"Our 2nd visit to this lovely property."
Warm, cosy Cottage, great location, great dog walks, everything u need in the cottage, for a lovely weeks holiday!
Fab welcome pack and Graham & Helen are such lovely hosts. Unfortunately we cannot return next year, as Cottage is fully booked on dates that suit us. (Great advertisement for the owners and the quality of the Cottage!)
Thanks for your lovely feedback and for coming back! It was great to see you and hope to do so again sometime. Take care, Helen and Graham

"Wonderfully comfortable cottage in a beautiful setting."
So much had been thought about to enhance our stay and make it feel special. Cake on arrival with tea, coffee, milk and eggs along with lovely thoughtful toiletries. Treats for the dogs along with a special area for them to toilet and play just beside the back door. So many places to walk to enjoy the beautiful area of Canonbie and Langholm (a few minutes drive away). The Cross Keys pub a 1k walk from the front door provided a warm welcome for us and our dogs along with good pub grub - really friendly staff and locals. First Bite cafe in Langholm provided the most wonderful breakfast and cakes and well worth a visit.
Host was friendly and informative and even though they live in the adjoining house we barely knew they were there. Thank you for our stay we would certainly love to stay again in the future. Thank you Rachel, Laurie, Roxy and Betty
Thanks for your lovely feedback and we are so glad that you enjoyed your stay. Hope to see you again sometime, Helen and Graham

"Just perfect!"
We received a lovely welcome from the owners, who showed us round the property. They left us a wonderful M&S hamper to enjoy (even treats for our four-legged family member)! Very comfortable cottage with quality furnishings. Very good location for walks. Lovely and peaceful. A return is a must.

"Fabulous cottage in a very peaceful yet not isolated position."
The welcome we received was warm and friendly and the welcome provisions were an unexpected treat. The cottage is so well appointed it is a real home from home, and extremely comfortable. The dogs were safe in their own garden and the provision of a "poo bin" was so thoughtful not to mention useful! We cannot recommend this too highly, and will certainly be revisiting, even the weather was kind to us in our week. Thank you Graham and Helen for a most enjoyable week.

"The Coach House is in a beautiful location and you feel at home as soon as you walk into it."
Every detail has been carefully thought of from the welcome basket , every possible Utensil you might need, lovely toiletries to towels & treats left for our dog . The odd days that were wet (even though we managed to get out )when we came back it was a fight for the window seat , just to take in the views of the gardens and land around the house . Thank you for allowing us to use your beautiful Coach House for our holiday we will be back .
Thank you for the lovely feedback. We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay and it is a pleasure to share this special place with guests. Looking forward to seeing you again, Helen and Graham.

"This property's biggest asset is its owners."
They seem to have thought of everything, the whole house has everything you need and more. A great and secure garden for the dogs, a poo bin too.
Lovely lush towels, bedding and even face flannels too. The beds are super comfy as are the sofa's its nice and warm and the showers are great as well.
A holiday is what you make it but Helen and Graham have ensured that your accommodation is perfect. Zero complaints from us, a pure 10/10 experience.

"This is a cottage that has everything that you could possibly need for a perfect break in this lovely area."
It was scrupulously clean and comfortable and the furnishings and equipment are of a high standard. It was a luxury to have both king-sized bedrooms with their own en-suite showers and toilets. The very large enclosed garden for the exclusive use of the cottage guests is extremely secure and is a lovely place to relax if the weather allows. Graham and Helen are friendly and welcoming but not intrusive in any way although they were on hand if needed. Both ourselves and our 2 dogs have had an excellent week in spite of some inclement weather. Returning to the cottage after some very satisfying walks always felt like coming "home."
Thank you so much for a great review! We are delighted that you both had a lovely week and that you felt comfortable and at home in The Coach House. We love sharing this special place with others and we hope to see you again some time. Best wishes, Helen and Graham.

"Just back from a lovely couple of days staying at the cosy, home from home that is 'the coachouse'."
The weather was kind to us, so we had our lunch in the dappled shade of the enclosed garden, which was great for the dog. There is everything you need in the cottage, and more, in the welcome pack with great fresh eggs and Helen's lovely home baking. The village is a short stroll away with the lovely river esk, which the dog and young granddaughter had loads of fun, children's play area was also great. Had had a busy couple of months so our time at the coach house was a perfect place to relax..

"The Coach House was an extremely comfortable, clean and well equipped."
Graham and Helen were great hosts and were there to great us when we arrived and showed us where everything was. Lovely welcome basket with fresh eggs. Canonbie has some lovely local walks and the dogs loved their morning visits to the river Esk which was so handy to get to from the house. Ideally situated to explore the Scottish Borders, Reiver trails and venture down to the Lakes. There is a secure garden for the dogs next to the property. Would highly recommend.

The hosts were fab, very helpful and friendly. They welcomed us and showed us around. They had provided a hamper with all the little bits you would need to start your stay happily, plus some extra treats that were a delightful touch. They were really kind to my son and asked if he would like to collect some eggs from the chickens - lovely, lovely people!
We did some great walks from the coach house - the scenery was amazing and local people very friendly. Would love to come back if they would have us.

"The property and hosts were fabulous."
Some really beautiful little touches around the property. I enjoyed the farm eggs and the eco conscious products provided. I had dogs with me and there was provision of food bowls and dog treats.
The location was a gateway to many wonderful walks. I even went to the Lake District one day. I cooked every night and found the kitchen to be substantial. For a walking holiday with a cosy peaceful place as our base it was perfect. The dogs were exhausted but very content.
Thanks for the lovely review Jane. It was great to have you, your friend and the dogs here and we are so glad you enjoyed it. Hope to see you again some time. Thanks for choosing to stay with us.

"A beautiful cottage, scrupulously clean and comfy, it has everything you could need for a holiday cottage."
Owners are very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. The gardens around the cottage are great for dogs and the bird population is huge, if you are a twitcher you are in heaven here. Locals are very friendly too and its only a short walk to the little post office/shop, a pub with a roaring fire but at the time no food, wrong season.
Thank you for the lovely feedback. We are very grateful to live in such a beautiful place and love sharing it with guests and their dogs.
It was great to have you as our first guests on Sykes Cottages and we hope you will come again sometime.
