Very comfy, homely feel. Warm and cosy. Everything there that you could want. Not a huge drive away from anywhere. Loads of castles and history within easy reach.. Nature is abundant. If you want to get away properly, this is the place to be..

We had a fantastic time staying in Ettrickbridge. We loved the area and the quirky house. We felt at home straightaway. The children were really happy that there were so many toys to play with and a piano. There was plenty of space and the views of the countryside were relaxing and pretty. Thank you so much for the Selkirk bannock which we enjoyed on arrival. We hope we can visit again!

From start to finish Jamie was communicative and very helpful. The house was exactly as described and was perfect for our family (4) getaway. Great location - we're already planning a return visit!

Fantastic place to start the year tranquil. A roaring fire in the evening and the ability to play with my children at the creek and hike on top of the surrounding hills has been a true possibility to enjoy the moment.

Exactly as described,

Home away from home! We were so comfortable here, perfect location for hikes in the surrounding countryside and day trips to Edinburgh and Glasgow. Jamieson was easy to get in touch with and provided us with more than enough info before arrival. The house was warm and had everything we could possibly need, plenty of room in the kitchen for everyone to sit down together, and you can't beat a wood burning fireplace on a cold February eve! Best little pub in Ettrickbridge, the Cross Keys, with amazing staff and delicious food. Already planning our next trip back to the UK with a stop in at 2 Inner Huntley next year. Thank you Jamieson!

A lovely, quirky cottage which is well set up to welcome families. Our boys loved having access to the woods for den and bridge building. Cottage was lovely and clean and super communication with Jamie before we got there. Would go again for sure!

Great communication ... made every effort to make sure we had all relevant information before we arrived. We were a group of six recently retired old gits who used to live close to one another in our student days in Leeds. Having come up to Scotland vis A65 and A7 the beautiful blocked out by lashing rain, roads formed flooded pools is so many places and at times it was like driving through a shallow river itself. A few hours later than expected we arrived at the house in Ettrickbridge whereby someone had turned on the central heating so the place was lovely and warm and a Selkirk Bannock waiting on the table for us. In fact despite being single glazed the house remained comfortably warm throughout our stay. I can only concur with other positive reports on the place being cozy, welcoming and deceptively big. Fortunately for us the foul weather was abroad whilst we were inside and brightened up when we were out and about. Plenty of lovely walks to build a thirst and the only pub in Ettrickbridge is just that bit too far to walk - a nice place serving Doombar ... er ... Cornish beer. Food and drink not cheap but the beer was well kept and the portions substantial. The single bathroom/toilet was perhaps the biggest minus for us but then six elderly adults is not the usual guest demographic I guess. Anyway overall thoroughly recommended!

A nice escape, lots of hares to see and a peaceful and comfortable night sleep guaranteed

Both the cottage and location were lovely, just as described/pictured. Great communication from our host and helpful directions to get there. The surrounding countryside was beautiful and the short walk down to the river allowed for some lovely wild swimming. I'd definitely stay here again.

It is very nice house. My son love here.

If you are looking for a quiet secluded location, this is the place. The place is rustic (and all you associate with that)! And is perfect for a quiet relaxing stay Slept very well here and lovely views

Great location for quiet country walks in the scenic Borders. Also good to get to Edinburgh for the day. We used the railway from Tweedbank - kids under 15 go free so that was good value with our three. Easy to use wood burning fire, pleasant garden to sit in. Very quiet.

The cottage was just perfect for 4 (although can sleep more) people. The log fire had the entire place roasting warm in not time, and the kitchen contained more than you'd ever need for a short break. The views out the window were just idillic, and a short 2 mile walk into Ancrum to the Ancrum Cross Keys highly recommended.

Lovely cottage in a very beautiful part of the world. The cottage had all the amenities you could need! The wood burning stove made for most of my entertainment as I finally learnt how to maintain a fire for more than 20 minutes! Fully stocked kitchen, TV and Internet if you can't get away from them! Comfortable bed, I Highly recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a relaxing trip away! Thanks David!

Beautiful location, very friendly neighbours. We loved the fire, the garden and the surrounding areas especially the wonderful pub in Ancrum. Great to have some quiet time surrounded by beautiful nature.

Dora is a caring and and warm host! Everything was really cosy and clean. As well as the breakfast was amazing. We would go there anytime again. Furthermore the design of the house is a must see!

