Cottage holiday rentals in Kilmarnock

A 40 year celebration of being married. It was the perfect place for us to relax and enjoy our time together. Many highlights the hot tub view the peacock and peahen dance every night... The night flyover from the herons. Martyn was a perfect host very helpful. Perfect memories thank you.

We had such a lovely stay! It was well located for getting out for local walks and was wonderful to come back to at the end of the day (the hot tub and sauna were wonderful after a day hiking!). The place had everything we needed and Jane and Steve were really helpful - thank you!

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.

Fantastic 3 day stay for my mother-in-law's 70th birthday. The cottage was perfect and we chose it specially so we could get to Edinburgb and Glasgow during our stay. Would definitely book again. Great value for money.

Very well designed cottage making the best possible use of quite a small space - with both a shower room and bathroom , utility room as well as kitchen/living space and the patio with hot tub. Although near to the High Street with a range of takeaways and a superb butcher (Hunters) the cottage is in a very quiet street. The nearby Curate Wynd free car park was very handy and we could unload from there. Although Dawn and Darren were away Dawn was on hand to answer any queries. We had a great three day break - spending the days at the RSPB Nature Reserve in stunning weather. We ate out one night at the Balgedie Toll Tavern - highly recommended for great food and very good service.

Beautiful little cottage, garden and surroundings. After a stressful and long few months establishing a relocated business it was lovely to let go and do nothing in peace! The repurposed and upcycled features are gorgeous and the garden was perfect for our inquisitive and active dog to entertain himself without worry of him getting out. Sitting on the veranda with wine and the fire-pit going whilst watching the rain was just perfect (for me, a weird inclement weather lover!).

Drovers Cottage is absolutely 100% our favourite place we've stayed! Unanimously voted by 2 adults, 2 teenagers and 2 very happy hounds! Kylie is a wonderful host, she went above and beyond to make our arrival at the cottage to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary really special. The cottage is comfortable, cosy and the décor is fabulous and there are little eco touches everywhere - the setting is incredibly pretty - even when the mists came in and the hills disappeared, and of course, there's the hot tub!!! We'd highly recommend this Scottish hideaway.

We had an absolutely lovely time at Ali's place. Spacious, clean and very comfortable. Hot tub and garnden really make the place with stunning views. Easy access to Edinburgh by train and car and also the Fife coastal path. We loved it! would be very happy to return again one day. Ali was the perfect host.

Had a great stay here, everything was here that I needed, my dogs were also very well catered for. I had to change the plans a couple of times and Anne was very responsive and very helpful. Would 100% recommend this little apartment, it was small but perfectly formed with a quaint little courtyard. Love it.

This was our second stay at the cottage and had a lovely time. Cozy, with everything you could possibly need and having the log fire is a bonus. The location is perfect for us as it is close to family but staying on a working farm is also fun to see everything going on. Would definitely stay again.

Beautiful location and lovely views from the property

Super stay. Enjoyed fantastic views & good walks despite variable weather. House was super: bright, clean & well maintained. Thank you.

We enjoyed a few days in the lovely cottage incl. evenings in front of the fireplace. Our three kids also liked it at a lot and had fun playing in the front yard or at the beaches nearby. Everything is as nice and clean as described. Jane and her team were super responsive and very helpful - not only but also with great recommendations for sights to visit or beautiful restaurants. A fantastic stay, we would like to come again.

Most enjoyable few days in this warm, cosy cottage. Lovely walks for the dogs and so many little birds! Linda very friendly and able to make recommendations for places to eat in area beyond Leadhills. Many thanks.

Lovely and tranquil, would love to return in the summer.clean and fresh.another great Airbnb experience.easy to find and all essentials there too like teabags/coffee .my dogs first night away and she loved it too..thanks Vicki

Very peaceful location in the country but close enough to Saline and Dunfermline for anything you might need.

Loved my stay at this beautiful cottage. Such a spacious, homely cottage with an amazing big enclosed garden for the dog. I’ll definitely be back!

Duncan was such a kind and friendly host, really active in communicating with us, and gave us loads of insight and suggestions for the area and our stay. It was lovely chatting with him. The views around are lovely and the property was well stocked, clean, and easy to find. We would definitely come back agaih!

This was the most incredibly beautiful property in a stunning location. Pier Cottage is so private and peaceful with views over Loch Striven where you can sit and relax whilst watching the array of wildlife around you or take the kayak out on the loch. The cottage was extremely comfortable and well appointment with everything you would need for you stay. If you are looking for somewhere to unplug from the world and completely relax - this is the ideal place.

The cottage is in a beautiful location, with walking from the door and useful nearby amenities in Strachur. The space is well thought out and the garden and seating lovely to enjoy a cup of tea in the sunshine. The bed was lovely and comfy and the shower was great too! Well equipped kitchen for self catering, we also tried The Creggans Inn and had a lovely meal there especially the local seafood. Highlights for us were walking the Cowal way from the door toward Curran Lochain which makes a beautiful spot for a picnic and visiting Inverary and castle.

We loved Fairy Cottage's location, very peaceful, but there is lots to do in the surrounding area and it's very close to Lochside where we were attending a wedding reception. Hugh was so helpful and friendly - nothing too much trouble. He greeted us when we arrived and showed us around. The cottage is beautifully decorated and has everything you could possibly need for a stay in this area. We only wished that we could have stayed longer - we were there for just 1 night. Angela had left us some little cakes which were much appreciated by us with a cup of tea after our 5 hour jorney from Lancashire after delays on the M6. Would definitely recommend Fairy Cottage if you're ever in New Cumnock area. Many thanks Hugh and Angela! Peter and Diane

Nothing short of amazing! A nature lover’s paradise (even with the Scottish weather). Got dry weather for an hour one morning haha so had a lovely breakfast in the garden. Met two tiny (literally newborn) lambs in the field next to us! All wobbly on their feet. So cute!! Friendly hosts, very clean and well decorated.

The cottage was pristine The beds and bed linen was so comfy in all rooms Very private and lovely layout to the house very spacious

We absolutely loved our stay here, it’s so secluded and peaceful and the perfect country escape! The cottage itself was so beautiful and the interior design was so impressive. The cottage was immaculate and it also felt so homely. Heather was an amazing host and so communicative. One of the best stays we’ve had and we will definitely be back - thank you!
