"We had a wonderful stay here, late June / early July 25."
What a lovely home to enjoy! Clean, spacious, light and very well fitted out, with everything you need.
Lovely, friendly and helpful landlady; thank you for the very nice welcome goodies. Very much appreciated after a long journey!!
Lovely local walks, and a short drive to the beautiful coast line.
St Abbs Head, Eyemouth and Coldingham Bay are definitely worth a visit as are the more well known Berwick-upon-Tweed and Lindisfarne (Holy Island)
Absolutely marvellous stay!!

"Location is perfect for a quiet stay."
Helena's "welcome pack" was very gratefully received & a lovely touch with quality produce.
The Annex was extremely comfortable and equipped with all that we needed for our weeks stay.
Helena was available if needed her and checked with us to ensure we were fully catered for.
Would certainly recommend & rebook if visiting the Borders again.

"We enjoyed a lovely week in this very comfortable annexe and received a very warm welcome from the owner Helena."
The property was spotlessly clean with good quality bed linen and fluffy towels and there was a welcome pack with coffee, tea, milk, biscuits etc. The property is situated down a quiet narrow lane but you are not isolated and are soon onto a good road network for exploring the area. We loved seeing the swallows( or were they swifts?!) feeding their babies in the barns opposite the living room window.

"Dubh Sgeir Annex was perfect for our stay as we wanted a quite comfortable getaway."
Our host, Helena, was so friendly, easy to talk to and welcoming making our stay stress free and relaxing. The property was spotlessly clean, equipped with everything essential to our stay. The bed was argueably the most comfortable one we have slept on away from home.
We would certainly recommend Dubh Sgeir to any couple desiring a quiet getaway.
Many thanks again Helena.
It was lovely to meet you both. I really enjoyed our chats. Time just flew by while we talked.
I ordered the mattress from Premier Inn website. I always felt they were comfortable.
Thanks for booking my annex
