15 Bogan

A beautiful cottage, the other residents in Bogan were very friendly, can't fault the place - looking at dates for next year.

Denis & Gaby.

A fantastic place to stay, clean and tidy with very comfortable bed and furniture, well equipped throughout.

Quiet area with lots to do in the area. Great facilities in the village.

The cottage is lovely, clean well equipped.

The only drawback and as far as I am concerned a big one. The back garden is NOT completely enclosed. There are about 40ish stairs (with no gate at the top) which are very slippy and are covered in knee high weeds!

Very comfortable accommodation in quiet lane with parking.

The cottage is well laid out, beautifully clean, well supplied, and I cannot stress enough how helpful the owner was when a problem occurred.

Was very happy with the stay. Only sorry that I ddin't see the Sykes instructions to leave the bed linen and towels in the bathroom until after we'd left. >_

What a delightful experience staying in this beautiful cottage.

The facilities were excellent with lovely views at to the rear including lots of wild life. the owner was very helpful. A roaring fire made evenings warm and cozy. Would highly recommend. (we'll be going back!!)

Lovely cottage out of the way and very quiet.

Well looked after and beautifully furnished. We will be back.

A perfect mix of old and new.

Everything you could need in the kitchen. Living room was warm and cosy, loved the log burner! Our dog loved the garden, spent lots of time sniffing around. Great walks, good local pub with nice food and a handy shop all close by. Would definitely recommend.

Everything was good.

Comfortable Would have liked a hand rail for getting in and out of bath/ shower. & probably a brighter light in the lounge. Really enjoyed our stay. Definitely want to stay there again

A very enjoyable stay.

The cottage was clean and well maintained and the bedroom very comfortable. The shower and bathroom were in good order. The kitchen was well equipped and the only problem was the poor ceiling lighting which made working there difficult. Similarly, the lighting in the sitting room was poor and made reading difficult.

As other people have said, a visitors book was missing.

Always good to have tips for walks, etc. We didn't have to use the fire, but nice to know it was there if needed. Our elderly collie loved the garden, flew down the steps but found he couldn’t get back up unaided!

We have had a lovely stay at Bogan!

Really comfortable, clean and with very pretty surroundings Love this area and wee would love to stay here again Thank you

Thank you so much for letting us stay at your lovely cottage.

We have recommended it to the in-laws so hopefully they will be booking soon. The garden at the back leads on to a lovely wood. Lots of short walks around the cottage and about 20 minute walk to the beach. We have had a lovely time. Thank you.

Disappointed no welcome pack, not even a pint of milk.

Tea, coffee & sugar provided, but couldn’t actually have a drink and shop closed! No visitor book provided to get other people’s “top tips” or leave feedback. The minimal info provided contained out of date leaflets 2022/23, plus inaccurate shop opening times etc. The bathroom door sticks, daughter needed rescuing (good job we were in at the time)

The second time we have stayed and both times we have a most enjoyable and comfortable stay.

While the property is beautiful, very clean, very comfortable with everything you could need to enjoy the holiday, including the seating area in the garden.

However there was an issue with the bathroom door. If you close the door when using the bathroom you get locked in and it is quite a struggle to open the door to get out of the bathroom. I was lucky my husband was with me as I had to bang the door and call him to let me out. Not good at all, the door just needs to be planed down, which would sort the issue, costing next to nothing to sort, but saving the issue of being locked in the bathroom. Apart from that the property was extremely beautiful.

I fell in love with your charming cottage - it’s so homely and the decor is gorgeous.

It’s in a quiet backwater yet handy for the centre of Coldingham. We enjoyed the walk down to Milldown Bay and hope to return to explore some of the other local footpaths. The wildlife was fab and we were lucky to see dolphins too. Thank you!

Beautiful cottage in a stunning location.

