“The cottage immediately conveys a sense of comfortable habitation, looking out over the sea from its quiet Cockenzie perch. Its proximity to the shore is palpable, and the convenience to Edinburgh, via a swift train from Prestonpans, makes it a remarkably well-placed retreat. One finds a well-appointed interior that truly feels like a home away from home, even down to practicalities like a washing machine.”
James DavidEditor-in-Chief at Uklothian
