The Yetholm Hayloft - Self-catering in Scottish Borders
Swan House, Town Yetholm, Kelso, TD5 8RG, Scottish Borders
Scotland,
Reino Unido
Love and care have been lavished on this bolthole with plenty of attention given to the little details: homemade bread and other breakfast goodies, games, cookery books, an iPod full of tunes. Cook a delicious meal in the neat kitchen, throw some logs on the fire, and take a long soak in the bedroom roll top tub.
You're in a small, thriving village with a community shop and a twice-weekly pop up café in the village hall - perfect for a slice of homemade cake after a long ramble. The walking all around is fantastic: hop on the Pennine Way; hike the craggy hillsides, forests and heather-strewn fields of St Cuthbert’s Way and the Cheviots that pass through Northumberland National Park; visit the market town of Kelso on the banks of the river Tweed.
With your own entrance, up a small lane, you'll feel nicely private. Sip your coffee in the outdoor seating spot to plan your day: perhaps a trip to Holy Island then back for a pint in one of two pubs.

Local points of interest from Steve & Jane Mitchell:
Puntos de interés sobre la región de
Steve & Jane Mitchell:
- Head out on St Cuthbert's Way through the village and up to the National Park - it weaves through forest, meadows, over hills to the little town of Wooler, then over to Lindisfarne. Start in Melrose and be with us at the end of the 2nd day.
- Kelso is a sweet little market town, about a 15-minute drive (or bus ride) away, for cafés, delis, independents, bakeries, pubs, lovely shops and the beautiful Tweed River meandering through. Watch the world go by with a homemade gelato on the square...
- Bamburgh is a pretty little village on the coast, set around the cricket green, and famous for the magnificent castle - only a 50-min drive away. Lindisfarne is also a must-see on Holy Island - the walled Gertrude Jekyll garden is wonderful.
- For a sandy day out head to Coldingham, about 50 mins by car - a beautiful little sandy bay on the east coast. Or a little further north and you'll reach Edinburgh - there's a brilliant antiques place at Drum Farm just south of the city.
- Yetholm is home to 2 pubs - The Border (in Kirk Yetholm) and The Plough (opposite), each with a sunny terrace looking out onto the village greens. Lovely for a crisp local ale after striding through the hills.
- Floors Castle in Kelso - the largest inhabited house in Scotland - is a gorgeous day out. Wander around their walled gardens, through the woodlands, hop on the cycle trail. Or visit the delightful the Monteviot House & Gardens, a 25-min drive away.
