Beautiful well appointed cottage in an excellent village location. Great private garden for our dog. Good walk down to the beautiful local beach and along the coastal path to St Abbs and Eyemouth. Very clean, spacious and comfortable, although the range cooker took some getting used to! All in all an excellent choice for exploring the local area.

The cottage was in a lovely quiet location, pretty well equipped, clean and comfortable... especially the bed!! Our greyhound particularly enjoyed the large enclosed garden areas but also plenty of walking routes directly from the property too. The local pubs were a little disappointing as only one allowed dogs (in the beer garden or in a small rather uninviting room) and only one sold real ale but only one which had just run out and the barman was unsure when it would be changed so we didn't return. The local Spar sold pretty much anything you might need and the staff were very friendly and helpful.
