we would have liked but that really didn’t matter as the cottage was a real home from home stocked with books and games which we enjoyed. We will definitely return to explore the surrounding countryside in hopefully better weather. We’ve stayed in many cottages and this is right up near the top!

Our stay at Wemyss Castle Estate was wonderful! The accommodations were lovely and immaculate. Jamie was welcoming, friendly, and great at communicating. We especially enjoyed touring the Wemyss Caves and the beautiful gardens on the estate. Paulina checked in on us to make sure we had everything we needed and took care of our special requests (due to allergies). There was even a very nice welcome basket of "goodies" on our arrival. I would recommend this apartment to anyone who wanted to explore the beauty of Fife and would love to be able to return!

This is a lovely, cosy and beautifully equipped place to stay within easy reach of Glasgow and many surrounding places of interest. The train station, which is only about a 10minute drive, has free parking and trains run regularly into Glasgow central. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here and meeting Pauline.

The cottage was the perfect place for our weekend away! The rooms were comfortable, the kitchen was very well equipped, and the garden was very spacious! We loved watching the neighbouring sheep in the sun room, and the hot tub was the perfect place to watch the pheasants and squirrels which visited the garden. The cottage was about an hours drive to the lakes, and the host was super friendly and recommended some lovely local walks and things to do in the village! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to come back!

Our stay at The Hayloft was the perfect place to end our travels to Scotland. I only wish we could have spent more time there. Upon arrival, there was homemade Shortbread that was second to none! Unfortnately, no other shortbread will ever taste that good after being spoiled by Dorothy's family recipe. The space was beautifully decorated with her original artwork and has two bedrooms, a workable kitchen, living room with a multitude of books and dvds. The bathroom was lined with mystical wall panels of iridescent stars. My personal favorite was the deep and long bathtub for long hour soaks after a tiring but fun filled day. The backyard is beautiful and serene. Great place to read or for birdwatching. Plenty of local hiking or biking activities with many not needing a car to get there. The hospitality Dorothy gave us was top notch as she even loaned us a cooler along with ice packs for our Puffin excursion. The Hayloft is worthy of being the only destination for holiday!

We adored the Tractorshed! It was such a beautiful little cottage with everything you need. The proximity to all the animals and daily visits from the cat Reggie were a huge bonus. It’s was so peaceful and beautiful there, the perfect place to reset and just be. We would definitely come back!

The barn was beautiful and full of little touches. Pam was an excellent host and was very friendly. She even baked us shortbread whilst we were there! We loved the peace and quiet yet we could get to Alnwick within 10 minutes. A fantastic break. Pam has put together a folder with recommendations for food and drink and this was especially useful. Would love to stay again.

A fantastic stay in peaceful surroundings. A lovely, cozy home with super comfy sofas in the lounge to crash onto after a day of walking. Kitchen has everything you’d need, and we opted to stay in and cook as a result. Great location too, with a fantastic selection of restaurants just a short drive away.

It truly was a lovely place to stay. Lots of super touches from the brilliant welcome pack, dog treats/covers to the toiletries. Bed was super comfy and kitchen well stocked with everything you need. Surroundings were beautiful and great dog walks from the Barn. We loved it so much we have booked again. Thanks so much Susan for a wonderful stay.

We have just returned from a fabulous week at Denfield. The house is beautiful, spotlessly clean, with a beautiful outside sitting area and view across the fields to the sea. Shirley and John, the hosts, were great. Communication was excellent and they checked in with us during our stay to ensure that everything was ok. They also provided a tasty starter pack for us including the most delicious local strawberries. Our group included a small dog and my Mum who has mobility issues. However, the house was well set up for her, with a large downstairs bedroom and en suite/jack & jill bathroom. The dog was also made welcome, with treats and a Mud Daddy portable shower unit for those wash downs after the beach walks! I would not hesitate to recommend this house and would visit again. Thank you Shirley and John for such a great stay!

Everything absolutely excellent in the barn, area, surroundings, hot tub and hosts. Only minor thing was the road leading up to the barn, needed to have a smoother ride to it, not suitable for small cars due to the terrain. We visited many places, beautiful, peaceful and serene. All the pubs we visited were very welcoming.

We had a wonderful stay here for two nights while we attended a wedding. The host was very friendly and super responsive, they even took the time to recommend a cab company for our travels. The place its self is beautiful! We wish we could have stayed longer. It was immaculate, comfy and felt so homely. It was a great place for our stay as it had all the amenities we needed from a hair dryer to dressing table and an iron and board. I couldn’t recommend this place enough. We hope to stay again on our future trips to see family!

Quite rural but only 8 mins off the main road - makes you feel you’re in a very special quiet place! Great little cottage, cozy and comfy and clean, and nicely decorated. Hot tub with great view is a fab addition. Would recommend.

This is a beautifully presented little cottage in an ideal position to visit the Lakes. Everything you’ll need is here and we really appreciated all the toiletries and welcome pack. There are lovely walks around and about the village too and of course the fabulous Dog and Gun pub within walking distance for a superb evening meal. Thanks to Matt for great communication leading up to our stay and a wonderful few days!

We had another highly enjoyable weekend at Swallows Nest, our 2nd short stay at this very peaceful and comfortable property. A home from home, in very beautiful and special surroundings. Already arranging our 3rd visit … :) Highly recommend for a family or couple. Thank you both!

What a lovely place to rest and recharge for a few days. Everything you need and more. Highly recommended

Wonderful Dairy Farm cottage with lovely host. The store & cafe was wonderful as well. We took the recommendations and drove out to the west coast beach and saw so many wonderful things along the drive! Highly recommend any of Carolyn’s cottages for your stay. We drove into Cromarty and along that coast area and found some great treasures to take back to the USA.

**A Perfect Stay – Highly Recommend!** From the moment we arrived, this Airbnb felt like a home away from home. Kathryn ensured everything was ready for a seamless check-in and she was always quick to respond to any questions. The house itself was spotless, beautifully decorated, and stocked with thoughtful touches that made our stay extra comfortable. The location was ideal—quiet enough to relax, yet close to great local attractions. The bed was cozy, the kitchen was well-equipped for cooking, and the balcony was a lovely spot to unwind. I’d absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a wonderful Airbnb experience! And the best part of this place is beautiful sunset which you can see from balcony and you will fall in love. Thanks Kathryn for your hospitality and hope we will meet again soon.

This was our second trip to The Barn on Skye. We dreamt about coming back as soon as we left last year. We actually planned our entire stay around the cottage availability. The views and location are spectacular- out of a dream. And you’re located right along Brothers Point trail so it’s amazingly convenient. The cottage is well equipped and very comfortable. We stayed with our two children ages 2 and 8 and they loved it as well. We look forward to hopefully staying again next year and making it a tradition for our annual trips to Scotland!! Thank you again for a spectacular stay and memories!!

We enjoyed our stay - the cottage is clean and cosy - it feels remote and there is fantastic dog walking straight from the front door. We enjoyed exploring the nearby distillery, the Fife coast and also St Andrews. Elspeth and Duncan were very helpful and friendly - we would come again. Thank you.

This is such a beautiful property and the surroundings are so peaceful! The cottage was well furnished and provided a home away from home while we travelled and worked throughout the UK. Cass was a great host and very accommodating.

Great farm stay - In between Glasgow n Edinburgh n Falkirk n Stirling making touring easy
