Availability and Booking

Checking availability…

… wonderfully equipped kitchen, huge stack of games for a rainy day. I am incredibly fussy about beds and pillows and Sue has got it right as they were perfect and so comfortable. We certainly look forward to returning in the future. A true home from home.

Our week’s stay at Millsyde Cottage was the best we have ever had, and we have stayed in dozens of cottages throughout Scotland over the last fifteen years or so. Large, airy, comfortable, clean, exceedingly well-equipped and appointed, we couldn’t have wished for better. Sue was a wonderful host, for whom nothing was too much trouble to make our stay memorable. The welcome gifts were to die for! We will be booking again shortly for two separate weeks for next year…..

You have to see Millsyde to believe it. The online photographs show you a high standard, but what they don’t capture is how beautiful each of the rooms are……the attention to detail …… and the thought put in by the owner, so your every whim is satisfied.

Millsyde still has the wow factor, it is beautifully decorated and so well equipped. It really does have everything you could need and the most comfortable beds. We made the most of all the extras including the eggs that had been left (including chocolate eggs) and the cards and board games. Having level access and all accommodation on one level meant Millsyde has been perfect for my partner in his wheelchair. There was plenty of room to get round the house, in the bedrooms and en-suite which makes life so nice and easy.

I cannot praise Millsyde highly enough. We entertained our friends there, and the quality of the accommodation and the thought and care that went in to making this a real ‘home from home’ was quite outstanding. I am only concerned that when word gets out and everyone books and rebooks – we may struggle for regular slots! A big thank you to Sue, who couldn’t have been more helpful.

We can’t wait to return and have recommended it to friends, family and work colleagues. Go!  You won’t be disappointed!!
