The cottage was quaint, the aga was a fab addition We thoroughly enjoyed the peace and quiet and the weather was so good to us, we had the sun all day long.

Well laid out property with cosy aga and log burning fire. Feels very relaxed and perfect position for either chilling around house and garden or great central position for sightseeing...easy drive to Scottish coast, Northumberland or Edinburgh. Unfortunately pub was shut due to COVID but handy shop and we were very happy to chill around the cottage with a nice bottle of red! Definitely recommend this property. ##### rachael n.
