Magical place
Lovely spacious well-heated house in beautiful countryside. We had a week of snowy weather which was heavenly. Edward, the owner was extremely helpful. He towed out some cars which got stuck in the car park by the house, provided lots of logs, replaced the washing machine which had problems and was generally a great help. This is a house for people who like old books and furnishings...don't go there if you want modern posh.

Excellent property in an excellent location with a very French chateau feel
We had an amazing time in this beautiful old 18th century property - it felt very much like a French chateau with its faded elegance, charm and homely living. The house is spacious and set in beautiful surroundings with wild deer and horses roaming in the fields and a myriad of birds roosting and populating the skies. The fireplace was cosy, the outside space and hot tub inviting and the large comfortable sofas were great for curling up in and reading or watching TV. There is also a grand piano which we made full use of . Edward was a perfect host and made us feel at ease and right at home straight from the start ! We also had use of a kayak and boat on the nearby loch and the walk around the loch is very pretty. There are some great towns to explore nearby such as Kelso, Jedburgh, Alnwick and Berwick upon Tweed. We would certainly stay here again and would highly recommend it!

We had a fantastic stay at Lochside garden house.
We had a fantastic stay at Lochside garden house. The house is needing some TLC but it has lots of character, plenty of space and everything we needed for a large group for a long weekend. The owner was very welcoming and helpful. It’s a very tranquil setting and the grounds were beautiful. The kids loves feeding the horses and pigs, and playing on the trampoline and swing. The adults loved the hot tub. Some nice walks around the farm. Would definitely book again. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo
