Descripción de la casa que ofrecemos en intercambio
Welcome to our happy and homely house! We live in a three bedroom terraced house in a small village about 10 miles from Edinburgh and 10 miles from Linlithgow. We have a new kitchen which has everything you need cooker, induction hob, fridge freezer and dishwasher; connected to the kitchen is the conservatory where you can sit at the table and look at the garden and sometimes the cows in the field. We have a living room and playroom with TV, sofas, chair, wood stove and lots of toys. Downstairs we have one en-suite bedroom with a double bed and room to add another small bed too. Upstairs there is another double room and a child's bedroom, normally there is one bed here but we can add another small one or cot if needed. We have a family bathroom upstairs with a bath, shower, toilet and sink. next to the bathroom we have the washer and dryer. Our house is about 200 years old with some newer bits added, so nothing is perfectly straight but it all works and is a good home.
Outside we have a garden with grass, flowers and a patio area.
Our village is very friendly and has a little park, a shop, petrol station and some walks including to locations used in Outlander but unfortunately has very little public transport so we strongly recommend having a car. It is possible to park on the street opposite or there is a small neighbourhood car park.

Descripción de nuestro barrio y la zona en que se encuentra
Our neighbourhood is friendly but quiet. There is a road that goes through the village but it does not normally disturb us as the bedrooms are at the back and we can see fields at the other side of the house.
There are many activities within a short drive including beautiful golf courses, but unfortunately we have only an infrequent bus so a car is needed here. The nearest train station is about 3 miles away and will take you to Edinburgh in 20 minutes or from the same station you can take a bus to the city. In the other direction 10 miles away the station at Linlithgow takes you to Glasgow in 30 minutes or Stirling.

Dónde ir y qué hacer mientras se esté en nuestra casa
There is a small beach you can walk to in half an hour and it is a beautiful walk to Blackness or Midhope castle. You can also walk to Hopetoun House and South Queensferry (but it is a big hill).
It is easy to visit many of Scotland's historic sites from the house, Stirling, Perth, Glasgow, Edinburgh are all within one hour. There are beautiful beaches available in Fife and the highlands begin about 2 hours north. Locally there is a small town of South Queensferry with cafes, restaurants, supermarket and small shops. It is home to the historic Forth Rail Bridge and the impressive two newer car bridges. It is possible to walk there but it is a big hill on the way back up! A twenty minute drive away is the bigger town of Linlithgow home to the palace, swimming pool, a range of shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants.

It is important to leave the house as you find it, if you like we can arrange a cleaner so you can relax on your last day. We would like you to feed our lovely, friendly cat. He is affectionate and used to sleeping a lot. We also have a small fish tank that needs food once a day. We have a dog but probably won't be here when you are. We can discuss car share and if your pet is suitable for our house. No smoking please.
