Magical place

Lovely spacious well-heated house in beautiful countryside. We had a week of snowy weather which was heavenly. Edward, the owner was extremely helpful. He towed out some cars which got stuck in the car park by the house, provided lots of logs, replaced the washing machine which had problems and was generally a great help. This is a house for people who like old books and furnishings...don't go there if you want modern posh.

Excellent property in an excellent location with a very French chateau feel

We had an amazing time in this beautiful old 18th century property - it felt very much like a French chateau with its faded elegance, charm and homely living. The house is spacious and set in beautiful surroundings with wild deer and horses roaming in the fields and a myriad of birds roosting and populating the skies. The fireplace was cosy, the outside space and hot tub inviting and the large comfortable sofas were great for curling up in and reading or watching TV. There is also a grand piano which we made full use of . Edward was a perfect host and made us feel at ease and right at home straight from the start ! We also had use of a kayak and boat on the nearby loch and the walk around the loch is very pretty. There are some great towns to explore nearby such as Kelso, Jedburgh, Alnwick and Berwick upon Tweed. We would certainly stay here again and would highly recommend it!

Wonderful Birthday Booking

We had a fabulous stay at the property and spent many evenings in the hot tub. We also took the boat out on the loch which the kids just loved.
