About this property

A light filled studio space, with large bathroom and balcony bedroom

Barns Bothy is a newly renovated and extremely comfortable bolt hole, in a beautiful setting. Comfortable bed, spacious bathroom, log burning stove and well equipped kitchen. Large garden and room to store your bikes. Lots of heavenly walks from the front door. Enjoy this perfect space for two people, or take Barns Library and Barns Tower, both next door for a group of up to 10 friends.
The space
Barns Bothy is light filled, warm and comfortable. A perfect place to hide away for a few days from the hurly burly of life. Plenty of breathtaking walks right from the front door, and a pretty garden to spend time in.
Guest access
Guests can enjoy walking extensively in the Barns Estate. The Arboretum is just opposite the Bothy, and there are woodland, riverside and hill top walks in every direction.
Other things to note
If the Bothy is already booked for your preferred dates, we do also have 2 other unusual and luxurious properties just nearby at Barns Library and Barns Tower. Both of these can be booked either directly or through VRBO.

Another great stay at Barns Bothy
This is a returning visit to Barns Bothy for us as we stayed in the Library last year for my son's wedding and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We returned to the Bothy in October for a lovely few days. Cosy accommodation for two with everything you need for a home from home comfortable stay!! We will definitely be back again soon.

8/10 Good

Its a stylish retreat
After a long drive the cottage was very welcoming - warm and cozy and well equiped. The cottage felt spacious. There were comfortable seating to relax infront of the very efficient log burner. It was nice to have a reasonable sized a table to eating at. The kitchen was compact but workable with all the expected appliances. The bathroom was suprisingly big. The bed was confortable and it was fun lying in bed looking up at the stars through the velux windows. We were visiting for a wedding at the castle (which was also great fun in a wonderful setting). One thing to rememder is to book the taxi to the castle - we used Gold Star who were prompt and friendly.

Fantastic place to enjoy some quiet time.
Beautifully presented property, with great facilities, in an excellent location to enjoy the peace of the countryside. Lovely walks along the Tweed, including a walk to Peebles passing Neidpath Castle. Looking forward to going back.

About the host

Hosted by Lulu Benson

Host profile image
I love renovating old buildings and welcoming guests to stay and enjoy them. Scotland is an amazing country, and my corner of it, here in the Scottish Borders, is as romantic and beautiful as anywhere.

Why they chose this property

Barns Bothy, is a haven of comfort for two, where the bed has sky views should you wish to see the stars, and the log burning stove is heaven to cosy up in front of in chillier times. The bathroom is large and warm and the galley Kitchen is well equipped for cooking up a fine dinner.

What makes this property unique

Located in an historic Stable Courtyard, with lovely walks, right from the front door. Two other properties nearby, Barns Tower and Barns Library, can all be rented if you want to come as a group.
Peebles is a short drive away, or 40 minutes walk along the River Tweed, and Glentress, is a world renowned mountain biking Mecca just 10 minutes drive away.
