Beautiful and restful
300 year old stone farmhouse in the countryside. Beautiful location in rolling hills with horses crazing. The house is very comfortable with everything we needed, large rooms and a lovely sunroom to enjoy the view with the morning sun.

Fantastic
All good. Just great to be set away from the noise of city living. Bowhouse Farm is very welcoming and comfortable. It had everything we needed for a 4 night break away. We would gladly book again to stay here, without a thought of doubt. Thank you for having us

Fantastic for a family get together
Bowhouse is a beautiful old farmhouse set in a stunning location, it has a lovely energy about it, the house itself is a gem, with lots of little extras, I am an avid reader and love old books so l was very pleased with the collection of books on hand, also a nice selection of games for the kids. The garden is very well maintained and the dogs loved it. All in all, we had a very nice break and would love to visit again sometime when the weather is warmer and we could enjoy the garden and surrounding area at its best.

October hols @ the Bowhouse
Lovely spacious cottage with a traditional feel, in a wonderful rural location but close to main routes. The cottage is surrounded by ponies which come to the fence to greet you as you walk along the track. Fantastic log burning fire in the living room makes for a cosy evening. Great place at a great price. ❤️

Perfect home base for family holiday
What a delightful house in a beautiful, country location. Our family of 4 (2 adults, 2 teens) stayed for 10 days and didn’t want to leave. We found Bowhouse the perfect spot whether we wanted to relax in the garden, wander the surrounding countryside, or head out and explore Edinburgh, Glasgow, Stirling and environs. Beds were particularly comfortable; kitchen had all we needed. Would love to return one day! Will long remember the wonderful garden, horses nickering just over the fence, the late light of summer and the peace and quiet in a hectic world.

Family Break
Had a super family break in this wonderful cottage for 3 days. The cottage has everything you could possibly need,and more. The owner has the most charming property with a lovely mix of old and new styles, and has many lovely personal effects and decoration throughout. Wonderful views and garden, and so tranquil and relaxing with a cosy open fire in the lounge, and relaxing sunroom. Great position, as felt lovely and private, but only a short drive to many various activities and places of interest. Will be delighted to stay here again as soon as possible.

Wonderful Property
I wish we had been able to spend more time at the property, but we were in Scotland due to an event, that we spent most of the 5 days there.... I would not hesitate to rebook this property, as everything that you would need in a home, when on holiday, is present there. There is buckets loads of room so you never feel "squashed in" like a lot of the newer properties that are up for renting... As soon as we arrived we were met with complimentary food and milk, which is a very nice touch, and very welcomed. It was very quiet at night, so you will never be disturbed by anything other than the occasional owl. The gardens around the house, are welcoming with more than enough room to get the barbeque out whilst the children entertain themselves, so if you do need somewhere quiet, very homely, enough space for more than 6 people, and not a bad price, pick here you won't be disappointed.... Cheers

Bowhouse experience
First impressions was 'wow' what a place, the views and the garden was great, especially for the dog, however, we had to be with her all the time, maybe some mesh or netting to cover the fence would be more secure bearing mind horses in the fields and the yard. More about the dog policy, it was not stated before we arrived about the restrictions for the dog within the property, it says Dog friendly, yet on the back of the kitchen door it says dogs are not allowed beyond the kitchen! I dont class this as dog friendly, I do not find it acceptable not to allow the dog at least into the living room, we therefore had to stay in the kitchen most of the time, as our dog is part of our family. You don't restrict children, whom can be more destructive and dirtier than a dog. Responsible dog owners keep an eye on their pet and do not allow them on other peoples furniture or upstairs when on holiday. Our dog never goes upstairs even at home. I understand that they can stratch furniture, we brought our own cover and dog bed. We were prepared for hoovering up any dog hair, just disappointed that a part of the family is relegated to the kitchen and she was upset too as could not understand why she was not allowed to join us. Provisions provided on arrival was exceptional, however, we did bring some of our own, so a mention that basic provisions are provided in the listing would have been helpful. The kitchen was very well stocked, the heating and electricity being provided was great. However, the hot tap in the kitchen was just a trickle, the landing light didn't work, we didn't call anyone because of our short stay. Double bed was very comfortable, we slept well, the bedding and towels were of good quality., we closed off all the other rooms. The wifi was good for our iphones but could not get my laptop to work on a mobile 4G network, it could not find any network in the area, yet at home, it is fine on a normal router. Train service from Kirkcaldy to Edinburgh was exceptional, free parking and straight to centre of the city! All in all, an enjoyable stay, just let down by the so called 'dog friendly' image, which is what drew us to stay at the property in the first place, dog friendly is our priority in choosing a property.

Lovely secluded house
We had a lovely weekend in this property it had everything you could need also quiet and secluded. The house was nice and warm for our arrival which was lovely as it is winter time! Lots of information for travellers on things to see and do if so desired. Would definitely return to Bowhouse.

Exceptional property and location
My family and I had a wonderful stay in Lochgelly. Beautiful older home full of charm which is well stocked. The home is much larger than we expected with plenty of room for the six of us to stretch out. Also, the location is absolutely stunning with the horses nearby and the rolling countryside. We enjoyed it so much we added an additional night. Highly recommended and look forward to our next stay. Philip

Fabulous location, tired property.
We had a lovely family holiday in a beautiful setting. The house is big and spacious but poorly maintained. The floors are very uneven. The upstairs shower didn’t drain away properly and downstairs shower was a spray. The sitting room furniture is uncomfortable, very old and very low making it difficult to rise from. We didn’t let any of this detract from having a great holiday but it would stop us renting again unless the property was upgraded.

altes Bauernhaus, liebevoll in Schuss gehalten
Das Haus und die Anlage werden regelmäßg gewartet und betreut. jederzeit ein gemähter Rasen und gepflegte Gartenanlage. Es ist ein altes Bauernhaus, das vom Prinzip alle Annehmlichkeiten bietet. Leider lässt die Reinigungskraft Schwächen erkennen. Wer die Nähe von Pferden und Land- Viehwirtschaft mag ist hier gut aufgehoben. Ruhe und Natur sind gegeben. Die Nachbarn sind nett und man hat seine Ruhe. Ausflüge in alle Richtungen sind schnell gemacht und einfach zu erreichen

Tolles gemütliches cottage
Wunderschönes Haus, direkt an einem Reiterhof gelegen mit tollen Blick über die Wiesen und Felder. Das Haus selbst ist ein altes Farmhaus, typisch britisch und liebevoll zurecht gemacht - aber eben schon ein wenig älter, was bei den Sanitäranlagen und den Fenstern schon auffällt (letzteres war für uns nicht so wichtig, denn wir hatten Sommer☀️). Küche inklusive Begrüßungspaket war super, Einkaufen nur 8 min entfernt - und wenn man der Beschreibung von Malcolm folgt, dann findet man das Bowhouse auch problemlos.

Beautiful old farmhouse in a beautiful setting!!!
This home is greatly located between Edinburgh and St Andrews. Very easy to get to a lot of places from this location. It is a narrow road getting back to the house as you are driving through the horse stables. Would definitely stay here again if we make the trip back to Scotland!!!
