Lovely place to stay! Mary and Donald are excellent hosts and cook a superb breakfast. The house is clean, quite beautiful, and historic. It's about a 10 minute walk from plenty of shops and restaurants. Would happily stay at the Gables again.

Lovely welcoming host who was very accommodating about an early check in to suit our needs. Clean, comfortable room and in a great location. Made us a special early breakfast so we could have something substantial before we headed off.

A Cozy and Convenient Stay

The place was just as described and had everything we needed. The real highlight was the excellent breakfast, and the service was outstanding. The location is also very convenient if you’re visiting Edinburgh or traveling to other parts of the Highlands. The only downside was that the sink tap didn’t have hot water

Would stay again if in the area but need ear plugs if in the family room with the busy road out the front. Lovely breakfast but no options given, all were served cooked breakfast. Lovely selection of yoghurts and fresh fruit. Very friendly and attentive.

Mary cooked a delicious full English Breakfast for us. She was very accomadating and welcoming. We arrived at 8am, 8 hours before check in time and she held our luggage for us while we went to explore. Bathgate is a cute town and there are plenty of restaurants and shops walking distance from The Gables. The train station is an easy walk. We took the train into downtown Edinburgh. The rooms are clean, beds comfortable, water nice and hot, and Wi-Fi is included. Mary provided bottled water, tea and coffee service in the room and snacks. 10/10 great stay.
