I would recommend Mill Hall Cottage to anyone waiting a change of pace from the rush of everyday life. The cottage has a modern interior and 1 of the best equipped kitchens of anywhere I have ever stayed. The location is ideal Newburgh is perfectly situated to explore the Scottish countryside. Newburgh itself, is small but somehow seems to have everything that you might need, pubs, cafes, supermarket, vet, hairdressers - the list goes on. The apple walk over the road from the cottage was a big hit with our dog. the owner replied very promptly to any questions that I asked and had left useful info in the cottage as well, the torches were very handy for the pre-bedtime dog walk. I would definitely stay here again, if it wasn't such a long drive from home.
