Please note that the bedrooms are quite small so although there are chest of drawers, there is no wardrobe. Also the twin room is quite cozy for two adults - although me and my friends have used it many a time!

With the River Dye babbling past the front door, it is ideal for romantic breaks or anniversaries, or as the perfect location for a more active hol with family or friends. Relax in front of the fire after a day of exploring or adventuring on and around the Scottish Borders: walking, cycling, canoeing, fishing and many other activities are easily available.
Vam tenir una estada realment estupenda en Rowanside, el que és un lloc preciós! Estimat molts, molts aspectes de la cabana - ben equipat amb mobles atractius, interessants i, sovint extravagant i decoració; estufa era fantàstic i ens va mantenir acollidor i va ser genial tenir l'habitació de dalt de vida - preciós i lleuger i brillant i es van divertir veient tots els ocells del jardí. La informació proporcionada per avançat era realment gran, Ben va fer tot tipus de recomanacions interessants - només lamentem la nostra visita va ser massa curta per prendre avantatge de tot! Una zona molt agradable per visitar amb una gran quantitat de coses que es pot fer dins d'un poca distància amb cotxe. Els gossos estaven contents amb un munt d'agradables passejades a prop. Teníem tot el que necessitàvem i ens va encantar. Sens dubte tornaria de nou donat l'oportunitat.
Corinne2017-02-27T00:00:00ZLa nostra família (2 adults i 2 nens) realment gaudim de la nostra estada de 4 nits a Longformacus. La casa es troba en una tranquil·la i pintoresca fila, amb vistes al riu a la part davantera i posterior dels jardins. A l'interior estava net i ordenat, amb totes les comoditats necessàries per a un viatge curt. Vam gaudir d'estar asseguts davant del foc ardent de registre, els jocs de taula i l'exploració de les fronteres escoceses. Gràcies Ben.

SuperhostThis idyllic cottage is set in a sheltered wooded spot close to a picturesque beach. Access to this seaside retreat is by steep steps and a footbridge across a small river. The magical spot is ideal for those wishing to escape the rigours of city life and spend a few days surrounded by nature, experiencing bygone times. The sounds are birdsong and the chords of nature, the seashore nearby and the varied wildlife, all bathed in the constantly changing Scottish light.
The cottage was built around the early 1700's and has recently been sensitively renovated internally, still retaining its old world, rustic charm. Although cosy and heated by two wood burning stoves with a gas powered cooker and hot water for the bath, there is no electricity in the cottage.
Lighting is by candles (supplied) and solar lights (supplied), which whilst creating a beautiful ambiance, means there is also no tv, no electric points, no fridge or electrical kitchen gadgets or washing machine.
The cottage is well stocked with the comforts and limitations of a bygone age and should be enjoyed as a complete digital detox, embracing the whole experience of escaping complex modern life for a few restful days.
This is a historic place, close to the old Dunglass Estate and adjacent to the old Edinburgh to London Road where James VI of Scotland crossed the nearby bridge on his journey south to become James I of England and Ireland with the Union of the Crown in 1603. There is the ruin of an ancient Collegiate church destroyed in the Reformation in the nearby Estate, and the area has connections with Scottish Art as the nearby town of Cockburnspath was the base of the Glasgow Boys in the late 1880's. Additionally the smuggler's haunt of Cove is a few miles along the coast to the south.

SuperhostPerfect for two, the Old Mill is a modern, cosy and eclectic conversion of 1700s water mill near the Royal Burgh of Lauder. This romantic bolthole is spacious and inviting - it's somewhere you can slow down and retreat from busy lives.

Edinburgh is just 40 mins away; most of the Scottish Borders is within 20 mins.
Dod Mill’s old, industrial water mill has undergone a thoroughly modern redesign as a rural escape for two. It’s unique and stylish interiors, thick stone walls, spacious living space and mezzanine bedroom with feature bath make this a wonderful place to retreat from day-to-day life.

Head upstairs to the mill’s original mezzanine floor, now converted to a bedroom. The super-comfy bed is king size and is made-up with anti-allergy bedding and pure Egyptian cotton linens. Have a long soak in the bedroom’s roll top bath, with Meraki spa-style products. The bath’s big enough to share, or enjoy on your own with a good book and a glass of wine. The en-suite shower room has a rainforest-style shower, soft-scented Meraki soap, shampoo and conditioner plenty of soft, fluffy towels.
There is an additional “downstairs loo”.
Head out the door by the woodburning stove and you’ll find an outdoor table and chairs and a small woodland garden area.

