What our customers say about their holidays

  • Ben - Verified booking

    Our holiday at the Old Byre in Jedburgh was superb.

    I have given the highest ratings on all questions asked, not because it's easy & quick but because this is how much we enjoyed our time in the Old Byre. My wife, myself and our 20 month daughter had a ball. We were looking forward to it when we saw the photos. And this is what made us know we had booked the right place when we arrived - what you see on the photos is EXACTLY what you get on arrival. Many other places could learn from this fact. We were made to feel welcome from the get go - cheeky we arrival present on the table. On that - the hostess/manager couple are superb. Nothing is a hassle - even stupid requests from years truly on how to operate the wood burning stove (which is a beast in the very best sense of the word). Kirsty and Sandy just added to our enjoyment at the Byre all the more. I'm from the Borders (Peebles) so know the area well. Or so I thought. If you are into cycling there are simply magic wee routes around here - two of Simon Warren's top 100 cycling climbs of Scotland are just a few K's from your door, 1km in the case of one of them. I could go on - Jed has so much history dripping from it, all easily accessible even with a toddler in tow. Plenty of other lovely wee towns close by too for days out. Quick wee mention for the B6357 too. Petrol-heads or cyclists - do yourselves a favour - if you've not driven it or peddled it do it, it rocks almost as much as the Old Byre does. We will return to The Old Byre and cannae wait.

    The cottage was clean and cosy and met with basic requirements The bathroom was small but had plenty of hot water agood shower and a lovely deep bath It was situated within easy access to local places of interest and a pub,chip shop and co-op We did have a bit of problem finding it as was not signed in any way but locals were able to help There is no parking inside grounds of cottage but we always managed to get a space just outside We did not find the cottage dog friendly as dog wasn't allowed up on furniture and there was no outside area for dog to go Local to the cottage there is plenty of places to walk the dog but would have been good just to let dog out first thing in morning and last thing at night It clearly shows in photos and informs you in description of the slanted roof in bedroom This however did not stop us banging our heads After a few bumps you start to pay more attention

  • Karen - Verified booking

    We loved our stay at the Coach House.

    It was helped by some fantastic weather. It was a great base to explore the top of Northumberland and the Scottish Borders. The village of Churnside is a fabulous location with stunning views. The cottage was perfect for two and the courtyard is bathed in sunshine from early morning until about 4.30pm in the summer, so we had breakfast outside every morning. The cottage had everything we needed, albeit the kitchen was a little dark. As described, the on street parking was absolutely fine and not a problem. The mini co-op was a few doors down, and the village chip shop was no more than 50 yards away. All very convenient. Our hosts were lovely and very welcoming. We would also recommend Berwick Cycles for cycle hire if you are interested! A delightful stay in a delightful cottage.

  • Beverley - Verified booking

    Wow, the Byre exceeded our expectations as this is the best cottage we have stayed in.

    Beautifully decorated and furnished throughout which is fully equipped to meet every need for your holiday. Ample space for four people which offers an exceptional place to stay. Absolutely loved the spacious walk in shower rooms and walk in wardrobes. The thoughtful welcome pack was also very much appreciated and reflects the attention to detail provided by the property owners and hosts Sharon and Jim. The Byre cottage offers a welcome retreat with gorgeous views and is the best place to stay for exploring the Scottish Borders. Alternatively if you want a restful place where you can 'chill', relax and recharge your batteries, the Byre is the place to book. Would highly recommend and we will certainly return. Thank you to Sharon and Jim

  • Alan - Verified booking

    The Old Byre is a beautifully converted barn which the owners have done proud in it's development .

    Based on the outskirts of the border town of Jedburgh in the middle of very peaceful farm land with lots of wildlife, yet only 20mins walk into the town centre it is a ideal for the perfect quiet break. It is also a dog owners delight with lots of walks in the area. The cottage a spacious with plenty of light, furnished to an excellent standard throughout. We are both looking forward to coming back in 2021, on a final note the hosts Jim and Sharon left a most generous welcome pack and even some treats for our dog Jack, a great example of how to welcome old and new guests to a property and presents the "Goodwill" factor. 10/10 for the hosts and the property
