The 200 acres of glorious parkland surrounding Mellerstain House, one of Scotland’s grandest stately homes, designed and built by William and Robert Adam, provide a wonderful setting for these two delightful cottages (S4568 and S4569). Visitors are welcome to roam the grounds including the fabulous Italian-style terraced gardens which command panoramic views over the lake to the distant Cheviot Hills. The scenic and historic attractions of the Border country are all close at hand and the beaches of Berwick and Holy Island are also easily accessible.

Adjoining the Clock House is Courtyard Cottage, ref S4569, which has also been lovingly converted to a high standard and boasts three en-suite bedrooms. The courtyard coffee shop serves delicious home cooking on ‘house open’ days - and special occasions, large and small can be catered for by arrangement in the state rooms of Mellerstain House. Shop and pub 7 miles.. Note: The Clock House and Courtyard Cottage can be interlinked to offer accommodation to sleep up to 10 guests..

Stately Home fun!
The cottage is in a courtyard of a small stately home but it is really quiet and peaceful. We saw a deer in the grounds at dusk and were hoping to see otter or badgers (there were footprints). Plenty of swans and even nesting cormorants in the trees. The property has everything you need ... plenty of kitchen equipment if you wish to cook in, warm and cosy and a lovely area to visit.

Lovely location.
Over all it was very good , with a couple of not very important issues. On arriving we had no way of knowing where the key would be. The shower in one room was broken. This was rectified by the Housekeeper.

We enjoyed our time at the cottage and this was our second visit to Mellerstain, the first visit being to the Clock House cottage. The cottage was very comfortable despite Covid changes. The only downside for the ladies in the party was using the induction hob which they did Not enjoy. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo
