Mr Swain August 2020

“This is the best cottage we have been to ever.”

The cottage sits all on its own with amazing countryside views and the comfort of this cottage were outstanding as is the Customer service provided by the owners (including a great welcome pack) which was also outstanding. If you ever want to leave this relaxing cottage with beautiful views for day tours you are pretty close to everything as regards to attractions being in Jedburgh. We had a fantastic week here did not want to come home!!! Thanks Sharon and Jim

Mrs Swallow February 2020

“Todlaw is a beautiful house - more like a home from home rather than a rental cottage.”

This is the second time we have visited. The owners are lovely and both times left us a wonderful hamper for our arrival. They even popped round to check we were ok during the storms! Would highly recommend. Some friends popped up to see us for a night and they have already recommended this house to their other friends too.

A HAMPER FULL OF GOODIES, SPACIOUS, FACILITIES, GREAT

- Mrs Baxter, December 2019
Mr Murray December 2019

“Fabulous cottage, plenty of space, very comfortable, loved the views from the cottage.”

The Jedburgh walk that passed the cottage was also very enjoyable. Our friends who joined us for new year would come back to the cottage having thoroughly enjoyed their stay. We visited The Canon in Jedburgh, which we would recommend, very friendly landlady and also dog friendly. Can also recommend a short walk from Harestanes visitors centre to The Waterloo monument (Peniel Heugh), can also advise getting the key (£5) from the Lothian Estates office in Bonjedward to gain access to the tower. (228 steps to the top )

“This cottage is so much more than just a cottage !”

! Secluded yet only a 20 minute walk in to Jedburgh. Lovely huge farmhouse kitchen with everything you could need. A huge living room and three en-suite bedrooms. The garden is also great for dogs with lovely peaceful views. We loved it !

- Mrs Graham, May 2019
Dr Mason May 2019

“Todlaw Farmhouse occupies a beautiful location with delightful views.”

It is sufficiently rural to be absolutely tranquil yet close enough to Jedburgh to be very convenient for local amenities. There are many wonderful places to visit within an hour's travelling time. You only need to be here for one single day to completely forget the stresses of work and that is its most enviable quality.

- Dr Mason, May 2019

“Our best cottage rental booking yet!”

We use Sykes Holiday Cottages a lot for holidays and short breaks in the Borders. Todlaw Farm House is a real find and one we plan to return to. The location is fantastic for peace and quiet and amazing views. The photo showing what looks like neighbouring properties are unused outbuildings so you do have the whole place to yourself and being able to use the bridal path to walk into Jedburgh was a pleasant and added bonus. The owners provided a generous welcome pack full of delicious treats and a vase of delightful spring flowers. The house itself is spacious and immaculate with the perfect balance of traditional and modern decor. We were most comfortable and wanted for nothing. This is a really lovely property and we would have no hesitation in recommending it to family and friends.

“5*”

We booked this for my mum's 60th birthday and what a find it was! It's a very spacious cottage and clearly very well looked after. I've stayed in a few cottages and this is the cleanest I've stayed in. We had a welcome hamper on arrival which was a very nice surprise to receive. The owner contacted my mum to check we had arrived okay (as it was quite late in the day) which I felt was an extra that was considerate of the owner. Although the cottage is in Jedburgh, it's location means it's not too far away from civilisation, but you feel like the sheep in the field are your only company for miles. Bliss! I would definitely recommend this cottage

- NickyP1983, March 2019
Mrs Pawson March 2019

“Todlaw farmhouse is a home from home Set in beautiful countryside with only sheep as neighbours.”

It has everything that is needed for a relaxing stay, and if you need to get away from the hustle and bustle of life look no further.

- Mrs Pawson, March 2019
Mr Cage March 2019

“A wonderful, extremely spacious well presented house in tranquil surroundings within easy reach of the Kielder Forest, Hadrian's Wall, Lindisfarne, Edinburgh and every place in between.”

