About this property
Offering a secluded spot on the outskirts of Coldingham, a village in the Scottish Borders, is this charming one-bedroom annexe property, Adams house. Attached to the owner's home set on their idyllic working farm, this quaint ground-floor abode offers a romantic retreat for a couple seeking the fresh, northern air of Scotland. Spend a bright afternoon walking along the rugged coast, and come home to a warm, inviting sitting room, heated by an eco-friendly biomass heater and solar panels, you can settle down on the vibrant sofa and rest your legs. Enjoy the splendid decor that pops with colour, with rustic touches like the decorative woodburning stove adding a certain homeliness, and spend a quiet evening watching a film on the TV. Step into the beautifully-fitted kitchen, home to an electric oven and hob, along with a slimline dishwasher, and rustle up some favourite go-to recipes, or prepare a picnic for a day in the outdoors. Spend time outside in the delightful garden and look out to the sea beyond while you sip a refreshing beverage as the sun sets. Find a lovely sleeping spot in the bedroom which hosts a king-size bed, with a shower room next door providing a delightful space to freshen up. Head down to Coldingham Bay, a popular spot in the local area for a beach day with a stretch of around 1km of clean sands, with low tide exposing the lively rockpools swarming with marine life, while the beach café offers the perfect spot for a refreshment. Enjoy walks along the rugged coastline, or travel down to the bustling town of Berwick-upon-Tweed for a wonderful day out with riverside strolls, walks along the Elizabethan Walls, and Berwick's museums including Berwick Barracks and The Main Guard, as well as Berwick's Town Hall. Take a much-needed break to the Scottish Borders for a romantic stay in Adams House at Pilmuir Farm. EPC Rating: Band D

The extra little touches and the attention to detail make it feel extra special. Every where you look, inside and out is a feast for the eyes. Barry and Sandra are very welcoming, with just the right amount of friendliness and being available, as well as giving you your privacy. We had a lovely stay and would definitely recommend

So much to see and do, spectacular views. Cottage is very comfy, especially the bed! Well equipped, clean and colourful. Welcome pack with prosecco, eggs, milk, posh crisps, biscuits and a home grown courgette. The owners are lovely, non intrusive but helpful if you need anything. We will be booking for a return trip!
