Relaxing family get-together
We had a wonderful family birthday celebration at Airhouses in the Buchanan. The location is beautiful and peaceful and the lodge has everything you need. The accomodation is kitted out with high quality fittings and furnishings whilst remaining very comfortable and relaxing. The hot tub was great fun and the children enjoyed feeding the animals, particularly the donkeys and Shetland ponies. Highly recommended!

Just beautiful
A beautiful, cosy, homely cottage with everything you need for a comfortable stay; house is immaculate throughout, a home from home. What an amazing place to stay! We loved the animals and how friendly they all were. Lots of lovely walks with the kids and our dog with the added pleasure of relaxing in the hot tub afterwards. Welcome pack was a lovely gesture. A special thanks to Damien for his help. Needless to say, our kids already want to come back. We will definitely be booking again!

Our Christmas holiday at airhouses
We have spent Christmas at Airhouses many times, we have stayed in every lodge also the capercaillie. We had a fantastic time every single holiday. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. They can't do enough for you. All our children and Grandchildren love it. We are booked for next Christmas already. Can't wait

A perfect Scottish getaway
I don’t think we could have found a better holiday home. The children loved feeding the friendly farm animals, the adults loved the hot tub with incredible views and we all loved the charming lodge equipped with everything we needed and filled with comfortable and high end furniture and fittings. The location is great, easy access to Edinburgh while still being nestled in the countryside. The hosts were friendly and extremely helpful. I can’t recommend it enough - we are already planning to go back with our extended family. What a find.

Home away from home...and more.
The Buchanan Lodge accommodation is excellent. Very clean throughout and all rooms tastefully furnished. The welcome pack provided is not only very generous but also of top quality. The kitchen is very well equipped and the extra fridge/freezer in the store cupboard is a real plus. Great to have environmentally friendly products for cleaning and various bins/boxes for recycling. The hot tub is a real bonus and the daily checks in no way intrusive. There are various outdoor seating options and cushions and recliners are stored in the boiler room (a great place for drying swimwear etc. - with clothes rack provided). The honesty shop and pop up coffee shop are great facilities. Damian and family were always more than happy to help with questions abut the lodge, farm and further afield. Booking and subsequent communications were all processed speedily and efficiently. The Airhouses family team, deserve to be very proud of themselves, for providing such first class facilities in a very beautiful and peaceful environment.

Perfect Weekend with the family catching up and relaxing!
We decided to take advantage of a very good discount and book a last minute weekend stay at The Buchanan. As usual everything was perfect and we were able to take advantage of the thoughtfully placed outside furniture as the weather was beautiful. After the amazing thunder and lightning storm, Damian came round the lodges to check everything was ok, very thoughtful! Our welcome bag we receive with delicious goodies is alway gratefully received. Thank you again to all the team at Airhouses !

Lovely lodge in a lovely location. The hot tub was excellent and well used by all of us. The pop up coffee shop is a great addition to the site as well as the on site shop. Little extras like the welcome hamper and dog welcome basket were appreciated.