Our family of four absolutely loved our week staying here. Easy reach of the bay, lovely walks through to St Abbs. The buoy swing over the stream was both my children’s favourite thing. Beautifully decorated. Had everything we needed. Sitting outside first thing having breakfast listening to the birds was my favourite. The living room was lovely to snuggle down in the evenings. Dishwasher and washer dryer were great. Comfortable beds and fluffy white towels. Would stay again and again.

The bathroom door sticks and the design of the handle makes it difficult to get a grip to pull it open.

I had to shout for my husband to push it.

A beautifully maintained and decorated cottage.

The style and finish made this feel like a very luxurious stay. The location was wonderful in that we could see deer and birds from the decking and it felt like being in the middle of the country (the birdsong was awesome) but a short walk/cycle to the sea. The beach also had a sense of peace about it as well as charm. Every room was well equipped and spotless.

A very comfortable and well equipped cottage with lots of creative touches.

Thank you.

The cottage was beautiful and very cosy, amazing standards of upkeep upon entry, nice connections to nature and reflected through the rustic decor.

It was lovely and spacious and the neighbours were also very kind to us.

It was great to return to 15 Bogan and relax.

What more would you want, well equipped, clean cottage, ideal location to explore the local area.

Charming accommodation, well provisioned and maintained.

Set in a lovely, quiet location with a shop and a pub. The beach was a short walk away with access to water activities and coastal walks. There is easy access to towns and historic places of interest. We really enjoyed our stay here and would recommend it to anyone wanting a relaxing break away from it all, yet still within reach of towns and amenities.

Lovely, stylish and comfortable cottage on a wonderful row of cottages within easy reach of the village amenities and with the beach just a comfortable walk away- although the beach has plenty parking nearby if you’d rather drive there.

We had a great time. Having the stove was an added bonus even in summertime given this year’s interesting weather!

We have stayed in many holiday cottages and this was one of the best comfortable clean and well equipped in a great situation and would highly recommend it as a good base to explore the area

36 glasses taking up valuable cupboard space probably intended for visitors food.

The couches are not the most comfortable and with the shower over bath unit, with it being a high step into the bath, we think there should be a handle on the wall aiding to get in and out of the bath. Despite these issues we still enjoyed our stay with you.

First time at number 15 and we felt at home straight away.

We loved the style of the cottage and it made the most of it’s location. Well equipped with everything nearby in the village.

Lovely property, very comfortable and in a great location.

Was a bit chilly at first but once we got the fire going and the heating sorted, it was cosy. Would recommend

Great cottage in quiet location.

Lovely big kitchen had plenty of utensils/crockery etc. Spacious bedroom and comfy bed. Cottage is handy for shop and pubs. Local beach only 15 min walk away, with an excellent tearoom. For the more adventurous there are great cliffside walks to either Eyemouth or St Abbs. Definitely recommend.

I found the bath plug did not stay put and I needed to put my heel on it.

Apart from that the cottage was a delightful place to stay in and it was exactly the sort of place I would buy if I was moving. Everything was clean, the furniture was just what we needed and the bed was so comfy. On leaving we found the 3 tins on a cupboard in the kitchen contained tea, coffee and sugar. Complete surprise. If you have not used an induction hob before I advise you to google how to use it. Overall perfect. THANK YOU

It is a lovely cottage and we enjoyed our stay.

But we would have to agree with other feedback that the couches are not very comfortable.

The only issue we had were the silver door handles on the upstairs rooms.

They were incredibly stiff and on several occasions someone got stuck in the bathroom and had to shout to get the door pushed open from the other side. We resorted to using the bathroom with the door open a bit! Otherwise no issues. Beautiful house. Ready good location.

The cottage is absolutely wonderful.

Very comfy and clean throughout. Really tucked away. Feels very secluded whilst being in walking distance of a local take away (which serves gluten free), two pubs that serve food and the beach cove a bit further walk away or a very short drive away. The cottage garden is really lovely. We were enjoyed sitting out on the deck. There is a small burn (stream) down and the bottom of the garden accessible if you don't mind a steep climb. The village is quaint and worth exploring down the raised wooden paths besides the burn that runs through the village. I really don't have anything negative to say about the cottage. It a real gem of a place.