SuperhostThe Woodland Cabin is set on the edge of a forest near the beautiful small village of Abbey St Bathans, just 1 hour south of Edinburgh. Come and relax in the woods with a book or grab your hiking boots or bikes and explore the surrounding countryside. If you're feeling brave pack your swimming stuff for wild swimming in the Whitadder river. We're a 20 minute drive from the coast which has stunning cliff top walks and beautiful little bays and fishing villages.
The cabin has a large sitting/dining room with a wood burning stove which is very easy to light and quickly warms up the whole place. A lot of the internal wood like the floor, shelves and fittings are from trees from my father's forests which are processed in our sawmill which is 3 minutes down the road.
The kitchen is stocked with oil, salt, pepper, milk, sugar, tea, coffee etc. We can provide a simple breakfast on request of Muesli with dried fruit (from my mum's garden), home made bread with jam, butter, cheese etc for £5/per person. If it's the right time of year/available you'll be able to purchase fresh veg from my mum’s garden and local venison/pheasant/trout/eggs. The nearest supermarket is 7 miles away so please come with food if you're wanting to cook. There is also a BBQ set up outside. If you have a car there are plenty of pubs and restaurants in Duns and Berwick.
We will be doing short term lets through the autumn/winter, so get in touch if you would like to stay for longer.

Abbey St Bathans has a great community spirit, so if you have any questions just grab anyone and I'm sure they'll be happy to help.
Preciosa i acollidora cabana al costat del riu. Un lloc molt romàntic i relaxant al bosc. Em va encantar l'estufa de llenya, va fer que el lloc fos agradable i càlid. El llit al altell era fabulós. Totes les comoditats que podeu demanar. Definitivament tornarà a ser a l'estiu per gaudir de la terrassa al sol
Sharon2019-04-10T00:00:00ZDesplaçar-se i allotjar-se a Laure i relaxar-se, deixar que la tranquil·litat i l'encant senzill del lloc surti. És un autèntic lloc "allunyat", així que oblideu-vos dels mitjans de comunicació, els telèfons, la televisió i correu i simplement preneu-vos el temps escoltant el cant dels ocells, el brogit i la brisa dels arbres. Trobareu tots els conceptes bàsics que necessiteu i estaran nets i ordenats. I quan la temperatura cau al vespre i, finalment, estàs forçat a l'aire lliure, el cremador de fusta aviat us farà calent, perfectament complementat per una gota de whisky ...

