Todrig Cottage

With glorious views across the Cheviot Hills and the three peaks of the Eildon Hills, this charming cottage makes a wonderful holiday base for exploring the countryside of the Scottish Borders. Ideal for a couple or a family, the cottage is part of a charming complex of three properties which can be booked together by larger groups. You will also have access to a delightful shared courtyard and a fantastic shared games room.

This lovely cottage has been thoughtfully updated to provide cosy accommodation for up to four guests. Attractively furnished and decorated in light, refreshing shades, the cottage retains some original features including exposed beams and wooden floors. The shared games room features an excellent range of amusements including table tennis, table football, a games console, TV/DVD, dartboard and a selection of books to browse.

Entering this delightful cottage, you will find yourself in the bright, airy and inviting lounge. With TV/DVD, comfortable seating and French doors leading to the garden, this is a lovely room to relax in at the end of a great day out. A small flight of stairs leads down from the hall to the farmhouse-style kitchen/diner where you can gather and share your favourite meals and plan the next day’s adventures.

Going upstairs there are two delightful bedrooms, each with en-suite facilities – there’s a stylish king-size room and a lovely twin room.

Stepping outside, the back garden has a lovely private patio area with direct access from the lounge – perfect for al fresco dining.
