Why they chose this property
Old Linthill has been in the Home family since it was built in the 18th century. In the past few years it has had a loving and extensive makeover, with new bathrooms installed, fresh paintwork, new central heating system and new beds, soft furnishings and appliances. We like to think that we have retained all of the character of the house while adding modern comforts to make your stay truly memorable.
It is located in 28 aces of woodland and parkland with streams running through, but while still being within walking distance of the fishing village of Eyemouth with its restaurants, bars, museum and leisure facilities.
