About this cottage rental
The Granary is located at Dingleton Mains Farm, two minutes drive from Melrose's beautiful market square and historic town centre.
The cottage is particularly suited for families, couples (10% discount available for two person occupancy) and large groups (we have 6 other holiday cottages on the same site). If you like walking, you will love the fabulous walks from the doorstep. The three peaks of the Eildon hills, right behind the holiday cottages, are an iconic landmark in the area and a good challenge for keen walkers and adventurers. Our holiday cottages are situated on a 2 acre site with an orchard, woods and open garden areas with picnic tables and BBQs. We are accessed via a private road with no passing traffic so children can play safely and dogs can be walked off the lead.
The Granary welcomes small, clean, well behaved dogs too but as it is all carpeted it isn't suitable for larger long haired breeds (dogs must be over 1 year old, max 1 small dog, £20 charge per dog, please mention when booking).
Melrose has a unique mix of independent shops and a superb eateries. For guests wanting to cook, there's a great butcher, two bakers, a greengrocer and a delicatessen all offering fantastic local produce. Or if you prefer a bit more convenience there's also a good Co-op supermarket in Melrose or several large supermarkets in Galashiels, around 5 miles away. For eating out there are several superb restaurants and cafes in Melrose and there's also several takeaway options too that will deliver delicious food to the holiday cottage. We have a list of recommended eateries in our cottage welcome folders to help guests find the best places.
The Granary has an interesting history - it used to be part of a Victorian mill where grain from the surrounding farms was ground to make flour and animal feed. All this was driven by an underground water wheel which is still here today! In the 1990's the mill was converted to provide the accommodation that you see now, hence the name, The Granary. The accommodation is all on the first floor, accessed via a private staircase.
The cottage has two bedrooms - one has a super-king size double bed and the other has two single beds. All beds have deep, comfortable mattresses and cosy all seasons duvets and pillows made from luxury micro-fibre soft as down, there's no feather bedding. There's room to sleep an additional person on a z-bed either in the living area or in one of the bedrooms (small additional charge).
There is a separate bathroom with a bath and an over-bath shower
The living room has an open plan kitchen / dining / sitting room. There is a large window in the sitting area which is a great place to watch the local wildlife visiting the bird feeder outside which includes a large variety of garden birds and even the occasional squirrel!
The kitchen is fully equipped and has an oven, electric hob, dishwasher, microwave, and refrigerator with small freezer compartment. The crockery is high quality Denby. There is a shared laundry facility which has a washing machine, a tumble dryer and a large chest freezer if you need extra space for any other frozen food such as ice creams. This room also serves as an information hub with pin boards and a leaflet rack giving lots of information on the best local attractions.
The cottage is kept cosy at all times by our eco-friendly biomass heating system which is on 24 hours a day with temperature control in the cottage.
Other equipment in the cottage includes: 43″ smart TV, iron and ironing board, wooden clothes hangers, toaster, kettle, vacuum cleaner, knife block, hair drier, torch, dustpan and brush.
Bed linen and fluffy white towels provided.
