Just 1.5 miles from Coldstream and 15 miles from Berwick and the coast is the charming tiny community of Cornhill-on-Tweed, which is located on the northernmost edge of Northumberland and the Scottish Border. It is a serene place with stunning open countryside that is ideal for walkers and golfers, and the River Tweed is a major draw for anglers. The Heritage Coast of Northumberland, which features castles, miles of white sand beaches, animals, and dunes, is only a 30-minute pleasant drive from Cornhill. Only 40 minutes separate you from Alnwick, which has a historic Norman castle and garden. The community has a post office/shop that provides the majority of necessities and a country house hotel called The Collingwood Arms that is well known for its high-quality meals and beer.

However, I couldnât have chosen better. The cottage is situated on the Northumberland/Scottish border making it a perfect base to explore the local historic sites and some of our nationâs most beautiful countryside. The cottage itself was spotlessly clean and well equipped for self catering (including a dishwasher). On arrival I was welcomed with a bottle of wine a some yummy treats for both myself and my two dogs. The coach house complex is surrounded by free range chickens, sheep and rolling field making is quiet and peaceful. There are two local pubs one about 250 metres down the road, the second (The Black Bull) around 4 km away in the quaint village of Etal; both of which are dog friendly and serve reasonably priced food. My only criticism is that it was virtually impossible to regulate the water temperature of the shower; notwithstanding, I would definitely recommend this cottage and would not hesitate staying here again. It was exceptional value for money. However, next time Iâll make sure I take my telescope to make the most of the dark sky overhead.

Welcome pack very much appreciated. Spotlessly clean. Nicely furnished and remarkably no extra charge for our dog. Made a few suggestions for minor additions which were appreciated by the owner. Would definitely recommend. Great location , beautiful area, lots of walks and a short stroll to the local pub. THANK YOU.
