Only thing it lacked was an enclosed garden for the dogs to go out into without supervision.

Self catering but owner did leave us some free range eggs to use.

A wonderful private apartment, with owners who have great local knowledge. Friendly owners, but of course leave you to your privacy - but let you know to contact them if you need anything at all (as they are just next door). Great location beside a river with lots of wildlife and country walks. Really out in the middle of nature. Lots of birds up at the birdfeeder viewable from kitchen table and also a nesting box with a family of bluetits. The owners and the apartment really were spot-on.

There was nothing to complain about.

I loved the quite peaceful location. The scenery is beautiful around the cottage. The river running beside the cottage was lovely, and the wildlife was amazing to watch.

This is a charming cozy riverside retreat to stay at with plenty of walks along the river or into the woods and is exactly like pictures on line. Alison and Bill, hosts, give you a warm welcome and are friendly and helpful. When shown around first thing put on was the kettle, for a welcome drink especially if you have had a long journey. Cups out with homemade flapjack was a treat. It is a peaceful and a get away from everything place, so don’t rely on internet signal. Plenty of small birds about and a hooting owl at night, with an otter or two to watch out for. There is a cabin and small summer house you can use to sit in with a cuppa and just relax. It suited us very well and dogs enjoyed it too. It can take you 20-30 mins to get to a good inn/ hotel for some food and I would recommend the Allanton Inn at Allanton, the Wheatsheaf at Swinton and the 1902 Bar at the Dunmuir Hotel, Dunbar. It was a lovely place to explore with plenty of walks, not too far from coast and we even got over to holy island. There is all you need for your stay, even a dishwasher. Enjoy.

all was good and met our expectations

The host Allison stayed up until we arrived to check in, she was so helpful showed us the place, and asked if we needed anything or had forgotten something. The place was clean and exactly as the pictures online

There was nothing I didn't like. A perfect stay!

Truly loved my stay here. It's in such a relaxing location! The unit itself was spacious and well appointed, comfortable and calm. The hosts and their family were some of the kindest people I've met and they went out of their way to be sure I had everything I needed. 🥰 The river and the walk along the river were so peaceful -- exactly what I needed for my solo retreat. In addition to the spacious flat, there is also a lovely cabin overlooking the river and a cute little summer house that guests are allowed to use (on a first come first served basis, but I never had to wait for a turn.) An absolutely wonderful place and one I hope to return to! Also, the Scottish Borders are beautiful in every way and worthy of a visit!

The nature there is beautiful and the vacation home has a really nice garden to enjoy the surroundings during the day and to do some stargazing at night. The hosts were very kind and generous. The dishwasher was an unexpected but welcome bonus. FYI for dog owners: There is no fence around the house, so it is not possible to let your dog roam around in the garden unattended. However, a nice path into the woods and by the river to walk the dog.

No mobile network around the area. Rely the wifi network inside the cottage.

Nice place, sheeps and birds, fresh air, stream in front of the cottage. A cosy place for retreat. Host are friendly and helpful. I Should have spent more days in here...

Nothing!

Beautiful peaceful setting. Surrounded by trees and plenty of birdlife around. Especially loved hearing the owl at night. Stars were amazing as no light pollution. Hosts Alison and Bill were a Godsend!

WiFi in the rooms the signal was not strong for me to work on the laptop but it is small thing . Nothing else in my mind.

I liked everything about the place 🙂...I liked the owners very kind family and helpful.

Internet was awful. No satallite channels either.

The surroundings. The cottage and the wildlife.

Stayed in July 2022

I was a bit nervous of the long single track lane that led to the accommodation, as there were very few passing places.

The setting was stunning with river walks straight from the door, and birds nesting all around the cottage. Lots of interesting places to visit in the area, such as Duns and St Abbs. The owners were exceedingly hospitable.

Stayed in June 2022

Nothing to really complain about, we loved it.

Fantastic setting with scenic trails close by, all amenities available so didn't feel we needed anything more. Good views from accommodation too with added bird box outside kitchen, enjoyed seeing a Blue Tit nest building during our stay as well. Whilst there we met Alison and Bill who were super helpful. All in all a fantastic break away. Roads were quiet whilst we were investigating the area, felt remote and so part of countryside with more activity in the way of pubs/attractions 20 mins away.

Cleanliness of accomodation and needs a complete refurbishment. Shower curtain was black at the bottom. Furniture was very old. I raised an issue with the owner and was offered a free night if I booked further nights however, I didn't want to return.

Location was nice for a few days.
