About this property

Charming rural retreat in beautiful gardens

The Annex at Kirkhouse is a charming self-contained cottage with private garden, attached to a historic country house in the Scottish Borders. Surrounded by beautiful rolling hills, including part of the Southern Upland Way; tributaries to the salmon and trout-rich River Tweed; and also many miles of forest trails for adventure seeking mountain bikers, our accommodation will appeal to anyone with a love of the great outdoors. 2 miles to the village of Innerleithen for all local amenities & several pubs!

Accommodation consists of a large well-equipped kitchen diner with an original flagstone floor and a wood burning stove. From the kitchen, French doors lead into the spacious and contemporary conservatory which benefits from underfloor heating and views of the private garden and picturesque valley beyond. A large living room, again with beautiful views, provides further sleeping options by way of a sofa bed.

There are two large bedrooms; one with a super-king sized bed, one with a regular double bed. Both bedrooms offer plenty of wardrobe hanging space and further storage as required. The property has one large family bathroom with bath and shower over.

Guests will have access to their own private garden and outdoor seating. During the summer months, a charcoal BBQ can be available upon request. The use of a washing machine/dryer can be arranged, as well as the provision of lockable storage areas for bikes etc.

Your hosts and their three young children, live in the the main house adjoined to The Annex and would be happy to assist with anything.

On request, basic baby equipment such as a high chair and travel-cot can be provided.
