Tucked into the Yarrow Valley, this home is a cosy retreat for two. Inside, expect curated vintage decor and rustic charm. Outside, a private courtyard garden is ideal for sundowners, while a terrace overlooks the river and rolling hills. Red squirrels, deer, and birds of prey are regular visitors to this unspoilt corner of the Scottish Borders, and hiking, fishing, and canoeing trails start directly from the door. When you're ready to explore, St Mary's Loch is 14 kilometres away and Edinburgh is around a ninety-minute drive – far enough to feel properly away from it all.

Home truths
One well-behaved small-to-medium-sized dog is welcome to join you upon request.
This is a rural retreat – the nearest town centre is a short drive away, and Edinburgh Airport is around a ninety-minute journey, so you'll want a car to make the most of the area. Private parking is available for one car.

The Yarrow Valley has limited phone signal, and the TV has no aerial signal – only streaming options. While there is full-fibre wi-fi here, it's a great place for a digital detox.

About Roxburgh, Ettrick and Lauderdale
Rolling hills dotted with sheep, a patchwork of fields and the ribbon of the River Tweed cutting through the land make up this away-from-it-all part of the Scottish Borders. In the Ettrick Valley you’ll find the scenery that inspired shepherd turned writer James Hogg and rambles across the landscape are punctuated by ancient towers.
