Randyford is a 5-bedroom townhouse sleeping 10 at 69 Randyford, Falkirk (FK2 9DG), in central Scotland. Built for work-stay teams and tourist groups with equal weight: off-street parking for two vehicles plus on-street parking immediately outside, a fully-equipped kitchen for crew breakfasts, two work-from-stay bedrooms with desks, a 3-night minimum stay that suits short-rotation site work, and self check-in for late arrivals. Ten minutes by car to INEOS Grangemouth and the Earlsgate Distribution Centre; five minutes to the Kelpies and the Helix; three minutes to Falkirk Stadium. Pets welcome.
Randyford was added to the Kaul Group portfolio for the audience that books central Scotland for work, not just for holidays. INEOS Grangemouth — the largest petrochemical complex in Scotland and the site that drives most of the local work-stay professional demand — is ten minutes east. The Earlsgate Distribution Centre is one mile. Forth Valley College and Falkirk Stadium are walking distance. Falkirk Wheel and the Kelpies sit on the same map. Across the Forth Valley between Edinburgh and Glasgow runs a steady demand from work-stay teams on rotation, project teams on week-long shifts, and individual work-stay professionals on month-long jobs. The house is built around them.
The practical specifics that decide a work-stay professional booking: off-street parking on the driveway plus unrestricted on-street parking directly outside, a fully-equipped kitchen with the cookware to make a crew breakfast at 5am, two of the five bedrooms set up with desks and HDMI-ready TVs for paperwork and video calls, a 3-night minimum stay that suits short-rotation site work, self check-in via smart lock for arrivals after a long drive, and pets welcome at no extra charge for work-stay professionals who travel with their dogs. £195 a night for the whole house at full occupancy works out at £19.50 per person per night for a crew of ten — less than half of any Premier Inn or Travelodge rate in Falkirk and with a kitchen, a work-from-home setup, and parking that hotel rooms can’t match.
The house works just as well for the other half of the central Scotland market. The Kelpies and the Helix are five minutes from the front door, the Falkirk Wheel a further three, Stirling Castle twenty, and both Edinburgh and Glasgow city centres reachable in under three-quarters of an hour by direct motorway. Group bookings — football weekenders at Falkirk Stadium, families touring Scotland with Falkirk as a central base, milestone-birthday weekends — fill the house the same way.

Common questions — for work-stay professionals
Is Randyford suitable for work-stay teams working at INEOS Grangemouth?
+
Yes — this is the largest single work-stay professional draw the house serves. INEOS Grangemouth is ten minutes by car (around four miles), with direct M9 and M876 access from the front door. The house sleeps up to 10 across five bedrooms, with off-street parking for two vehicles and unrestricted on-street parking outside. At full occupancy, the rate works out at £19.50 per person per night — less than half what the same crew would pay at Premier Inn Falkirk for individual rooms, with a kitchen, two work-from-stay bedrooms, and parking that hotels can’t offer.
Can I park a Transit-sized van or larger commercial vehicle?
+
The driveway accommodates a mini-van or large SUV (Range Rover-sized or smaller). For Transit-sized vans and larger commercial vehicles, unrestricted on-street parking is available immediately outside the house and along the surrounding residential roads — no permits, no charges, no time limits. Park the van on the street, the car on the drive.
Where can I store tools and kit overnight?
+
Inside the house. The under-stairs cupboard on the ground floor is available for secure overnight tool storage — out of sight from any passing window, behind a locked front door. PPE, boots, and hi-vis can stay at the entrance hallway.
Do you provide receipts or VAT invoices for expense claims?
+
Yes. VAT-compliant invoices on request, with company name, dates, and amount, formatted to put through any standard expense system. Email [email protected] with your booking reference and we’ll send the invoice the same day.
What’s the rate for a week-long or month-long stay?
+
Discounted weekly and monthly rates are available on direct enquiry rather than the published nightly rate. Email [email protected] with your dates, group size, and project details, and we’ll quote you direct — usually inside four hours.
Can I book a single bedroom rather than the whole house?
+
No — Randyford is a whole-house rental only. The £195 nightly rate covers the entire five-bedroom property, sleeping up to ten guests. For solo work-stay professionals on long contracts, the maths still works: a six-week stay shared with a few colleagues from the same firm is the natural use case, and the rate per head drops sharply as the group fills.
Is there laundry and drying space for workwear?
+
Yes. A washing machine is available in the house. The conservatory at the back of the house is the dedicated drying space — light, ventilated, with room for a drying rack of wet workwear that hotel rooms have no equivalent for. Comes into its own after a wet day on a Grangemouth or Forth Valley site.
Are early starts (5am) and late finishes OK?
+
Yes. Self check-in via a smart lock means the code works around the clock — arrive at 11pm, leave at 5am, no front-desk check-in to navigate. The kitchen is fully equipped for a proper breakfast at 5am without a hotel buffet timetable; the two convenience stores within a two-minute walk handle anything you forgot.
Can I work from the house during the stay?
+
Two of the bedrooms (Om and Twilight) are set up as work-from-stay rooms with desks, chairs, and TVs that take HDMI for second-screen use. WiFi is high-speed and reaches the whole property — video-call grade. Regular bookings from work-stay professionals at Forth Valley College and the Earlsgate Distribution Centre use the house for week-long stays where work and sleep happen in the same place.
Common questions — for tourist groups
How many people sleep here, and how are the bedrooms configured?
+
Up to 10 guests across five bedrooms on the first floor. Three super-king bedrooms (Om, Twilight, Power), one with a single bed and a pull-out trundle that extends to a double (Blaze), and one with a double bed (Fifth). Om and Twilight face the rear garden and are set up as work-from-stay rooms with desks and TVs; Power, Blaze, and Fifth face the front of the house.
Is the property close to the Kelpies and Helix Park?
+
Yes — The Kelpies and Helix Park are a mile from the front door, a five-minute drive. The Falkirk Wheel is a further three minutes on. Both are the dominant tourist draws for Falkirk, and Randyford is one of the closer holiday lets to either.
Can the house accommodate Falkirk Stadium event groups?
+
Falkirk Stadium is half a mile away — a three-minute drive or a fifteen-minute walk. The house sleeps ten, which is roughly the size of a small group attending a match or concert together. The layout splits the group across the five bedrooms and reconvenes in the ground-floor living, dining, and conservatory areas.
Are pets welcome?
+
Yes — mindful pet owners welcome at no extra charge. Please keep dogs off bedroom beds. The rear patio is enclosed; for proper exercise, the Helix Park (five-minute drive) has 350 acres of open space and a canal towpath.
What’s the cancellation policy?
+
Free cancellation up to 7 days before arrival. Within 7 days, the booking is non-refundable but transferable to another date in the same calendar year, subject to availability.

“Thank you for all of your help. Really nice place to stay while we were working in the area.”
Kevin · October 2025 · 5/5 · Work-stay professional stay
“Very convenient place. We were 2 families without a car and it is very easy to reach the train station as well as the nearby shopping area to visit the area. The neighbourhood is quiet, the house is spacious. Our host was very responsive.”
Philippe · August 2025 · 5/5 · Family trip
“We had a family break there and it was nice. Good location and easy to park our cars.”
Gowthaman · August 2025 · 5/5 · Family trip
“Great stay we had. Nice location away from Edinburgh and shops close by which always was helpful. Intermittent WiFi issues but we all had data so no problem with reception. Only downside was one WC — which was advertised so we were already aware of it. Recommend the place if you’re looking to visit around with your family.”
