"The property is set in a great location with walks from the house and nearby."
Enjoyed walking into Peebles, the local hills, Go Ape, Botanical Gardens and a trip to Edinburgh. The property is extremely well equipped and we had everything we needed. Great to have a bathroom for each bedroom when you’re staying in large groups. Would definitely recommend to others.

"Lovely house, well equipped and exceeded our expectations in all areas."
All rooms were clean and presentable with good water pressure for the showers and hot water. The grounds were very tidy and the grass cut allowing us to maximise the garden space. Could not really fault this retreat for our family holiday. The owners were a lovely couple who had equipped the home well and with plenty of local information to make our stay comfortable and to maximise our day trips to see the interesting towns closely. A thoroughly and memorable holiday, thank you to Arran & John.

"We were a multi-generation family staying at Tor View and we had everything we could possibly need for a brilliant stay, plus a whole lot more!"
Arran met us on arrival and showed us around, and also left us a brilliant selection of goodies to enjoy!
The accommodation was immaculate, with a great range of facilities and plenty of cups, glasses and crockery! The herbs/spices were a lovely extra touch.
The photos really don't do it justice.
It was also the perfect location to explore the Scottish Borders (and further afield) and there are lovely walks in all directions from the house itself.
The garden was also lovely, with a great space for our two dogs to run round and for us all to sit out in.
Would highly recommend and may very well come back soon ourselves!

"Great stay, good location with easy access to local walks."
Good facilities in the house, especially each bedroom having it’s own bathroom (although a few extra hairdryers would be useful!). The only thing lacking is a separate dining room - there’s not one big dining table seating 12 and it gets cramped in the kitchen when everyone’s seated and people are serving and clearing up. But overall we had a great stay.

"Great location."
Lovely welcome pack and touches in the property. Well stocked kitchen plates glasses etc.
The weather was very kind to us so we had some lovely walks directly from the cottage with ospreys to watch on the way.
Everyone was happy with their rooms and ensuites. All rooms are of good size so no one ended up in a boxroom that so often happens in some properties. Would come again.

"The house was lovely and spacious, bigger than the pictures."
The bed was a bit firmer than mine but still comfortable. High quality bedding, soft towels and nice pillows. Extra touches that you don’t get in some self catering properties, like loo paper, bubble bath, ear buds, cotton pads, dishwasher and washing machine tablets. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need to cook a meal with and added extras like a blender and scales. The garden was great, my Labrador was in his element

"A brilliant find for our daughter's first Christmas with all the family."
A very well stocked kitchen with everything you could need to prepare meals for 12 people, including a triple slow cooker! The living room accommodated us perfectly and it had been decorated beautifully for Christmas. Lots of comfy seating and a great fire which we were able to have going every day as the owner kept us stocked up on logs and kindling! Great location for lovely walks and getting into Peebles. The owners were really friendly and helpful and made us feel very welcome including providing us with a very generous welcome pack of goodies. We would 100% come here again. Thank you!!

"This is a beautiful cottage loads of space and done to a high standard."
Enclosed large paddock for dogs. Beautiful countryside short drive to Peebles. Owners are lovely couldn’t be more helpful. They live adjoined to the other part of the cottage not a problem for us but maybe if wanted loud music playing. We will definitely be back. Cottage has everything u need but may need to take speaker for music. It’s sat right next to the river and the owners have made it a beautiful place to sit. We thoroughly enjoyed the stay can’t recommend enough

"This was a brilliant house, suitable for families or 6 couples as 4 en suite bedrooms, 2 more bedrooms a full bathroom and shower room + a separate WC."
Fully equipped kitchen with everything you need. Only problem is that almost all of the cupboards are full of crockery and equipment with little room left to store your food. Otherwise it was great and the owners on site were helpful and friendly but easy to forget they are there as they did not interfere but there if needed. They even opened a completely enclosed paddock for us to let the dog have a run around. The weather could have been better but we can’t complain about anything else.

"Just returned from a week at Torview House with my family (10 of us)."
Torview House is beautiful. In a stunning setting only a few miles outside of Peebles. The house is clean, very comfortable and so so quiet. Gardens are huge - ideal for my four year old grandson to run around in and play games! The owners have provided everything you need for a self catering stay in the property. We will definitely be returning!

"Just returned from a fantastic holiday in Torview House, Peebles."
The house stands in beautiful gardens, providing ample place for relaxing and contains everything you need - the welcome pack on arrival was brilliant. It is laid out with the bedrooms set slightly apart from the living areas and all to a very high standard. The extensive size of the house allowed us to meet up with all the family in exceptional circumstances.
Peebles and surrounding area has plenty to do and see - we had wonderful days out at Dawyck Garden centre and Kailzie Gardens.
You can reach the house by car, bus and train.
We had a wonderful time and left with such happy memories.

"The layout of Torview was excellent."
The bedrooms were away from the living area so there was no disturbance in the evening.
The grounds of the property were well kept and the secret river dell was great.
Only 7 minutes by car to Peebles.
Bats! The children enjoyed seeing bats from their bedroom window every night at dusk.
The owners were excellent hosts. We will visit again.

"Stunning property and excellent host."
We had a fantastic three days staying at the property and exploring the area. Many things to see and do in the area. We came to do the mountain bike trials and were not disappointed. After travelling from Manchester to Fort William and then to Skye we stayed here for three days on our way home. The host kept in touch with us prior to arrival via email and greeted us on arrival. They went out of their way to arrange for us to have jet wash available to clean our bikes when we returned from a days riding. The property is stunning in a beautiful area. We will definitely be returning. Thank you very much we really enjoyed our stay.
