What our customers say about their holidays

  The property is far bigger than we expected and could accommodate 8 adults with ease we used the open plan area table and chairs and the outdoor seating for meals didn't use the seperate dining room at all.

  It was clean and everything you could want was provided, far more than previously experienced in other holiday let's. The hot tub was a great bonus although we were confused over the controls and couldn't get the lights to come on. It's a quiet area with dark skies for stargazing and beautiful daytime views. The birds can be a bit noisy in a morning if you're a light sleeper with windows open but that's the sound of the countryside. We had a great full weeks stay and enjoyed the area. Its worth mentioning as we were hesitant initially regarding the baths with hand held showers. These have been upgraded to shower over bath so there are 3 showers in the property all working fine. The extra toilet room near the front door was a real convenience too. The one problem we had during our stay( boiler breakdown) was quickly sorted by the owner getting a plumber round within hours despite her being out of the country at the time. We'll done Nicola. All in all a fantastic holiday let with comfy beds and everything on hand for a relaxing country holiday. For no nonsense eating out we recommend The Waggon pub in Kelso we had Sunday lunch there and a pub meal later in the week both were fantastic and reasonably priced with great service too.

  We have spent an amazing family holiday in the beautiful Sevenacres bungalow in Ednam near Kelso.

  What a find this was and it was great to read about the history of the property! The property is immaculate with so much space inside, the two living areas was a bonus with a variety of different seating options. It was so relaxing and we could all retire to different corners of the house if we needed some quiet time. It has a large kitchen area with everything you need in the cupboards. The beds are comfy and lots of separate toilets and shower areas. The amazing hot tub is situated in a sheltered spot with beautiful views and a massive seated garden area. We even saw some deer in the fields opposite the house. Great WiFi throughout the property which was a plus for our teenage son! Kelso is only approx. 2 miles away so we took a walk into town as well as separate walks to the surrounding villages. We were so lucky with the weather but if you are stuck indoors there is so much space and you can find games in the cupboards that you can play as a family. This is a really special property and we would thoroughly recommend this to anyone looking for a break away with friends and/or family. It had everything we needed and more. Well done to the owners!

  The cottage is HUGE.

  It is truly stunning with massive rooms - plenty of space for everyone. There is a large master bedroom with en-suite. This is a beautiful room. There is also large twin which shares bathroom with double room. And lastly a double room with en-suite. There is the fabulous kitchen/diner with soft furniture and dining table. This is a gorgeous room with fantastic views and access to hot tub. Everything about the cottage is amazing. It has fully fitted kitchen with every implement you could wish for. Double ovens, massive fridge with separate freezer. Loads of plates, cups, glasses including plastic glasses for hot tub. There is TV in kitchen along with radio and bluetooth speaker. The living room is so plush with the beautiful gas coal fire - cozy. There is plenty of sofas and chairs which are so comfortable. It has gas central heating which keeps the cottage lovely and warm. We absolutely loved our 3 x night stay here and will definitely be back. We would highly recommend this property for large groups. It is a total chilled and relaxed atmosphere. You won't be disappointed.

  I apologise for the lateness of my reply - unfortunately this was due to illness.

  This was the second time I have used seven acres, the first being a ladies holiday in October 2003. This time it was to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary and there were three generations staying in the house. This was absolutely wonderful as it gave people space to do what they wanted without getting on top of each other. We were eating out for the celebration meal but my family tastefully decorated the dining room (without damaging wallpaper etc. and surprised us with a lovely afternoon tea. It made our 50th anniversary so very special. I cannot walk much now but our children and grandchildren are walkers and had such amazing walks - the area really lends itself to this. As you can imagine, the hot tub was very well used. In closing, A great big thank you goes to the owners who have provided an absolutely beautiful home, so well equipped which has certainly given joy at a special time in our family. I wouldn’t most definitely recommend Sevenacres to anyone and so hope we can return. Jenn MacIver

  Great Bungalow with plenty of room, great little garden (although steps so younger child has to be helped around, and hot tub was good too.

  Nicola was great and responsive when i made contact before arrival re bedroom set ups. Upon arrival clear instructions given and good communication throughout when needed, or when she came to check the tub. Lots of lovely country walks around, great town on door step in Kelso with plenty of lovely places to eat and more within 30 minutes drive. There is lots to do local outdoors, with children ages 2 and 5 we found for indoor things we has around an hours travel. This doesn't bother us and not a negative but for children who don't travel well maybe worth considering. We visited some of the castle on dryer days, and did nearby Jedburgh Jail and Abbey, travelled to National Museum of Flight and Heatherslaw Railway.
