Cosy wee cottage - exactly what we were after. Had everything we needed, was nicely decorated and clean and tidy.
The only minor downside was the shower space.

perfect location for Melrose and the Borders and only 5 mins from station for a train to Edinburgh. Really liked the multiple crockery and cutlery - so often accomodation for 2 only has 2 of everything
we found the parking space very tight but parked on the main road (2mins away) Step down from bathroom to toilet a little worrying in the middle of the night (not a lot can do about it!)

Beautiful and comfortable cottage with good parking and great heating
TV in lounge was very small - would make it a perfect cottage if there was a TV mounted on wall in bedroom

A great cosy wee cottage, that really had all amenities catered for. Super comfy bed, comfortable sofa and perfectly equipped small kitchen. Tempest tap brewery only 5 mins walk up the road, so great to head out to if you like a decent beer! Lovely quiet village location, with a more than pleasant walk along the riverside into Melrose for a nice breakfast.
Hot water pressure is extremely low, but doesn’t cause an issue when there’s a decent electric shower to use.

Small cottage in an ideal position for getting into Melrose, visiting local attractions and doing local walks.
The little table in the front was ideal for sitting out in the early evening.
All very good though a clock radio in the bedroom would have been a bonus!

It was clean, well furnished and had everything we could need. Perfect for the Borders Book Festival- we left the car in it's parking place at the property- only a 20 minute walk into Melrose.
Comfortable bed, decent shower, well equipped kitchen and parking space- what more could you want except being able to take my two little well behaved dogs there.

it was absolutely spotless, cosy and comfortable. the location was lovely too.
We travel a lot and were surprised to find that there was no tea towels to dry dishes and also that there was no milk in the fridge. A little welcome pack would have perfected our stay.

This was an amazing place to stay. We walked in and thought WOW, it was a fantastic way to end our 3month long holiday in Scotland. Also in such a small street to have a carparking space was great. We felt like we were at home but better. We also spoke to the neighbour who told us of the history of the wee cottage. Explains why there is a post box at the fence. Was also nice that it has a small outdoor seating area. Just gorgeous.
There was nothing here to complain about

Lovely cottage, exceptionally clean and comfortable. Easy access/instructions, walking distance to the village, car parking available. Comfy bed and well appointed spaces.

A beautifully appointed cottage with very comfortable sofa and bed with good quality linen and soft furnishings. The private parking space across from the cottage was very handy and the road itself is really quiet. We had good weather, so the outside table and chairs were a nice touch. Julie was very helpful and we were able to check-in early, which was much appreciated.
The water pressure from the hot taps was low.

Super gemütliches kleines Cottage, sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Es ist wirklich alles da, was man braucht, perfekt eingerichtete Küche, Dusche UND Badewanne, kleiner Außensitzplatz. Alles war super sauber. In einem ruhigen dörflichen Ortsteil von Melrose gelegen, daher wunderbar ruhig, trotzdem ist man in 20 Minuten ins Zentrum gelaufen. Melrose mit der Abbey ist ein hübsches kleines Städtchen, ein guter Ausgangspunkt zur Erkundung der Borders. Hier wären wir gern noch ein bisschen länger geblieben! Vielen Dank an Simon und Julie
Alles war top!
