GARDEN COTTAGE - peaceful rural cottage in Scottish countryside

A quintessential country cottage, this very lovely property rests gently on the edge of the original walled garden on the Teviot Bank Estate amidst glorious scenery.
For those craving a little of the good life, this pretty cottage will hit the right note for fishing, walking, and cycling pursuits along tranquil river valleys or simply cosying-up with a good book in front of the dancing flames of a real fire. When a lazy lunch beckons, the charming village pub is just a mile from the door.

The beauty of this cottage is the peaceful country setting yet is ideal for sightseeing and exploring the wonderful attractions of the area. Warm and inviting, the cottage benefits from an open plan sitting room with wood burner and dining space leading to a bright, sunny kitchen, while a separate sitting room adds a dash of Nordic elegance for relaxed socialising or just a little time-out.

The bathroom on the ground floor has a plentiful supply of hot water whilst upstairs, two double bedrooms (one double, one twin) have delightful combed ceilings and scenic views out towards Ruberslaw Hill. Crisp linens from the White Company, gorgeous furnishing fabrics from Scottish design company Inchyra, along with sumptuous goose down duvets and pillows should help to ease you into a restful sleep.

The front of the cottage looks out over arable land leading down to the River Teviot while a pretty garden to the rear is an idyllic spot for sunshine days watching the comings and goings of wandering wildlife passing on by.

Lovely cottage in a beautiful area

The cottage was as described and pictured except that the garden was much better than expected. By “large garden” read huge! The children loved it! The walled grass area was great for frisbees and the external garden was good for exploring. As well as this is the patio garden which is included in the pictures. The cottage itself was very clean with really luxurious bedding and towels. There are a lot of small thoughtful touches like plenty of hooks for coats and a porch which took all the boots so we could keep the cottage clean and nice to pad around in bare feet. There are plenty of leaflets and an OS map to help you explore, plus DVDs and a selection of magazines to help you relax. The bathroom is down stairs so expect trips up and down during the night and with the gabled ceilings in the bedrooms, there were a few bumped heads until we got used to it. There's a nice walk along the river into Denholm (2km approx) and a local cycle route (leaflet in the cottage) goes past the door so we were able to do that from the cottage. We loved exploring Fatlips castle (amazing views) then having lunch at Born in the Borders (amazing food and grass sledging!) The whole area is lovely and in a week we barely scratched the surface. Lovely comfy property in a beautiful area - I’d definitely visit again.
