Lovely place to stay in a beautiful area

We enjoyed a very relaxing break in a cottage that exceeded our expectations, complete with beautiful gardens. A great base to tour from, it is exceptionally clean, comfortable, well-equipped, and offered wonderful views of the area. Hosts were very helpful and welcoming. Highly recommended.

Plenty of everything! The host was very accomodating and kind and the cottage had everything available. Well equipped kitchen, lovely and clean bathroom and beautiful garden area onsite. The bed was very comfortable and even a little wood stove for a cozy fire (starter kit of wood/fire starters, too). Great place for a get away.

Fantastic little cottage

Absolutely loved The Garden Cottage! Very warm, cosy and comfortable. The owner has clearly put a lot of thought into it, including everything you could need. If I was to make a suggestion I would have liked a USB socket or plug as I stupidly forgot mine so shared husband’s. But that is a minor thing and I am sure if I had asked Paul or Julie would have lent me one. We particularly appreciated the milk for a cuppa and the shortbread too! Hope to be back again!

Fabulous!

We stayed three nights while visiting friends who live nearby. We couldn't have found a better place to stay! The property is beautiful and the owners are very kind and welcoming. We enjoyed chatting with them and walking around their gardens. The cottage has been fully remodeled and is very well done. The kitchen/living/dining area is open and very spacious! The kitchen has everything you'd need, along with a full size fridge/freezer! The grounds are lovely, as is the nearby woodland and river. Plenty of places to walk nearby. We only wish the weather had been drier so we could've enjoyed the outdoor patio area more. We would definitely stay here in a heartbeat if we are back in the area! Oh, and our daughters loved going to the fence to say hi to Oscar, the horse next door!

Our Canonbie stay was wonderful— the cottage was very clean, the beds beyond comfortable, and Julie provided us with local info and recommendations. Walks and nature views were tops. The only negative was that we couldn’t stay longer.

We should have stayed longer

In hindsight we should have been there for twice as many nights. The cottage was extremely well equipped, having everything that you might need for a longer stay. It was very peaceful and only a short drive from the Lake District, which was the main point of the visit. Paul and Julie were great hosts and seemed to be very tolerant of the foibles of their antipodean visitors? One piece of advice - don't visit the Lake District on a spring bank holiday weekend! It was manic!

Lovely restful break

The cottage is a lovely place for a quiet break. Clean, very warm and comfortable. Comfy beds and plenty of lovely fluffy towels. The boiler room housed a washing machine and a drying rack for any damp items of clothing or towels. Our hosts were so welcoming and friendly. We didn't personally do much travelling but there are nice walks to be had close to the river and into woodland pathways. The trees were beautiful with autumn shades, and there were pheasants who even trotted past our windows. Very dark at night so we were able to view Milky Way when it was a clear night sky.

Short & Sweet

We are just back from a lovely short reak in Garden Cottage, Canonbie. The cottage was extremely clean and cosy. Lovely, comfy beds and toasty log burner. Good walks in the area and despite the mixed weather, we enjoyed the autumnal colours and visiting the Faerie Falls. Communication with Julie was excellent too. Would recommend.

Great property - compact but very well equipped - in a very good location: quiet, close to the river, use of a garden, a very hospitable host. A difference of opinion between host and website as to time of checkout but otherwise excellent and we would hope to visit again.

Perfect base camp

We had never been to Canonbie before, or this part of the UK. Julie was very responsive from the beginning, her directions were spot on, and we felt very welcomed upon our arrival. The Garden Cottage is a beautiful little home, perfect for our little family of four to settle into. The grounds for which the cottage is situated are beautiful, the people there are friendly, even Oscar the Horse in the neighbouring field came graced us with his presence (might've been the apple that caught his attention). There are great walks near to the cottage, easy commute to Carlise, Gretna, Kielder and the Lakes. Lots of history to explore. The cottage has been tastefully decorated, its very well equipped with all that you'll need, beds are very comfortable and the garden is another beautiful space too. We're already looking to book again next year and have days out at the coast or even a day in Glasgow! This is a hidden gem. I almost don't want to tell anyone about it and keep it to ourselves!
