Stenton Cottage

Dunbar, East Lothian

4

Stenton Cottage, nestled in the picturesque village of Stenton in East Lothian, Scotland, offers a charming retreat for up to four guests. This delightful countryside cottage combines modern decor with period features, creating a cozy ambiance perfect for a relaxing getaway. Located southwest of Dunbar and in proximity to North Berwick and Edinburgh, Stenton Cottage serves as an ideal base for exploring the beautiful surroundings, including the village’s rich history, notable architecture, and scenic countryside walks. The village itself is recognized as an Outstanding Conservation Area, showcasing well-preserved buildings and historical sites, such as the Gothic parish church built in 1829 and the historic Rushlaw House and Whittingehame House, which were once home to Prime Minister Arthur Balfour.

The interior of Stenton Cottage is designed for comfort and sociability, featuring a beautifully finished living room equipped with a log-burning stove, plush seating, and calming color palettes. The kitchen diner is equally inviting, boasting shaker-style cabinetry and an ancient oven set in the fireplace, perfect for self-catering meals. Upstairs, guests will find two tastefully decorated double bedrooms, each offering village views and charming details such as feature fireplaces. The immaculate bathroom enhances the cottage's appeal with its modern amenities, including a bath and separate shower, complemented by luxurious toiletries and fluffy towels.

Stenton is a quaint farming village with a history dating back to the 1500s, surrounded by expansive farmland and offering numerous walking trails right from the cottage's doorstep. Nearby, the small town of East Linton lies along the River Tyne and features attractions such as Preston Mill, a National Trust property, and the historic Phantassie Doo’cot. Visitors can also explore Smeaton Lake, known for its lush trees and diverse waterfowl, or delve into aviation history at the National Museum of Flight. The cottage's location provides easy access to the coastal charm of North Berwick, famous for its sandy beaches, vibrant shops, and the renowned Scottish Seabird Centre.

In addition to the local attractions, Stenton Cottage is conveniently situated for day trips to Edinburgh, a city rich in culture and history. Visitors can explore iconic landmarks such as Edinburgh Castle, St Giles Cathedral, and the Royal Botanic Gardens. The city's vibrant shopping and dining scenes are complemented by various events throughout the year, including the North Berwick Highland Games and Puffin Fest. With its combination of historical charm, modern comforts, and proximity to both countryside and city attractions, Stenton Cottage promises a memorable escape in the heart of East Lothian.
