Coldstream is a charming town close to the Scottish Borders known for its rich history and stunning landscapes. Situated along the River Tweed, the area offers a perfect blend of natural beauty and cultural attractions. The Coldstream Museum is a must-see, showcasing the town's military heritage as the birthplace of the Coldstream Guards – one of the British Army's oldest regiments. The Hirsel Estate is another highlight, offering a peaceful retreat with its tranquil lakes, picturesque woodlands, and art galleries. Nature lovers can enjoy the scenic beauty of the Cheviot Hills, ideal for hiking and outdoor adventures. The historic Coldstream Bridge, which connects Scotland and England, provides not only a link between the two countries but also a great spot for taking in the beautiful surrounding views. Visit Heatherslaw Light Railway, Flodden Visitor Centre, and the historic castles at both Ford and Etal, all within 8 miles.

Step inside this stylishly decorated period property, and into the spacious hallway where you can leave your outdoor wear and head through to the light and bright open-plan living area. Relax on the comfortable sofas after a day out exploring the splendid local area, with a movie on the Smart TV or connect your music to the Bluetooth speaker. Cook up a storm in the well-equipped, bespoke kitchen and enjoy a romantic meal or bustling family gathering in the dining area. There is also direct access from the lounge area to the fully enclosed garden through the large bi-fold doors. Head into the sumptuous super-king-size bedroom with a spacious and contemporary en-suite shower room featuring a large walk-in double-headed shower and WC.

We enjoyed our week in Coldstream. There was just a few aspects that we didnt like which was perhaps more down to us and the properties we have hired before.

A lovely place to stay, was welcomed with a little treat left by the owners and they were very nice and friendly when we bumped into them. The property was clean and tidy, with everything needed to enjoy our stay. Good links to Northumberland and Scotland.

House was really nice, plenty of space in all the rooms and the garden area was fine for use on sunny days. Although the only available parking is on the street, we never had an issue.

We stayed here with two dogs, so the enclosed shared garden was a bonus. The property is well situated in Coldstream with walks along the river Tweed and walks in and around Coldstream a stone throw away. It is a lovely property, nicely decorated, lovely furniture and ample kitchen equipment. It is a great base for exploring Scottish Boarders and bRead moreeyond. We really enjoyed our stay. Hide

Lovely lower villa. Perfect location for exploring the east coast and Scottish Borders. We where the first guests so everything was new and shiny. Didnt have any problems and owner just lives next door so if there was anything Im sure he would help out.
