About this property

Down a quiet street in the village of Coldingham lies 7 Bogan, a terrace cottage in the Scottish Borders, bursting with character and well presented after an extensive renovation. Just under two miles from the beach, and with several local amenities, you can enjoy the breath-taking countryside and open spaces whilst still having the essentials close by, so it is perfect for families or a walking group. On entering the property, you will find yourself at the bottom of the stairs, and to your right there is a good-sized ground-floor double, with ample storage space and a window looking out to the tranquil street. Turn around and go further into the property to take advantage of the cosy sitting room, which not only has plush leather sofas, but in the centre there lies a woodburning stove, ready to warm you up on a chilly winter's night, or maybe a summers eve after the sun has gone down. The splendid fitted kitchen/diner provides an inviting place to sit and relax as a meal is prepared and the events of the day are talked over with friends, with the added benefit of a utility room and a ground-floor bathroom. Climb the stairs and discover the final two bedrooms; a double and a single which are joined on by an ample bathroom containing a gorgeous freestanding bath and separate shower. Perfect for enjoying the summer months, outside there is a patio area where you can sit, or why not put a blanket down on the grass, and take in the fresh air? A leisurely stroll from the property will bring you to Coldingham Bay, the 'Keep Scotland Beautiful' award-winning sandy beach on Berwickshire's rocky coast, which is sheltered by headlands to the north and south and is popular with surfers and body boarders. Further out in the nearby towns you can find a plethora of days out and activities to choose from, like Berwick-upon-Tweed which is home to Chain Bridge Honey Farm established to allow the public to discover first-hand the extraordinary tale of bees and honey, with the observation hive giving you the chance to view a living colony of bees behind glass! For those a little more adventurous, you have to travel over to St Abbs, just a couple of miles from Coldingham, where it is considered to be a World Top Ten diving centre and is world-renowned, with superb walks over the St Abbs nature reserve there is surely something for everyone. An attractive property like 7 Bogan ensures you will have a delightful time exploring the Scottish Borders, making new memories in this lovely part of the world. EPC Rating: Band C

The village of Coldingham nestles in between rolling farmland above Coldingham Bay, a sheltered crescent of golden sand on the beautiful Berwickshire coastline. With a fabulous beach and excellent canoeing and surfing, the village also offers an array of local shops, pubs and restaurants. St. Abbs, a quaint and picturesque fishing village is one mile away and its Nature Reserve is renowned for its variety of birds and wealth of marine life, which attracts sub aqua divers the world over.

    Lots of thoughtful extras, for us and the dogs! Loved opening the back door and hearing the birds singing. Lovely location, too, in a quiet lane yet perfectly placed for easy access to local towns, beaches and other attractions. We all had a perfect week.

    The cottage is the best equipped we have been to. Immaculately clean and very cosy and welcoming in the most peaceful relaxing setting. Plenty of lovely dog walks around Coldingham. Had a small problem with the plumbing and the owner got this sorted really quickly and was super helpful which was appreciated. Would recommend this property and will return.
