Lovely property, really comfy large bed.Great outlook onto front garden. Had a visit from a deer one morning.Safe enclosed rear garden for our dogs ( could have done with the grass being cut)Well equipped kitchen. Was excited to see a range cooker but in reality if you intend catering for yourselves having to fire it up half an hour before use took some getting used to and made the kitchen very warm. Can imagine this would be lovely in the winter.Lovely traffic free walk to beach.

It was comfortable, clean, warm and ideally suited for a dog due to the enclosed garden.Lots of interesting walks nearby.Lovely pub near Reston - The Craw Inn - with very friendly locals.Easy train journey to Edinburgh.We recommend the cafe at St Abbs and the one at Coldingham.
