Teviot View Cottage

About this property

Settled on the outskirts of Ancrum, Scotland, is this reverse-level holiday home, Teviot View Cottage. Enjoying a historic location in a village which was the setting for the Battle of Ancrum Moor, and set along the River Ale, Teviot View Cottage is a fantastic family-friendly choice for couples, friends, families and their two canine companions. On the ground floor, you will find two well-presented bedrooms, a double and a twin, both of which are served by a well-appointed shower room, ideal for freshening up after an adventure filled day. Head upstairs, where you will find a well-equipped kitchen for whipping up your favourite dishes, ready to enjoy at the dining table for four over a celebratory bottle of fizz. On warmer evenings, why not head out to the rear patio where you can dine alfresco? As the evening grows dark, retreat to the inviting sitting room and relax on the sumptuous seating in front of a much-loved series on the TV. Wander through the village, where you can treat your loved ones to a meal out at the Ancrum Cross Keys, hearty breakfasts at Out-there Artisan, stock up on essentials at the convenience store, or enjoy leisurely strolls through the picturesque Monteviot Gardens. Continue onto St Boswells, where you can test out your swing at the excellent golf club, visit the fascinating Dryburgh Abbey, dine at Hunters Stables Bar & Bistro, or enjoy a walk along the River Tweed with fresh fish and chips in hand. Venture further to Jedburgh, home to a magnificent abbey, Allerley Well Park, and a wide variety of pubs and restaurants, including Stewart’s Bistro, Simply Scottish, and The Carters Rest. Embark on your next adventure to Scotland with a stay at Teviot View Cottage.

Situated less than eight miles north-west of Jedburgh, Ancrum is a tiny village in the Scottish Borders. Located on the Ale River, this village is famous as the site of the 1545 Battle of Ancrum Moor, which saw Scottish forces successfully repel an English invasion of the Borders and lowlands. One of two prominent monuments in the area, the one at the site of the battle was rebuilt in the nineteenth century. Near Lanton, the other notable site is the Timpendean Tower, the remains of a tower house constructed in the 15th century. The town of Ancrum has a few establishments, including a pub, a shop, a butcher, and a Post Office; the neighbouring town of St. Boswells also has these necessities, and the larger towns of Jedburgh and Kelso, with their shops, cafes, restaurants, and famous abbeys, are well worth a visit.