Dora is a wonderful host, very welcoming and kind, and gave us lots of good advice about the country. We would definitely recommend staying with her ! The area is lovely and full of things to visit.

Dora gave us a warm welcome and made our stay memorable. We were able to feel at home and our room was delightful. Thoroughly reccommend the Hobbit House.

Dora is a wonderful host. Charming and friendly. The house is a gem, and the clever architecture does not get in the way of using the facilities. The house is spotless and our room was quiet and comfortable, with a loo right next to the bedroom door. If you get a chance to stay here you should jump at it.

Great property and excellent hostess made this a very enjoyable stay. No issues whatsoever. Would have no hesitation at all staying again if in the area.

Dora's place is unique, charming and quirky. Dora herself is welcoming and very helpful. Her place is a good choice for exploring the Scottish Borders.

We spent a great two days here. Dora was warm, welcoming and helpful and we felt very much at home. The room was clean and comfortable, and this was a great base for exploring the borders!

Dora is a very friendly & warmth host. Her house is very clean & cozy.

This was a very happy find. Made the reservation because I was helping family members with sourcing accommodation for St. Cuthberts Walk. Stacey very friendly and made everything great. Thanks to Stacey.

Fantastic host, great communication throughout. It is a lovely comfy barn, with a shop very close by. Although Stacey ensured we had milk, coffee, tea, biscuits and rolls, butter to enjoy on our arrival. Would recommend and we will be back :)

Loved that it was quiet and friendly only 4 mile north of jedbrough Stacey and Richard are very helpful and just a message away help us a lot can't thank them enough

Excellent value for money, well equipped and right next to a shop and a pub serving great food. Lots of tourist attractions a short drive away. This part of the world is so pretty, and the people are so friendly. Nice quiet little place.

St. Cuthbert's Barn is very charming and cozy. Stacey made it easy for a late check in and her communication and directions were perfect. Everyone that passed by is this morning greeted us - wish we could have stayed to explore- many interesting things to see. Great breakfast at the Pantry.

Excellent little place - really handy for a stopover as it's just off the A68 but in a very quiet location. Clean, comfortable, characterful. All the goodies - bread, milk, cookies, chocolate - made me feel very well looked after! Would definitely recommend.

Great little place for a stop on our way home - really friendly host. Stacey made it easy check in and her communication and directions were perfect. Excellent value for money.

Fantastic quaint Barn,ideal for a stopover,lovely and clean and lots of nice touches from the owner,(bread and milk and chocolate!) Had a fab meal in the Cross Keys Pub,highly recommended and everyone you come across including the lady from the shop couldnt be nicer. Thanks Again

Great stay in Hawick. Great central location and seconds away from the shops/restaurants. Clean modern flat with a friendly host! Thanks!

Frances & Ray enjoyed their stay in your place. It was perfectly located for their needs and very homely. They will stay again on their next visit to Hawick.

Katie's place is stunning! Perfect if you want a country getaway in a beautiful castle :) Thanks for having us!

What a remarkable two days. This was an amazing stay, one my son and I won't forget in a hurry. Let's break down why. Starting with the place and location. ITS OFF THE HOOK. ITS A SCOTTISH CASTLE IN PLENTY OF LAND WITH BAGS OF HISTORY AND BEAUTIFUL VIEWS AND THE STANDARD OF YOUR ACCOMMODATION IS AMAZING. YOU GET YOUR OWN LOUNGE IF YOU WANT IT. Hopefully that's enough. You get the idea. It's bloomin' marvellous. Now let's get onto to Katie and her wonderful family. What hosts!! How welcome were we made to feel? Extremely. My son and I felt like we'd gone to stay with friends we'd known for ages. Relaxed. Down to earth. Welcoming. Fun. Funny. Engaging. I have already told everyone I know about them and this lovely place. Katie and crew - thank you!!!

Wedderlie House is a really stunning home set in the beautifully scenic Scottish Borders. If it's a secluded retreat you're after then this is your (URL HIDDEN) so peaceful and serene with nothing more than the birdsong to break the silence! Katie is a fantastic host, she couldn't do enough for us, taking us to see the newborn foals and making us numerous cups of tea! I really can't speak highly enough of Wedderlie House and thoroughly recommend it to anyone!

Katie is a welcoming hostess who went out of her way to make us comfortable in her idyllic home. Beautiful grounds in a lovely and remote situation. Very quiet and peaceful.

