Birthday Celebrations
A group of us stayed for the weekend and what an awesome experience it was! Can not fault the property at all, the house, garden, bbq hut, pool and views were all simply stunning. The wee added extras like bbq equipment, board games, pool games etc just added to what was truly an epic weekend away with friends. Small heads up though, VRBO advertise the property as sleeping 12 but in fact it only sleeps 10 adults and has a couple of complimentary pull out beds which are suitable for children only. We had booked for 12 adults which would have put us over occupancy. We had a couple who couldn't make it in the end which solved the problem but it could be an issue to some. Overall 10/10 for our stay though and would totally recommend.

Perfect getaway
This property is fabulous for a group of friends or a family getaway. All rooms, bedrooms and sitting rooms are spacious and comfortable. The pool area is warm and great that there is a coded door so youngsters can’t access without an adult. Would highly recommend

Great family time spent
We’ve just had a lovely stay at the Tillows with family ranging from age 7 to 70. The pool is a great asset and there is everything you need in the property, even games. We had a lovely BBQ using the BBQ hut which was also great for roasting marshmallows.

Fantastic holiday
Our group consisted of 8 adults, two teenagers, a two year old and a one year old. We had an absolutely fabulous time. The swimming pool was brilliant for everybody. Jacuzzi bath just bliss. Toys for the children were an added bonus. Loads of space in the house and outside.

Family Easter stay
Beautiful house, very clean and fully equipped- perfect break and the swimming pool was a highlight. Only minor suggestion would be that it would be helpful to have hooks on the back of bathroom / bedroom doors for hanging towels / dressing gowns but otherwise everything was perfect. Will definitely book again!

Lovely family retreat
The house was very clean and provided everything we needed. We stayed for a long weekend and had a great time. The pool was slightly cold, but once you were in, you got used to it. The BBQ pit was great for roasting marshmallows! Overall a great property, especially for family getaways. I would definitely recommend.

Wonderful Family Time
Tillows is well laid out and very easy to settle into and find everything. Beds and comfortable, everyone got a good nights sleep. Pool is safely secured, we had set swimming times and could relax knowing the pool was locked when not in use. We were treated with the stunning 360 views of the Scottish countryside. The house is very easy to find. The bbq hut was a cosy spot in the evening to enjoy hot chocolate and toasted M marshmallows. We found Tillows a lovely place to all spend quality family time together. Kids were in their element. Plan to book the same experience again next year. Highly recommend, Thank-you Tillows and to all who work hard to make it a wonderful vacation.

Family break for 60th birthday
We have just returned from a 4 night break with family for a 60th birthday. Ages ranged from 1 year old to 60 and the tillows had something for everyone, it was just amazing. From the swimming pool, to the goal posts outside, the numerous seating areas and the BBQ hut. We had the best time, the checkin was so simple and easy, there was literally no hassle. The hosts have thought of everything. There was floats left in the pool area, a cupboard full of games for adults and kids, baby toys, travel cot, highchair. The pictures really do not do the place justice at all. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much.