Recently-built, wooden guest-house with river views, in the stunning, rural Scottish Borders. Enjoy dramatic scenery in Abbey St. Bathans, a hidden Borders gem, alongside beautiful local woodland walks and fresh air. Your centrally heated guest-house with private entrance, off-road parking and excellent Wifi awaits. Guaranteed to soothe the soul.
Glenavon Guest House is a self-contained wing of a larger house. We often work at weekends, and welcome self-contained guests.
Glenavon is a larch-clad, newly-built house in Abbey St Bathans, a small, rural community near Duns, and about an hour's drive from Edinburgh. Come and relax in the remote beauty of the Scottish Borders, walk the hills and rivers, make friends with the local sheep, and explore the local area, rich in history.
The Guest House comprises a large double bedroom, a south-facing living/dining room (including double sofa-bed), a wetroom and a modern kitchen.
We have installed all mod cons for maximum comfort. Sturdy ground-source central heating system, Wifi, freshly decorated rooms and brand new kitchen and appliances. Our garden is a work in progress, and the Moneynut Burn (stream) runs in front of the house, and we have built stone steps down for those who are brave enough to go paddling!
With off-road parking and your own separate entrance, we hope Glenavon Guest House can serve as a clean, cosy base for you to explore all that the Scottish Borders has to offer. (We have left some local guidebooks in the hall.)
All bed-linen and towels included, plus shampoo, conditioner and shower-gel. The wetroom is fully tiled, with a very hot shower with excellent pressure to refresh after a long walk in the hills!
The kitchen is fully equipped, and there's tea, coffee, sugar, and salt available. We'd recommend bringing supplies with you, as the nearest supermarket is in Duns, approximately 12 kilometers away.
The washing machine is brand new, and a couple of washing capsules are provided free of charge. Also included are iron (& ironing board), sewing kit in case of emergencies, hair dryer, drying rack, plenty of wardrobe and drawer space, first aid kit, games, puzzles and books for entertainment - and as much fresh air as you have room for!
If you are traveling with friends, do check out the two Air BnB rentals closeby, the Woodland Cabin (https://www.airbnb.co.uk/rooms/26511146) and Miss Rankin's (https://www.airbnb.co.uk/rooms/26158196) which provide flexibility of choice for different group-sizes.
Also, the new Riverside Bakehouse and Cafe may only be open at weekends (10am-3pm) but it has already proved to be a hit with locals and visitors alike. It's only a fifteen minute wander from the Guest House.
Hem gaudit realment de la nostra estada a Glenavon i Abbey St Bathans i em va semblar difícil sortir. Miranda és una amable amiga i molt servicial i sensible a qualsevol pregunta que tinguéssim. L'allotjament en si és molt còmode i té una bona relació qualitat-preu i la ubicació és fantàstica. Estàvem tan il·lusionats per l’abundant vida silvestre just davant de la nostra finestra i vam encantar el paisatge dels voltants de Scottish Borders. Sens dubte, recomanaria i m'agradaria estar de nou. ps La fleca local ven el millor pa que he provat durant molt de temps.
Ann Louise2019-06-02T00:00:00ZAcabo de tornar de la nostra petita escapada aquí, el lloc era molt tranquil, immaculada, un paisatge perfecte per relaxar-se. Vam tenir una gran quantitat de vida salvatge al voltant de esquirols, els faisers, etc. definitivament tornaria a recomanar-los a altres persones i és ideal per a qualsevol que vulgui allunyar-se del diari i relaxar-se.
Anthony2019-05-29T00:00:00ZUna estada tan tranquil·la i bonica. He passat aquí divendres-dilluns i no em vaig sentir mai relaxat. L’acostament a la casa des de l’A1 era fàcil, impressionant i tranquil. La casa es troba en una petita vall amb molt poques cases a prop. És tan tranquil en sortir a terme que es revisen a fons per tota la vida salvatge, ja que suposo que no estan acostumats a que la gent estigui al seu voltant. Miranda estava molt atenta tot i estar allà aquest cap de setmana i volia assegurar-se que tot fos perfecte. Hi va haver petits detalls encantadors al voltant de la casa per fer les coses més fàcils de treballar com a notes sobre com obrir les captures de la finestra i quin canvi va ser el ventilador del bany, etc. Vaig prendre el suggeriment de Miranda i vaig trobar la fantàstica fleca a 15 minuts a peu que venia pastes fresques. pa (vaig menjar-ne un i em van portar 2 pans a casa amb mi) i pastissos. Un punt a destacar va ser un passeig circular de 12 quilòmetres de la casa a través del pavelló de Edinburgh Broch. A només 20 minuts amb cotxe de la costa també va ser fantàstic visitar la reserva natural de St Abbs. Recomano per escapar i destress per al cap de setmana. Tornaré segur!
Ellie2019-05-20T00:00:00ZGlenavon és una casa molt ben moblada situada al costat d'un riu magnífic. Vam tenir una època gloriosa escoltant el cant dels ocells, mirant les ovelles i mirant el bosc des de la comoditat de la sala d'estar. És una escapada tranquil·la molt recomanada de la vida quotidiana.
Jonathan2019-05-07T00:00:00ZEns va encantar la nostra estada al lloc de Miranda. Netament net i molt ben equipat, amb molt d'espai per a quatre persones. Totes les instruccions i consells de Miranda van ser molt clars i útils. La comunicació era genial! Ens va agradar molt estar tan aïllats, vam fer unes quantes passejades encantadores i fins i tot vam nedar al riu. Hi ha molt poc senyal de telèfon a la propietat, però el wifi és excel·lent. El 100% recomanaria a qualsevol que estigués buscant una estada tranquil·la en les boniques Scottish Borders!
Maura2019-04-21T00:00:00ZUna ubicació increïble; un allotjament elegant i modern amb totes les comoditats i unes vistes impressionants. Un lloc ideal per passejar i una cafeteria artesana a prop.
Victoria 2019-04-08T00:00:00ZGlenavon és una petita joia meravellosa. La casa és càlida, acollidora i confortable, amb tot el que pugueu necessitar i algunes coses que ni tan sols sabíeu que necessiteu. La ubicació és impressionant, només amb ovelles i faisans per als veïns. Miranda és molt amable i servicial, disponible si necessiteu alguna cosa, però no molest. Si us agrada la pau i la tranquil·litat i voleu explorar els bonics voltants, no podreu demanar-vos un millor lloc per allotjar-vos. Si pogués concedir més estrelles, jo ho faria.
Patricia2019-04-02T00:00:00ZLa nostra estada a l'hostal era perfecta. Es troba en una ubicació impressionant, tranquil·la i tranquil·la. Fantàstiques instal·lacions i comoditats, Miranda ha pensat en tot. Totes les habitacions estaven netes, modernes i molt càlides. Àmplia zona d'aparcament privada a la carretera accedida per un camí d'accés compartit. I una entrada independent a la casa d'hostes. Us recomanaria encaridament si aneu per aquesta bonica zona d'Escòcia. No puc esperar a tornar!

