A light and cosy cottage in a stunning setting with power and heating provided by solar panels, water from a spring and natural interiors

The last couple of miles are beautifully scenic with views overlooking the border hills south of Hawick including Rubers Law and the Cheviots. The cabin sits in a sheltered position on the owners' Croft (cleverly designed not to ensure privacy)  and all you'll hear when you step out of the car is a cacophony of birdsong. Inside is filled with light from the numerous windows and glazed doors onto the wrap-around decking.

The open plan kitchen and living area has a log-burner at its heart and on rainy days you'll feel lovely and warm sitting in here with a book or maps to plan your next outing. The mezzanine master bedroom has a handmade bed, natural wool duvet and pillows and lovely views for your morning cup of tea. There's a bunk room downstairs for children - even big ones.

Find handmade soaps in the bathroom, basics for cooking in the cupboards and a barbecue out on the decking facing wildlife ponds and paddocks.

Local points of interest from David & Laura Addison:

Puntos de interés sobre la región de
David & Laura Addison:

  • Excellent bird watching, wildlife and wild flowers can be viewed over the pond through the cottage windows. Wild birds, deer, hares, badger and owls are frequent visitors to the Croft.
  • Fabulous walks, cycling and Border views from the door in every direction. Borders Abbey Way is 1/4 mile from Fiddle Hill, this can join up with St. Cuthberts Way, taking you all the way to Lindisfarne. Ebikes are available to help explore further afield
  • Seeking a culture fix? Take a day trip to Abbotsford House, home of Sir Walter Scott, with lovely gardens. Ruined abbeys in Melrose, Kelso and Jedburgh. Distillery, Cashmere mills and the Textile Towerhouse Museum in Hawick, just 2 miles down the hill.
  • Mid way between 7 Stanes mountain biking at Glentres near Innerleithen and Newcastleton. Great local road cycling, for example through the Ettrick and Yarrow Valleys. Ebikes are available for guests use.
  • Horse racing and Common Ridings in all the local towns throughout the summer season. Go golfing on one of the many Border golf courses, take a stroll through Hawick's beautiful Wilton Lodge Park, or try some wild swimming just 4 mins walk from the cottage.
  • Lots of great hills to climb - Rubbislaw, the Eildons and many more. A dog walkers paradise, come rain or shine.
