The Hideaway is a well appointed comfortable cottage for 2 in an excellent location close to the centre of Kelso which is a very friendly, attractive market town.The property is expertly managed by Wendy who takes care to ensure an enjoyable stay. Parking is either on road or in the free car park and was never an issue, an excellent cafe is 50 yds away and also cannot praise the nearby Contented vine restaurant highly enough.