Edinburgh is just 50 mins away and there much to see in the Borders.
With the rapidly developing Coronavirus crisis and an increasing number of people self-isolating, our property could be the perfect escape for those wishing to avoid contact with others potentially infected or self-isolating. Our normal daily life here on the farm is virtually one of self-isolation and days go by when we do not come into contact with anyone, yet still being on the edge of and part of a small village of 300 inhabitants. We have 50 acres of farmland that you can walk around and look at the animals and hear the wildlife, without seeing another soul. Isolated beauty spots, hill walking, quiet beaches and river walks and lots of cycling can also be found around and about our property, again without having to come into close contact with another human.
The annexe cottage is self-contained with private parking and its own separate entrance and therefore is ideal for escaping social contact without feeling too isolated from life and human habitation.
The annexe cottage is deep cleaned thoroughly after every visit using alcohol and hydrogen peroxide products. This includes cleaning of all door handles and hard surfaces in addition to all kitchen equipment being re-washed after every guest visit.
In nearby Duns (less than five minutes by car) there is a superb fresh fish and delicatessen shop, award winning butcher, small Co-op supermarket, pharmacy, newsagents and wine store/ice cream parlour. All of which have continued to be well stocked in spite of the reported panic buying elsewhere. We would also be more than happy to assist with any shopping you may require during your stay if you require it.
Our farmhouse annexe has been newly renovated to a high standard. With underfloor heating throughout, Egyptian Cotton bedding and Hungarian goose down pillows, in a tranquil rural environment, we are sure you will sleep well and enjoy your retreat here.
We provide guests with complimentary organic free-range eggs, cake, tea/coffee, and milk on arrival.
We have bookshelves filled with a selection of books and a number of board games to play. Our living room has an Aromatherapy Humidifier with lavender oil that guests can use throughout their stay.
The farmhouse annexe offers a new kitchen with combi oven/grill/microwave, dishwasher, super speed Wifi, and outdoor seating area. Guests can enjoy the beautiful sunrises from the kitchen window (as shown in the photos). The living area has a Smart TV and a cosy wood burning stove with unlimited supply of wood.

We provide maps, local tourist information and a walking route map of our farm.
Guests have private off road parking right outside the annexe.
Alexa runs yoga classes at the yoga studio beside the annexe cottage on Mondays 9.45-11am, 6-7pm and Thursdays 6-7pm (£8 per class) which you are welcome to attend if there is space available. Private yoga lessons also available upon request. Gavinton has a number of beautiful walks and cycle routes nearby and is within walking distance (30 mins) of Duns, which is a lovely walk through the hills.

17 The Green is a charming studio cottage in the middle of the ancient village of Swinton in the Scottish Borders.
Swinton dates from the 11th century or earlier, and is associated with the Swinton family, who took their name from the settlement. In 1769, the village was re-designed around the village green (one of only two in the Scottish borders) where the property is located. A market was created, now marked by the market cross. The village's symbol is a boar, which can be found on the market cross, above the door of the kirk, and carved in to the pulpit.

Very quiet and peaceful place. Noise is minimal at night. Within a 5 minute walk of both an Asda supermarket and a pub/restaurant.

