This beautiful stone-built property from the late 1800s is set in a lovely rural location. It is less than 10 miles to a selection of local beaches along the beautiful Berwickshire coast. The enclosed garden is ideal for children or pets and the surrounding countryside offers some great walking and cycling routes. There are many local attractions within a 10-mile drive including Berwick Castle, Norham Castle and Paxton House where you can take a tour of the gardens.

Set in a quiet country lane, this is the perfect base for a family holiday or a long weekend. The welcoming and relaxed south-facing cottage is a superb self-catering option.

Entering the house, you will find a cosy lounge with ample space for the whole family; enjoy an evening in front of the ornate wood burner. The kitchen has clear views out into the enclosed garden so the kids can feel independent while playing safely. You will also find the dining room with a feature fireplace is a great place to catch up after a day exploring. The bathroom is conveniently on the ground floor too, so you can clean off the mud and sand from a day well spent exploring the great outdoors.

On the first floor, there are two light and spacious bedrooms with views of rolling farmland and trees. The tranquil location makes it perfect for stargazing or just a peaceful night’s rest.

Outside is an enclosed private mature garden with furniture and BBQ. Local free-range eggs can be purchased across the road from the house.
