Guests say
South Riccalton Farm Cottage is highly praised for its peaceful, remote setting with stunning views, offering a perfect balance of relaxation and exploration opportunities. Guests appreciate the well-equipped, comfortable cottage, especially the hot tub and cosy log burner. The thoughtful touches, such as welcome gifts, add to the charm of this rural retreat.
The property is consistently described as immaculate and clean, with no negative comments on cleanliness, indicating a high standard maintained by the hosts.
The location is celebrated for its superb views and tranquillity, though the remote access via a rough farm track may not suit everyone. Its proximity to Jedburgh and natural attractions adds to its appeal.
Guests find the cottage to be very comfortable, with special mentions of a super comfy bed and a cosy atmosphere enhanced by a log burner.
The facilities, including a well-equipped kitchen, hot tub, and log burner, are highly regarded. The mention of Netflix and internet being patchy prevents a perfect score.
The hosts are commended for their thoughtfulness, with mentions of welcome packs including biscuits, coffee pods, and prosecco. While these gifts are appreciated, they are not guaranteed for every stay.

Sometimes we all need a break away where we can properly switch off. South Riccalton Farm Cottage is a remote property situated on a working farm and provides the perfect environment to do just that. With the flick of a switch on the Wi-Fi and turning the mobile off, you can be completely cut off from whoever you want and take some time to relax in one of the most stunning locations in the heart of the rural Scottish Borders.
This fabulous luxury cottage provides the perfect escape for a couple or two friends to base and enjoy the surroundings. Take some supplies and use the cottage to hide away and enjoy the hot tub or sit in front of the wood burner with a nice glass of your favourite.
The kitchen and dining area are fabulous and has been equipped with all the appliances, crockery and glasses needed for your trip. The bedroom is surprisingly generous in terms of its size, there is hanging space and the beds can be set as either twin singles or fitted together to make a super king size bed, adding a little flexibility. Completing the cottage internally is the well finished shower room with a large shower.
Whatever the reason for your escape, South Riccalton Farm Cottage will be the perfect place to either switch off from the world or to base yourself from where you can explore one of Scotland’s best kept secrets, the fabulous Scottish Borders. Whatever your fancy there is more than enough for anyone to do, regardless of tastes or hobbies.

What a wonderful little gem! Yes, the cottage is remote - we prefer it that way! Yes, the 1 mile drive on the rough farm-track to it is interesting (as is the 4 mile single track road to get to the track!) - It adds to the whole experience! The views from the cottage are superb - pity we were in the fabulous hot tub mainly when it was dark. The area has so many opportunities for walking and sightseeing, my favourite walk was from St Boswells along the River Tweed, at this time of year the autumn colours were stunning. Jedburgh Jail and Mary Queen of Scots House in Jedburgh are well worth a visit. Everything we needed in a cottage was provided. Thank you
