A light filled studio space, with large bathroom and balcony bedroom

Barns Bothy is a newly renovated and extremely comfortable bolt hole, in a beautiful setting. Comfortable bed, spacious bathroom, log burning stove and well equipped kitchen. Large garden and room to store your bikes. Lots of heavenly walks from the front door. Enjoy this perfect space for two people, or take Barns Library and Barns Tower, both next door for a group of up to 10 friends.
The space
Barns Bothy is light filled, warm and comfortable. A perfect place to hide away for a few days from the hurly burly of life. Plenty of breathtaking walks right from the front door, and a pretty garden to spend time in.
Guest access
Guests can enjoy walking extensively in the Barns Estate. The Arboretum is just opposite the Bothy, and there are woodland, riverside and hill top walks in every direction.
Other things to note
If the Bothy is already booked for your preferred dates, we do also have 2 other unusual and luxurious properties just nearby at Barns Library and Barns Tower. Both of these can be booked either directly or through VRBO.
The cottage is heated and features a kitchen and space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and an ironing board.

Perfect for a stay in the Scottish Borders.

Our return visit to The Bothy was everything we hoped it would be. It is beautifully designed, warm, bright and comfortable. It is very well situated just outside Peebles and not far from the River Tweed. We look forward to staying there again soon.

Lovely stay

Absolutely love Barns Bothy! Beautiful location - quiet and rural but very convenient for Peebles and the gorgeous Dawyck Gardens. Dark sky as we were lucky with the weather. Everything we needed was there and everything so comfy. Amazing shower and bath! Just one thing - more information on what we can recycle ie plastics and tins and which bin to put them in! Many thanks for sharing this lovely place!

Beautiful wee cottage

We had a wonderful stay at Barns Bothy. It's a beautiful wee cottage, clean and comfortable. The shower was great, too! It was so convenient for us as we had our wedding at the walled garden. The only thing I would recommend as an improvement is a later check out time, specially if there's been an event at the venue. Super stay, would recommend!

A Romantic Getaway

My husband and I rented Barns Bothy for our 1st wedding anniversary and it was incredibly lovely. A great option for those who want to getaway yet be close to quite a few laces to see. The place was so nicely decorated, updated, clean, had stocked some snacks/groceries for us, and had much charm. The admin team for the estate was incredibly lovely. We would recommend this place for anyone coming to the Scottish borders.

Lovely stay at Barns Bothy

Excellent stay at Barns Bothy. We revisited it after staying in the Library for our son's wedding in July. The Bothy is a great retreat to get away from it all. The place was immaculate on arrival. Will definitely be back.

The Bothy - A Perfect Autumn Break

This is our second stay with Neidpath Estate, our first was in Barns Tower and loved it, so we knew we wouldn’t be disappointed with The Bothy. As soon as we arrived we felt welcome. The property was warm and cosy, beautifully furnished and well equipped. The housekeeping team prepare everything so nicely for guests and that adds to that homely welcome. When we emailed regarding booking an extra night, the request was dealt with quickly and very efficiently. We know we will be back!
