Wild goats and rabbits abound. It was a lovely peaceful place to stay and perfectly located to explore the border countryside.

Cottage was nice and cosy, kitchen was small but well equipped. Like previous visitors we would have preferred a shower cubicle, as getting into bath slightly difficult at our age!

It was very comfortable and furnished with everything we could possibly need. The location was quiet and peaceful but easily within reach of local attractions. We would definitely stay there again.
