What our customers say about their holidays

Kevin - Verified booking

We have visited Netherraw for three years running however, sadly this will be the last time.

As a positive if you want isolation and great night skies and walks on your doorstep, Netherraw is perfect. There is hardly any noise, so you can hear the wildlife all around you. The upstairs bedrooms now have hangers for your clothes and ample drawer space. Sadly, the negatives we found were numerous. The shower basin easily flooded and water spilled over on to the floor. The only way to avoid this was to turn the shower on get wet, turn the shower off, lather up and then rinse off. Which isn't what you expect to do. This was raised last year when we came, but nothing has been done, in fact it is worse. The extractor fan isn't strong enough to cope with the steam in the shower room, so we had to leave the door open for it to escape. Not ideal but thankfully there was only the two of us. The toilet seat in the shower room, the laminate is cracked underneath and looks like it would soon start to peel off. The hot tube was part of the attraction of going to Netherraw, especially after long walks. On the second day we removed the hot tubs cover only to find that the headrests were damaged through wear and tear, their coverings were cracked and in some places none existent exposing the foam/cushioning underneath - so we decided not to use it. The overall feeling for us was that through usage the cottage just needs a bit of TLC.

Our first impression when walking in to Stable Lodge was Wow!

It is extremely welcoming and does not disappoint as you enter each room. The bedrooms are well furnished with plenty of wardrobe space and hangers, and very comfortable beds. The kitchen has everything you need, in fact more than you need! We really appreciated the cake, biscuits, milk, tea, coffee and all the other little extras. The lounge is cosy and comfortable to relax in by the fire. We thought all the different table lights in each room were beautiful. The location is excellent for exploring, only an hour from Edinburgh which was our main reason for choosing Coldstream as I had always wanted to see the castle. We went to various other places too including Berwick upon Tweed and Bamburgh and loved to come 'home' at the end of a day. Coldstream itself is an interesting town with lovely walks, quirky little gift shops, an excellent butchers, and the Besom Inn was worth the visit! I would certainly recommend Stable Lodge and would definitely return if visiting the area again.

The most well thought out and considerate accommodation!

I was totally blown away by the property having everything we needed any more; from condiments in the cupboard, spare baby shampoo and bubble bath in the bathroom to nightlights across the house. Plus the brownie cake left for us on arrival was amazing and a lovely surprise! We felt totally at home and so so comfortable. The house is wonderful and everything we needed for our week away with our toddler. The garden and space around the house is fantastic! The only thing we can suggest, and this is really a small thing and doesnât take away from our stay- the knives were rather blunt so we struggled to cut meat and veg. So in love with our stay and absolutely would book again in a heartbeat

We really enjoyed our 3 night stay at Netherraw cottage.

Absolutely nothing to fault. The space was perfect and in the middle of the countryside with nothing but nature all around us - where we also enjoyed a few walks. Inside the cottage was very homely with everything you could possibly need and very comfortable. The weather was also wonderful, but that just added to the experience where we spent most of the time out the back, eating, having a few relaxing drinks and spending time in the awesome hot tub out the back too! Thank you for making this lovely cottage a lovely experience for anyone who enjoys a nice escape to the country, which we most appreciated!

Stable Lodge is an excellent property with everything you need for a wonderful stay.

Zoe is the perfect host with excellent communication and a wonderful welcome pack left for us at the cottage. All amenities close by within easy walking distance, shops, pubs, takeaways, restaurants, butchers etc. Parking available in the square immediately outside the cottage. Perfect location on the border for local walks and further afield journeys such as to Edinburgh and Bamburgh castles being particular highlights for us. Definitely recommended and we would love to return to this beautiful part of the country and certainly to both Colldstream and Stable Lodge.