Well what can I say ! we had the most amazing weekend ! Katie and her family made us feel very welcome and at home. I would recommend her to everyone if you are planning a trip to Scotland etc. from the moment we stepped foot through the door Katie and her family made us feel relaxed and at home. Wish we could have stayed for longer !! even managed to come back with an addition to our horsey family !!!!! Thank you Katie, Marcus, Myles, Max & Claudia xxxxx

Likeable castle-like house - likeable spot - most likeable Katie. We like it all :-)

Lovely, remote and picturesque castle in the Scottish Borders. Very comfortable and with a very kind and welcoming host. Perfect for a quick weekend get-away or even a longer trip.

Katie was a wonderful host! Great comms before and during our stay. She was very flexible around arrival time (my schedule was fluid, so that was a great help) and made us feel at home on arrival. We looked to seeing Katie and her family at the beginning and the end of each day. Couldn't have asked for a better host!

Fantastic accommodation and beautiful surroundings. Had a great vacation!

Well equiped & romantic hideaway in fabulous location. fabulous!

This is a magical place. Perfect for a romantic occasion but also homey and fun in the country for a small family. Extremely comfortably appointed and "curated" with historical information.

Absolutely lovely inside and out. The Tower was very well equipped and exactly the "something different" we were hoping for. Beautiful, tranquil surroundings - just sorry we couldn't stay longer.

The tower is truly a magical place. It has been beautifully restored. My family and I had an amazing time there. The location is ideal and we loved Peebles.

Very impressive and comfortable. Best broadband speed I have ever had! Warm and cosy.

The perfect romantic getaway!

We came for a few days' honeymoon and absolutely loved it. Barns Tower is done out so wonderfully, is cosy and just so unique! Lovely surroundings, and only a short drive from Glentress forest - perfect for us to get our biking fix in! The big open fires were wonderful, and the whole tower is so well equipped with everything you could need! Thank you, we loved it.

Gorgeous little apartment. Very comfortable and well equipped. Stove lit for our arrival. Good food at local pub just a few doors down.

We spent two nights in this lovely flat. It is comfortable, well decorated and very clean. Location is excellent for exploring the Scotish Borders. Amanda is an amazing host.

A lovely little place in a small village, which worked perfectly for our journey from Edinburgh down south. The place is clean, comfortable and easily accessed- a perfect solution for our one night stay, but would work just as well if you are staying for longer periods, plus there is a superb collection of books if you forgot your reading material at home!

Charming and sweet flat. Everything supplied that was required. Amanda game me a warm welcome and explained everything so well. Would love to stay again

Cosy, clean, warm welcome, and private. Thanks Amanda.

Despite only being a stopover Amanda was most helpful and made us very welcome. We had a good night's rest after a long day and it was most welcoming. Would recommend this place to anyone.

Utterly charming cottage in the country with a wonderful garden and incredibly generous and helpful hostess. Highly recommended and will be sure to visit again soon!

A beautiful flat to stay in, with access to a beautiful garden; our host Amanda, was really thoughtful, there were some basic meal components, bread, milk and tea and coffee ready for when we arrived. Everything we needed was there. A lovely quiet village with a shop and a pub, in lovely Borders countryside.

Great place and fantastic host. Can't recommend highly enough!

Amazing find! Super quiet and clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. Nicola even left us makings for breakfast. Highly recommend; would stay again. Thanks for the hospitality

Amazing view. Clean and quiet. Would recommend.

This is a wonderfull location all bedrooms wonderfully decorated bed so comfortable house was imaculatley clean wonderfull bathroom luxury bath. Breakfast great we went for the Scottish breakfast.

Lovely home in a quiet location with fantastic views. Nicola was a perfect host, very welcoming and helpful.

Wonderful place, beatifeul house and greath hospitality.

Amazing house, view and experience

Lovely cottage in a beautiful place

This is a lovely cottage in a quiet very well kept village. It was clean and well equipped, we enjoyed our stay. Kevan and Sheila were away but entry was fine and they left lots of information about the house and the locality.

This is a little gem! Clean, well kept and in a beautiful spot. Had a wonderful time.

This place is a little gem in the boarders! The cottage was splendid, comfy, peaceful and pretty. Everything we needed for our stay was there. Comfy bed, fully equipped kitchen and nice warm shower. We come to the area to see the Tour of Britain and we got a lot more out of it than that. The countryside at this time of year is breathtaking with all the heather on the hills. Totally romantic getaway. I would highly recommend to anybody in need of a peaceful break.

