Willow Cottage - sleeping 6 guests in 3 bedrooms | Hütte in Cockburnspath

A stylish cottage set within the verdant grounds of the Dunglass Estate.
The ideal spot for friends and family to soak up the charms of East Lothian
Set within the celebrated 5,000-acre Dunglass Estate, Willow is one of a trio of cottages that make up the stylishly restored former stables. Fronted by a striking arched entrance, the Courtyard Cottages form the remaining three sides of a square around the tranquil courtyard that has housed the Usher family’s horses, carriages and motorcars over the generations.
When Robert Burns visited Dunglass in 1787, he famously described the estate’s Gothic church, rugged coastline, sylvan woodlands and landscaped gardens as: “the most romantic sweet place I ever saw.” Now in the capable hands of the fourth generation of Ushers, the estate comprises a thriving sustainable farm as well as beautiful parkland and woodland that stretch to the sea, making it a picturesque, convenient and romantic base from which to explore East Lothian’s prized beaches, golf courses, and historic towns. Located under an hour’s drive from Edinburgh, Willow cottage even puts the great city within easy reach.
Willow cottage boasts sweeping views across the Dunglass Estate to one side through attractive arched windows and is accessed by way of the shared courtyard. The welcoming country kitchen features crisp white units, an American-style fridge freezer and a rustic timber dining table while the sitting room is flooded with sunshine thanks to triple-aspect windows and completed by a wood-burning stove and chic sofas, including a made-for-lounging chaise sofa. Soft heritage colours and a touch of tartan warm the three bedrooms, which share access to a contemporary bathroom featuring a large walk-in shower with a rainforest head.
For larger parties able to holiday together, Willow cottage can be let with two further three-bedroom cottages in the courtyard, Laurel and Birch, while Seaview House (four bedroom) and the captivating Treehouse (one bedroom) sit just a few hundred yards away.
