Mrs Gilbertson June 2019

“Well, just back last evening after a week at Braeside Cottage, I was sorry to leave, the cottage was absolutely lovely, everything one would need was provided.”

...Sue couldn't have been more helpful...even a wee text to make sure we had settled in.... The garden is beautiful, I used to sit and read in the evenings dogs by my feet asleep...it was heaven! If you're going soon, don't touch the composter, I think there's a bees nest in it!! But they will move on hopefully ... The position is ideal for the village, a great butcher just five minutes away, scrumptious Pork sausages...everything lovely. Wendy at the garage also was so very helpful to me....everyone met you with a cheerie 'Hello, ' There is a lovely riverside walk not five minutes away....the dogs loved it.. Your not far from Hawick and Melrose....where the abbey is simply stunning, mind we had super weather but my wellingtons and wet coat were at hand if needed...always pack them especially if going to the borders... Thanks so much Sue.... This is one cottage I'm DEFINATELY returning too... Margaret..Lucy .Mac and Flora... June 2019.

About the location

DENHOLM

Hawick 4.8 miles; Jedburgh 6 miles.

The small village of Denholm sits in Teviotdale in the River Teviot valley. Only 16 miles from the English border, it nestles between the surrounding hills of Ruberslaw and the Minto Hills. The prehistoric earliest inhabitants of Denholm date from 2000-3000 years ago and there is evidence of Roman occupation in the countryside around the village. The early hamlet of Denum was destroyed during 16th century English raids and the current village, planned around the green, dates from the 17th century. In the centre of the green is a statue to Dr John Leyden, erected in 1861, and it honours this poet and orientalist who was born in the village. Today Denholm is a conservation area and the pleasing mix of pubs, café, bistro, butcher, vintage jewellery and antique shop and patrol station offer much to the visitor. A full range of amenities are available in Hawick and Jedburgh, which are both close by.