Fabulous location views from house are amazing would recommend this little gem of a place if you want peace and tranquillity get away from it all well done to host's Kevan & Sheila.

Fantastic place, which was just perfect. Kevan and Sheila were excellent hosts, accommodating our late check in, and extremely helpful. Beautiful place, and amazing scenery. 10/10 will be back.

This is a very nice cottage in a quiet and small village, near a golfcourse. The environment and views are great. It was clean, good beds and completely equipped, we enjoyed our stay. Kevan and Sheila were away but entry was fine and communication was very good.

Peace and quiet in beautiful area. Well equipped cottage. Would highly recommend.

What a place and what wonderful, wonderful hosts. The chalet is gorgeous, just perfect, beautifully decorated and laid out and with lovely views. Mary and Andy are tremendous hosts even sorting out or car (which broke down), giving us lifts and sorting out a local garage to mend it. Would heartily recommend to explore the Borders or just for a romantic weekend away.

Loved every minute of our stay, this place was just what we were looking for. Tranquil setting, clean and tidy accommodation, wonderful hosts. We will be back!

Hilltop cottage is just as advertised. The cottage is spotless and a great wee place for a quiet getaway. Mary responded quickly to messages. We enjoyed our day exploring surrounding fields and forests and in the evening, we walked into Lilliesleaf for dinner. We came prepared with all the food supplies we needed so did not need to venture into Selkirk. Highly recommended.

Very friendly hosts, great communication and a lovely little house surrounded by grassland and many sheep.

We highly recommend Hilltop Cottage as a quiet rural getaway location. We appreciated the well stocked bird feeders that attracted a great variety of birds.

Very peaceful. Comfortable bed, nice hot shower. Be aware you have to drive to get meals/food, although it doesn't take long to get to Selkirk/Melrose/Hawick. I think it would be good to have a map of the area showing how all the little roads connect up, it could be in a frame on the wall.

Great little cottage. Very quiet spot, genuinely only the noise of the birds. Excellent countryside views from the cottage and about 15 mins to good-sized shops. Would recommend staying here.

Ideal escape!

Perfect house and the area If you are looking for peace

Ben's place is really cosy and sweet - situated in a quiet tiny village in the borders. Ben was very helpful in every regard - I would recommend his place as a great getaway from the city. As Ben said - don't forget to go shopping first - as there is no shop or pub in the village. The river runs close to the cottage - perfect for BBQs and the dog absolutely loved it. The rugged scenery is stunning. Expect weather!

Cute cottage with everything you need. I stayed while working in Duns, so was only there for a short time, but enjoyed my stay. Ben communicated really well and it was easy to find :)

The cottage was lovely, very quiet setting beautiful scenery especially with the Autumn colours. Good facilities in cottage very comfortable beds and nice and clean with homly feel.

Lovely cottage out in the sticks, great communicative host. Would highly recommend if your wanting a relaxing break away.

A great value stay in a gorgeous cottage. Spacious and well equipped, we had everything we needed for a fantastic trip. Ben was a wonderful host. Would definitely come again!

Ben provides a lovely home, welcome treats were much appreciated :) The cottage is superb and fitted myself, two teenagers and large dog to a treat. Longformacus has to be one of the quietest places I've ever stayed perfect retreat from modern life, no phone signal so thanks Ben for the really good Wi-Fi :). The location is great for peace & quiet and we used it as a base for trips to Edinburgh and the N.East coast of England. Never know we may return :)

A perfect cottage in a beautiful location. Exactly what is desired on a relaxing break away from the big city. Thank you Ben for the incredibly helpful guide to the area, it really improved our stay.

Lovely place and great value.

Lovely central accommodation

Lovely quirky little apartment in the centre of Hawick. Well placed to get around, everything is in walking distance and the area is quite quiet. Apartment itself is lovely and very much of its age, with sloping floors and full of character. It was nice to sit at the living room window and watch the town go by. Plenty of parking nearby for free. A flight of spiral stairs from the street to the apartment door. Very comfortable sofa. A really lovely little flat. Would be wary of there being any more than 3 adults in the apartment, as it is very cosy, and prhaps not ideal for anymore than 3, or children, unless literally only sleeping in it. Crockery available for 4. Do bring your own towels.

