    Not being from Scotland it was difficult to figure out how to use the stove/oven (gas switch was off on the wall) and no instructions were provided…but we figured it out eventually.

    Comfortable, easy parking, like having WiFi, TV, and kitchen to prepare some meals. Shower is great-good water pressure and water temperature.

    My only issue was the mattress but I appreciate that is very much personal opinion, just too hard for me.

    Lovely property, decorated beautifully with a superb shower. Two good size double rooms. Everything we could needed was provided. We travel to Lauder a couple of times a year and this was one of the best accommodations we have stayed in.

    The lights, sometimes you need to mess with the dimmer switches for the lights to come on.

    Plenty of space in the large kitchen for cooking, nice size living room. Great shower has the duel shower head and waterfall shower with pressure that takes all the aches from the day away.

    It's only a tiny thing... but a couple of dishwasher tablets and some washing up liquid plus a sponge would have been very useful! But there's a shop nearby, so not a tragedy!

    The bed was super comfortable, and the house was a delight. Warm, and supplied with just about everything one could need!

    Nothing to report 😇

    Lovely, well kept apartment, clean and cosy. Kind and helpful host. Handy for the main road where there was a great cafe called Flatcat Art Gallery, and the take away shop Marmaris was great too. Local Co-Op was just round the corner. Short drive to Thirleston Castle and Melrose Abbey. Weather was awful or else we would have explored more and also sat out on the lovely decked patio area. Maybe next time!

    My only tiny gripe is that it was a bit dusty. It was clean but probably had been cleaned when the last people were in and then the dust built up but it was absolutely nothing that was awful at all! And we were very last minute booking (day before) so it's completely understandable. I loved the place so this is a very small issue.

    It was very well equipped and decorated nicely. The bathroom was gorgeous with the under floor heating and waterfall shower. Felt very much at home. Comfortable and high quality home. Clearly a lot of effort had been put into the cottage and it really felt like a home. I would have been happy to stay longer. Marion was in constant contact as well which was lovely and reassuring. She allowed us an early check in too which was amazing.

    We seemed to regularly run out of crockery so extra cups & side plates particularly, would be helpful. There appeared to b no refuse bin for plastic or glass outside cottage - perhaps there's a communal place in town for these? We needed instructions for microwave but we sussed it out eventually!

    Well furnished with the most modern of equipment/ fittings. Beds very comfortable. Pleasant and private sit-out area. Good central location for shops and within reasonable travelling distance from places to visit

    Everything! the property is exceptional and beautiful inside.We felt very welcome with everything we needed to start our holiday. The kind gesture of a bottle of milk and some shortbread was very much appreciated. Marion ensured we had everything we needed and we couldn’t have wished for anything better.
