    What our customers say about their holidays

    • Peter - Verified booking

      It appeared that Iona Cottage had only been open for a short time this year as there were only a few entries in the visitors book however we were delighted with the cottage, the fixtures and fittings and location.

      The layout of the rooms is very good and definitely suits families and our two granddaughters loved the twin room in the eves with the on suite facilities. As we are experienced in booking this type of accommodation we woul like to offer the following constructive comments that we are sure would enhance the experience even further. First the frontage of the cottage is very attractive apart from the wooden board and gravel immediately in fron of the steps to the front door. This we believe is a potential trip hazard especially for anyone who has mobility issues. The mattress protector and fitted sheet for the double bed is too small as the kept coming away from the mattress which made sleeping a little uncomfortable and the mattress itself could be of a better quality as you could feel the springs when laying down. The washing machine is a great fixture, especially for anyone staying for more than a few days however there isn't a clothes line in the back garden so this is something that we would recommend is corrected quickly. The Red Book in the dining room needs to have more and clear information about how to operate the White Goods and the central heating making it easier for clients to operate these safely. As the property is rural, which is great, it would help if the owners could provide, in the Red book, information regarding local facilities, such as shops, and things to see and do in the area. Finally we would congratulate the owners on the overall experience and we would recommend the cottage to family and friends. Mr & Mrs Smith, Glenrothes, Fife Finally although it's nice to have a county style rear garden that is dog friendly and saceure the garden does need urgent maintenance to make the space more usable for the stay.

    • Rachel - Verified booking

      This is a really pretty cottage in a quiet pretty village however to be a retreat you need to be 3 things, dry, comfortable and rested.

      This cottage is being let down by basic problems. The 3 single beds have 1 mattress that is adequate, I spent the first night on the sofa to try and get some sleep. The pink bedroom is very damp, all clothes hanging in the cupboards quickly smelt of damp and the bedding on the grey bed also smells of damp. The garden is very neglected, I weeded the steps to create a safe path for my husband, and there is a pond which would be dangerous if we had small children. This is such a shame because the rest of the cottage is lovely, the kitchen is well equipped. The sitting room is cozy with French windows that looked onto the garden. The locks on the French windows and the front door are very tricky and at times impossible to lock or unlock. Because of the rural nature of the cottage the Wi-Fi is very limited so I advise doing your research before you get to the cottage for places to go. We did find the most of the local pubs had better Wi-Fi if we needed to load books to kindle or look something up. If the above issues were sorted out we would have no hesitation in returning to such a lovely place. So much more to explore.

    • Clive - Verified booking

      Overall, a very nice, clean spacious property with comfortable furniture and excellent views.

      A good base to explore the area, and a quiet and relaxing safe retreat after a day out. There was good outdoor furniture provided front and back to enjoy the position of the sun and enjoy the local picturesque views. Our Grandchildren enjoyed the very safe garden and the local wildlife / farm animals. In the double bedroom, it would have been useful for us to have an electric shower fitted above the bath. This would save having to use one of the showers fitted in the other two rooms. That said, having en-suite in each bedroom and a downstairs toilet was a welcome bonus. The property has its odd quirks. Not really an issue but some of the doors could do with easing and oiling to prevent creaks and odd stiffness. We would certainly be happy to return if visiting the area in future.

    • Mrs Hosie - Verified booking

      Just returned from a lovely week spent at 1 Smiths Wind. Perfect home in an ideal location in the middle of Jedburgh, right off the main street but quiet. So many areas to visit in the local and surrounding areas. We took our 8 month old puppy on his first holiday and he was in his element in the house, not to mention a couple of the local pubs! Everything you could ask for on your doorstep, with handy private parking space just round the corner. Mary Queen of Scots house just a few steps away. The house itself had everything we needed (and more) and was well equipped to a high standard, just like being at home. Friendly neighbours and lovely owner who was very helpful and easy to communicate with. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend a stay here and will definitely return.

    • Fiona - Verified booking

      This is a great cottage in a lovely quiet area.

      It is deceptively spacious, very comfortably accommodating our party of four adults and a dog. There is loads of storage and a well equipped kitchen. It was nice and warm when we entered and we appreciated the option to adjust the heating if required. As previous reviews have noted the single ensuite room was cold - we think the radiator may need attention. The wifi router appears to be faulty and we had no wifi for the duration of our stay. Phone signal is very good but this was inadequate, given that the television required wifi and therefore mobile data was drained quickly. Once these issues are addressed, it will be a super cottage.
