Family-friendly vacation rentals in Musselburgh

I booked this property for my husband and his 3 friends for his 40th birthday. Wallace was extremely communicative at all times, and was very welcoming to the group on arrival. One of the guests arrived early and while Wallace explained the place would not be ready till check in, the guest was able to fish on the loch till later in the day, and thoroughly enjoyed himself! The property was as described, perfectly clean and the location was exactly what I was looking for when I booked. It was easy to find, and the walking guides and maps of the local area were very helpful too. Would book again!

Lovely spot in a really great location. Check in was very easy, the apartment is very clean and has everything you could need. Can highly recommend.

We had a lovely few days here. The place was very clean and we felt right at home. The garden is enclosed and there were even treats for the dog and a crate already here. The place looks so adorable both inside and out it was a gorgeous place to be. We relaxed at the cottage on one day, explored the neighbouring coast, and took the train to Edinburgh. Perfect Easter break.

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.

An absolutely charming place! We stayed one night and were smitten from as soon as we checked in. The loveliest little touches in the interior, from the record player to the board games and books, and oh, what a beautiful garden and outdoor experience to behold! Thank you so much for a wonderful experience

Great host, everything mentioned was included plus cupboards stocked with plenty of basics if needed. Beautiful location wish we had long to explore

Fantastic house, amazing views, lots of space and lovely to be on a farm. Great walk up largo law and lots to do to close by, only a short car journey to get to each location.

Beautiful secluded location. The kitchen was very well equipped and there was everything you needed in the property. It was also very light and spacious. The covered hot tub sold it for us! 10 minute drive to shops and takeaway and 15 mins to Galashiels where there's a lovely cinema. We've already booked for next year!

We had a great time at Libby’s. We used this location as a central landing place after exploring around St Andrew’s, Stirling, Falkirk, Culross. We felt well taken care of and appropriately checked in on. It was a very cosy stay!

The 4 days we had in the cottage were incredible. It had everything we needed, the garden was perfect for enjoying some April sun and it is ideally located for exploring the north of Northumberland and the Scottish Borders. It’s rare to find somewhere that is so perfect for dogs; the large enclosed garden, log fire and plenty of places to go for walks nearby made it a real favourite place for our two pugs! I cannot recommend this place enough and Lowri was a brilliant host with a great little guide book to help us with local recommendations!

We had a fantastic stay at the Trail House. the cottage is perfectly located for walking and cycling in the glentress forest, and is walking distance to the local pub/restaurant. the house was perfectly set up for everything we needed, and Hayley was a super responsive and flexible host.

A spacious and well maintained property in a superb location in the centre of Elie. The house is actually situated on the same road as the Ship Inn (probably the best pub/restaurant in Elie) which is very short walk away, as is the beach. The house also benefits from excellent privacy, and it has a small, completely walled in, front garden which makes it very secure for a dog (if you bring one).

What an incredible house in a beautiful neighborhood. The house is so well equipped and so clean. Lots of cereals, cookies, tea and coffee to make our stay even more perfect. The backyard was a bonus with the children. Great location too for public transportation, very easy to go anywhere. Ronnie was so responsive and so accommodating. Many thanks!

What a lovely cottage! Julie and Nigel's cottage is a real home from home, and it matches the photographs perfectly. Thoughtfully decorated, and made to feel homely with blankets, pictures, books etc. Homemade bread and delicious muffins, plus milk and tea and good coffee were most welcome. I appreciated the use of Eco friendly cleaning products and shampoos etc. Comfortable bed with cotton duvet cover and comfy pillows. Big, fluffy towels were great. There are maps and suggestions of places to visit and eat. Julie sent me some recommendations too which were helpful. Friendly neighbours who are keen to share information too. It is perfect for two people - and our dog was made ever so welcome too. Julie and Nigel were responsive to messages right from booking to the end of our stay. Thank you Julie and Nigel for letting us stay in your lovely home.

We, a family of five, enjoyed wonderful four nights in the lovely House on the Hill which was exactly as described. A great plus was the tennis court, that was very well received by our children. Walking the dog was a great experience. We used the farm cottage to explore Scottish Borders, Northumberland and of course Edinburgh. We would certainly come back and highly recommend this lovely place!

As a group of 5 girls visiting the area for a wedding 20 minutes away in Culross, Pascale's Lodge was everything we could have wanted. Pascale is so great to communicate with guests, we amended our booking to add the 2 extra people in February and she immediately adjusted the cost and informed me that it was all ok. The house has everything you need, and was comfortable even at full capacity. The countryside is so beautiful, we were sorry not to have the time to explore! It was easy to arrange for local taxis to and from the wedding venue and an Uber from the airport was reasonable too. There is just one bathroom, so we needed to stick to a rota but water was hot for every shower. We cooked on the first evening and the kitchen was perfect. It was so quiet overnight, and everyone had plenty of space to sleep. An added bonus was meeting Hector and Buddy, Pascale's beautiful dogs. This place is incredibly good value, the host is kind and communicative, we highly recommend!

We had an enjoyable weekend break in the Lookout at Pitmilly. Excellent standard of accommodation and facilities and a wonderful setting, convenient for exploring the Fife coast. Would highly recommend.

The apartment is really bright and spacious and tastefully decorated. The living area and kitchen are perfect. The apartment has everything you need including a washing machine and dryer. Audrey explained everything very clearly to us when we arrived to drop off our luggage (the owners facilitated an early drop off before 4pm). In terms of improvements, the water boiler is quite noisy so if someone used the bathroom late, it could wake other guests. We would have appreciated shampoo in the bathroom - some of our party flew with hand luggage only with a small liquids allowance. We enjoyed our stay and it was convenient for the EICC, a 10-15 minute walk. The welcome breakfast pack was a nice touch. There are plenty of restaurants nearby, including Napoli-themed Pizzeria 1926 with delicious pizzas!

A location with an interesting history; just a few minutes walk (beside the river) from Dunblane’s centre but tranquil, comfortable and secluded. Perfect to visit the surrounding area but also an easy train journey to Stirling and Edinburgh for the sights.

We had an amazing stay at the Orchard hideaway - it is in beautiful, rural and peaceful surroundings, and is exactly like the photos. It is private, warm and very clean, the hot tub is great and well maintained, and the host has thought of everything to make it a comfortable relaxing stay. We would love to come back and 100% recommend!

Clean, well looked after and easy to find

Had a wonderful stay with my family at Priscilla, would definitely recommend Priscilla. Dianne was great and friendly with communication. My Kids loved it and would love to visit again.
