Joan
It was great to find a cottage that had:- Doors that didn't squeak Appliances such as cookers /television / microwave that were simple and uncomplicated to operate And owners who were at hand to make our stay so pleasant... the drizzle cake on arrival was most welcome!! We would recommend this property to anyone looking for a holiday in an area full of history and impressive scenery. Places such as Melrose, Hawick, Berwick on Tweed and Jedburgh are all within short drives.

We had everything we needed in the cottage for our stay. Very clean, comfortable and spacious. A lovely warm welcome from owners Peter and Christine, very friendly couple, just next door. If you want total peace and tranquility, this is the cottage for you. Loved it!