SuperhostWhippet Lodge is a beautifully cosy yet deceptively large, traditional stone cottage in the ancient village of Swinton. Once belonging to the Swinton family, and built from local 'Swinton Pink' sandstone, the cottage is steps from spectacular countryside - perfect for walkers, photographers, artists and nature lovers. There is a dog friendly pub serving quality food just across road. Dog friendly with a large enclosed rear garden, we are well located for both the Borders and Northumberland.
Whippet Lodge owners, Musician and Songwriter Gary and Illustrator and Designer Helen, find the cottage the perfect place to relax, work and be inspired. The peace and quiet is priceless, and they'd like to share their bolt-hole with you when they aren't using it. Gary and Helen are happy to be able to let out the whole house to up to four guests, and if you'd like to bring your pet, the charge is £10 per animal per stay. The décor is colourful yet relaxing, and reflects the surrounding area and wildlife, as well as the couple's love for vintage and the unusual. Whippet Lodge has many thoughtful touches such as a slow cooker, so that explorers can have a hot meal waiting for them when they return from their adventures, a Tassimo coffee machine (and otherwise fully equipped kitchen), doggy towels, bowls and blankets, spare duvets for those chillier evenings, remote controlled heaters so guests can have their room toasty warm before getting out of bed and a lovely old deep enamel bath to soak in. Other amenities include a fully working open fire, with a starter supply of kindling and logs, a selection of herbal teas, as well as a start up of milk, tea and coffee, a selection of DVD's, games and jigsaws, WI-FI, and an Amazon Firestick so that guests can log into their favourite TV and Film apps on the big screen.
Swinton dates to the 11th century or earlier, and is associated with the Swinton family, who took their name from the settlement. In 1769, the village was re-designed and a market was created, now marked by the market cross. (Whippet Lodge was built some time between then and 1865, which is as far back as records allow at present). A parish church was built and still stands today. In the churchyard, the Swintons have their own burial enclosure. In 1843, the Free Church of Swinton was built, but in the 1900s the spire was removed and it became the local village hall. According to oral tradition, the name of the village is derived from the number of wild boars the land was once infested with. Swinton House, 1 mile (1.6 km) west of the village, dates in its current form to 1800, and was the residence of many of the Swinton family. It was built to replace an earlier house, which was destroyed by fire in the late 18th century. Both the house and the nearby 18th century dovecote are protected as category A listed buildings. There is a very pleasant pub, The Wheatsheaf, which serves good quality food and drink, just across the road from The Green. A small children's play area, picnic tables and football nets are also on The Green, just outside Whippet Lodge in fact. Almost like having your own private park, with the kids in view and calling distance.

Today, cattle and sheep are often to be seen grazing upon the slopes of Duns Law. Coach House also sits on the edge of woodland, with access to extensive forest trails and a large variety of mature trees, many bearing identification plates to inspire the curious.

Nearby, and open to visitors, is Manderston, featured on television as “the swan-song of Edwardian architecture”. It is the finest country house of it’s era in Scotland and features a silver staircase and superb, extensive gardens.
Duns hosts the Jim Clark memorial museum dedicated to the famous Formula 1 world champion who lived locally. The town is also the birthplace of the renowned 13th Century philosopher John Duns Scotus, who was beatified by Pope John Paul 11 in 1993.
Just a short stroll away is Duns Castle and Nature Reserve, offering great walks and a wealth of bird and animal life. If you are very lucky you might see an otter or even an osprey here!
Duns offers a good selection of local shops, pubs, cafes and restaurants. Further afield, but all within a 15 miles radius, is the historic walled town of Berwick upon Tweed, delightful Kelso and the old fishing port of Eyemouth with a great beach and the best fish and chips in the Scottish Borders! Coldstream, the home of the Guards Regiment, is situated on the banks of the beautiful River Tweed 12 miles south.
Edinburgh, the grand old capital of Scotland is just a 45-minute drive from Duns.
The whole area offers great opportunities for walking, cycling, fishing, birdwatching, photography and history enthusiasts.

A cosy, rural cottage in East Lothian which is 1 mile from the village of Garvald and 3 miles from the village of Gifford (supermarket in this village). The location is on a farm at the foot of the Lammermuir Hills with lovely open views and lots of great nearby walks along the picturesque beaches, foothill paths & tracks. It's also a great area for cycling, the surrounding roads were used by Iron Man Triathlon in 2017 and 2018 as part of the cycling route! The cottage offers a truly relaxing stay in the quiet of the countryside although it is also only 40 minutes drive from Edinburgh and the local villages and towns are of course nearer.
