Escape to the countryside in this idyllic family home in the heart of the Scottish Borders. Walking routes are plentiful in the immediate area, and you can enjoy day trips to the picturesque village of Melrose (16 miles) or one of the region’s many stately homes and castles. Sleeping four guests and two canine friends, the property is perfect for a small family or two couples. The holiday home has a sociable, open-plan layout and a beautiful patio for al fresco dining overlooking fields and countryside.
The property boasts high ceilings and has a plethora of windows to flood the home with natural light. Simple decor and contemporary design create a relaxed atmosphere, and many of the rooms benefit from tranquil rural views.
Enter the property via the patio and into the light and bright lounge/kitchen/diner. This open-plan area is the perfect space to enjoy each other’s company. Chat on the sofa whilst the dinner cooks, before coming together around the dining table for evenings of great food and laughter. After dinner, sink into the plump sofas to watch a movie on the Smart TV. Both bedrooms – a double and a twin – are also located on this level, along with the stylish shower room.
Heading outside, discover an enclosed patio area with seating for al fresco dining. This is the ideal spot to sip a glass of wine at the end of the day, watching the vast array of wildlife coming and going in the garden. Along with the patio, there is also an enclosed garden where children and hounds can play. The property has off-road parking for two cars, as well as secure bike storage.