When you arrive it looks large but as you enter the house you experience the Tardis effect, the place is extremely roomy and well equipped. The welcome pack was astounding with homemade marmalade tray bakes, local cheese, bread and even some treats for the dog. The kitchen has everything you could wish for whilst the living and bedrooms are extremely comfortable. The house sits elevated overlooking a peaceful valley with large gardens There is no traffic noise and it is only a short walk down the bridle path into the town. This Farm House is a credit to Sharon & Jim and we thank you for providing such a wonderful experience.

- Mr Cage, March 2019
Mr Frankland January 2019

“This is by far the best holiday accommodation we have ever had the pleasure to stay in.”

The house was wonderful, big, very well equipped with everything you could possibly need or want. The cleanliness was outstanding and all in all we had a terrific time in the Scottish Borders. The owners even provided a really fantastic hamper full of very welcome goodies. The boys (2 small doggies) had also been thought of with a welcome pack of goodies just for them!! From beginning to end, this experience has fuelled us to have many more breaks. I hope other guests treat this house with respect and love as it is very clear that the owners go out of their way to make sure it is a real home from home. The views from the property give you a real sense that you are in the countryside. The weather was very kind to us which really was the icing on the cake. Alan, Lin, Billy & Rufus

Mr Armitage December 2018

“Todlaw farm is in a class of its own,the facilities are brilliant and the location is outstanding (especially if you have dogs),however what made this holiday outstanding is the the little extras like the hamper of goodies left out for us on arrival, I would highly recommend this place to anyone,thanks to Jim and Sharon for a very memorable new year.”

Cheers Paul,Jules,Pete,Petra and of course the 2 dogs Darcy and Tessa who had a brilliant time.

Miss Thomson November 2018

“It was a wonderful holiday and we were sad to leave.”

Will definitely consider another booking at Todlaw. Wonderful home and beautiful views. We felt very welcome by the owners. We had booked the house for my 30th birthday and on arrival was a birthday card from Jim and Sharon, including a bottle of win and other lovely treats. It was such a wonderful and memorable weekend.

allystanb October 2018

“Fabulous”

From arriving here we were in total disbelief of how fabulous this farm house was Beautifully decorated immaculate everything you needed for a wonderful stay in this magical hide away. We had two dogs with us, whom were very sad to leave great scope for walks a massive garden no through traffic and a doggy hamper to welcome them. We toured Jedburgh ate in the Capon Tree and visited the little cafes and bistros it had to offer. But we do have to mention the local butcher. What a great display he had, and we suggest to anyone going to Todlaw he is worth a visit or two. Jedburgh is full of great little shops so shopping was easy a well worth the walk which only took us just under 15min to do. The welcome hamper that we received on arrival was astounding homemade marmalade tray bakes local cheese bread and more. We would not hesitate to say this is the perfect house to stay if your visiting the Scottish Borders. So much so we have already booked again for next year. This Farm House is a credit to this couple, as much as we want you to remain busy we hope there will always be a week or so left for us.Thank you Sharon & Jim Dr A&S Baxter

“Amazing”

Todlaw was everything you could ask for and mor this is a large house but with a warm feeling it has been beautifully decorated throughout and 100% on cleanliness the welcome hamper is filled with fantastic homemade delights to start you off. We were a private booking of 5 and will definitely be back the information book in the house gave you a great start as well as everyone who had stayed before us leaving notes on where and what to try. Absolutely Excellent Thank you Jim&Sharon it was a very special stay.

Dr Mason August 2018

“Todlaw Farmhouse exceeded our expectations.”

It enjoys a wonderfully tranquil location with marvellous views yet is within a short distance of the amenities in Jedburgh. It was the perfect location for us. The property is extremely comfortable, tastefully furnished and presented with a high standard of cleanliness. The Welcome Basket of comestibles was much appreciated. It was a delight to sit outside in the evenings looking down on the large pond/small lake below and watching the swifts skimming across its surface and the surface of the neighbouring fields. We enjoyed our stay so much that we have already booked it for a week next May. It should perhaps be made clearer on the directions that you need to approach the access lane from the Jedburgh direction and not attempt to make a left turn if approaching from the south. This is a minor niggle; it's a tremendous property for those seeking comfort, peace and quiet.
