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.

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!
We had an excellent stay at Barns Bothy and would recommend anyone to stay there.The place is immaculate with everything you need and more at your fingertips. You really do feel at home when you are there with lots of information provided with regards to where you are and what is available to you nearby.
Great little place in an amazing location. Can't wait to go back

Small, comfortable self-contained cottage in the beautiful Tweed Valley
The cottage is small but fine for two people. The accommodation is comfortable and the galley kitchen has everything you need.Nespresso machine much appreciated. A few miles outside Peebles which has a good selection of independent shops and eating places. Good bus connections to Edinburgh. Great walking country.

Lovely little Bolthole in beautiful countryside
This is our go to spot for visiting family in Peebles. We have stayed in Barnes Library which is great if another couple is joining you. We opted for Barnes Bothy as it was just the two of us this trip. It did not disappoint. Cosy little place and we were provided with a welcome assortment of supplies on arrival. Although it is out of the town, it is not that far (10mins) and the reward is well kept garden, lovely views and walking opportunities. Looking forward to a winter visit and the log burner !

I love renovating old buildings and welcoming guests to stay and enjoy them. Scotland is an amazing country, and my corner of it, here in the Scottish Borders, is as romantic and beautiful as anywhere.
Why they chose this property
Barns Bothy, is a haven of comfort for two, where the bed has sky views should you wish to see the stars, and the log burning stove is heaven to cosy up in front of in chillier times. The bathroom is large and warm and the galley Kitchen is well equipped for cooking up a fine dinner.
