    Nothing!!

    This a very easy question to answer. Everything!! They really did think of every. The apartment had it all it was like being in my own house. Complementary wine on arrival. The little things like fresh coffee in the fridge. No need to buy the normal thing you buy when renting an apartment for a few days. Simple stuff like salt, pepper, bin bags I truly could go on and on for pages. Extra pillows, blankets. TV in every room. Wi-Fi was good. Parking was so easy and free for the weekend. Would I and my friends stay here again 100% just a shame the race meet was cancelled due to poor weather. Roll on next time.

    staircase was very steep, for some that would certainly be an issue , more so from the living area up to the bedrooms

    the flat was much bigger and better appointed than we'd expected - location overlooking the town square was superb. We have already recommended it to family and friends

    Shower in ensuite bedroom lacked pressure and difficult to regulate, but this only one small negative in loads of positives

    Great communication from the hosts and very quick to respond to questions. Location is perfect for town, the flat was well presented and extremely clean. Easy to access via key box and plenty of free parking nearby. Exellent facilities to use in kitchen. Both bedrooms a good size and plenty of wardrobe storage. All in all we had an extremely comfortable 2night stay.

    Perfect location in centre of town. Very spacious with a very cosy feel. Hosts had it set up great, with helpful notes and welcome package. It felt like a home from home. The square itself had so many shops and a nice selection of pubs and restaurants which would appeal to everyone. Brilliant property.

    Couldn’t operate key lock and had to phone host. for instructions. It turned out to be very easy but it would be helpful if compleat instructions were included with code.

    Superb home from home. Loved our stay. Loved all the little personal touches and all the tiresome basics of self catering. Made a very good impression.

    Nothing wrong with the property. Because of its central location, visitors should be aware that busy pubs and central square restaurants etc may mean some boisterous conversations late into the weekend evenings. But double glazing prevented that being a problem.

    Wonderfully furnished and thoughtfully equipped. Lots of space, with two separate ‘living’ areas.

    We forgot to order good weather!

    Much bigger than it looks on the pictures - it really is a substantial size! Lovely location, overlooking the Market place to the front, and the Abbey to the rear. Good choice of local places to eat. With hindsight, we shouldn't have shopped before we got there, as the basics (milk, butter, wine etc.) were already in the fridge! Car parking was good - we never had to park more than 50yds away, but after we left we wondered if we could have parked at the front rather than the back?

    The only thing missing as a fisher is storage of rods.

    I have stayed on at least three occasions as I fish the Tweed regularly and it meets all my needs.