Avoid. There had been a leak in the kitchen and there was mould on the walls and plaster on the bench and floor and an unpleasant smell. There wasn't anything in the kitchen, no sponges or dustpan and brush so I couldn't even clean it up. The windows are so inadequate for the location. The nightlife kept us awake in to the early morning. Outer door is unlocked at all times and inner door feel inadequate. We didn't feel safe. No parking close by Host was unreachable as soon as we arrived and hasn't responded to any of my messages.

Great little place, in a good location. Good value too!

Cheap and basic which is fine and acceptable for the rate. Location is great, in centre of town and parking close by. Damp problem in kitchen needs addressing though which let's the flat down.

Apt was good but basic, at the heart of Hawick a good base for our walking and cycling excursions.

Two of us stayed at the flat. It is centrally located in Hawick so ideal for visiting the borders, value for money. There is parking close by.

My stay at Elaine's completely surpassed my expectations. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! She is kind, friendly and supremely accommodating and her home is really lovely, surrounded by beautiful landscape. I couldn't recommend this place more highly!

Really lovely house and host - super clean and spacious and Elaine was extremely kind, friendly and helpful. Also the village is lovely with great views. Very highly recommended!

Elaine is a lovely host so nice so precise, descet and welcoming. She is a very interesting person and we had a very nice conversations with her. We were really happy to stay in her house which is very clean, decorated with a lot of taste, comfortable, located in a beautiful scottish landscape. Our stay short was like a dream : everything was perfect! If we could, we would put 6 stars for Eil

Elaine is very friendly, kind and accommodating. Her house is very lovely, as was the room. We really enjoyed our stay.

A lovely converted barn. The rooms are very clean, the barthroom is spacious and modern and you can make yourself a cup of tea whenever you like. Elaine made us very tasty packed lunches and we were very welcome in her home.

An amazing little place to stop, right in the middle of Melrose, yet still a peaceful spot. A very clean and well decorated first floor flat with National Trust gardens out of the kitchen window (free to enter). Many things to do in Melrose, free parking and the Eildon Hills very close by which provide excellent views from the top. The host, Caroline, was very easy to contact.

We had a nice stay in Melrose. Our home was clean and calm, only the WiFi was brocken down for our stay. The arrive and communication was easy and perfect and we thank Caroline for her tips, that she gaves us for the evening and the breakfast!

Wonderful apartment. Cosy, comfortable and close to all amenities. Caroline and her team were fantastic. Highly recommend.

Wow what a fantastic flat, Caroline place has everything, wonderful views, comfortable bed and it was so peaceful, i would highly recommend it :-)

Absolutely great apartment! It had everything, a nice bedroom, a living area and a good equipped kitchen. The view to the abbey was amazing! The village was quiet and had a good location to visit the neighborhood.

Lovely cottage in great location and excellent value for money. We will definitely be back

Nice apartment and a great host!!

Fabulous accommodation in a wonderful location Melrose abbey on one side, beautiful gardens on the other and centrally located in Melrose. The property has a wonderful period feel and features complete with modern appliances. Parking directly opposite is very cheap and buses leave from the car park to many local and interesting destinations.Hostess was friendly and welcoming.we will be back thank you

Barbara's place in Hawick has good and bad points. It is central in a fascinating town and suitable for those travelling light. The new kitchen is well stocked with utensils and cleaners, the place was clean and the double bed comfortable. Parking is on the one way street before the place, take your chances or go around again or a few hundred meters further on at a large free parking place. Wifi is available over the road at a cafe - when it is open. The third bed is a saggy fold up bed, better to put the mattress on the floor. The place is accurately described as on the second floor but beware the stairs are worn, narrow and steep, difficult with heavy luggage and those unfit or unsteady on their feet. Make sure you get good directions a few days before arrival for finding the place, parking, heating and rubbish disposal. A good budget venue for the young and fit travelling light.

The host canceled this reservation 3 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

This flat in Hawick was amazing, I want to live here! Insanely great value, Barbara wasn't on-site but was extremely helpful with assisting us in getting in. Perfect location, scenic, charming, fantastic. I will be back, you can count on it! Thanks Barbara!

First night no heating or hot water. Took 24 hours to get the boiler sorted. The stairs are treacherous and the whole stair well was smelly. The place is sparsely furnished and uncomfortable.

A nice basic, little flat in a beautiful and quite area. There was a little problem with the boiler which was sorted fairly quickly so we didn't have to have cold showers for our whole stay.

Basic, central location, host absent

The host canceled this reservation 9 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Lovely apartment right in the center of town. Nice and warm with a very comfortable bed. Thank you for hosting us.
