Beautiful cottage in a lovely remote and peaceful setting that was very well equipped with everything you could need. Only 30 minutes or so from Kelso for supermarket etc. We really enjoyed our stay and the hot tub was just amazing with some stunning sunsets. Natalie is a perfect host and we definitely hope to return as soon as possible.