The owner should really consider replacing the sofas and other chairs in the cottage, as NONE of them were comfortable to sit in for any length of time.

Additional table lamps would benefit guests with vision impairment. The step out the patio door from the kitchen is excessively long and deep. The door would benefit from placing a raised step on the outside.

When we arrived the cottage was clean and there is everything you needed.

The bedrooms are light and airy and the beds are extremely comfortable. We found the sofas in the living room not so inviting though and therefore spent most of our evenings in the kitchen. The little garden at the back could be lovely if only it was maintained better. The decking had not been swept and the trees were over hanging and needed cutting back to let some more of the glorious sunshine in that we had whilst there. There is a new rattan sofa and chairs which are comfortable but the old table and chairs (which were too rickety to sit on) were still there and looked unsightly. It was the same with the front garden. There were 2 chairs that were too old to sit on. There did seem to be a welcome basket too, but it hadn't been refilled which was a shame. However, we did enjoy our stay and its a great base for exploring the surrounding area and the weather was great.

the cottage was lovely.

i cleaned marks on the wall and doors left by someone else. the garden was dangerous for me lots of fallen leaves and i suffer with my knees. my husband had to sweep them up before i could go out there. it was a lovely quiet cottage and area but the sofas were not comfortable. the beds on the other hand were very comfy. there was everything you could need in the kitchen

Overall I had a lovely week at the cottage.

Beach not too far away although would take car if children very small as its all uphill on the way back. The cottage was spotlessly clean and the kitchen was really well equipped with everythingyou might need to cater for your family dinners, even the knives were sharp, something I have found lacking in most holiday homes. Beds were really comfortable too. I lost the front door key on my first day there and the owner could not have been more helpful and understanding. The only negative is the seating. Sofas were fine for the kids but I found them impossible to sit on for any length of time. There are also ercol chairs and small ercol couch in the kitchen but again, although these look nice, they are not fit for relaxing into. I spent most of my time sitting at kitchen table. There is nice comfortable garden furniture which I used while my grandchildren played outside, it's unfortunate that the old garden furniture hasn't been removed as this really limits the outside space especially if you want to make use of the outside washing line as I did to hang wet suits etc. However the cottage is in a beautiful quiet location and is a great base for the beach at coldingham and surrounding areas. Better sofas to lounge in would make this property perfect.

Loved our stay the only thing I would recommend is new sofas and better dryer.

Other than that perfect!

Lovely clean well equiped cottage in a quiet location.

Problem encountered on first night with hot water was sorted within 24 hours with no further issues. Hamper with tea, coffee, sugar, marshmallows and crisps was welcomed. Lovely coastal walks with beautiful views.

We had a great time staying in a lovely cottage.

Hot water from the kitchen tap and the heating were minor issues. Overall, we enjoyed our stay!

Fabulous cottage in a great location.

Really enjoyed the stay and would love to revisit it.

We had a lovely stay in Coldingham.

The cottage was so cosy to come back to after a walk to the beach or exploring the nearby area. The kitchen was well equipped - and the dining table was perfect for jigsaw puzzles.

We had very nice stay, cottage was clean and cosy, bed lovely ,however sofas need replacing but tired and not very comfortable .

It would be very useful to have an outside light or torch for night time. We meant to leave a note about rain coming down staircase wall after Friday night after bad weather. We would return but hopefully with better weather.

Lovely location, lovely cottage.

Very spacious cottage with seperate large kitchen and large lounge both well provided for.

Very efficient solid fuel stove for heating with plenty of wood and fuel provided. Lovely private decking area, sun at breakfast time. Cottage is in a very quiet position in the village with the coastline 15 mins walk away. Had an excellent week here, mostly spent out of the cottage with the wonderful weather but lovely place to hunker down if the weather is adverse. Only slight downside is the settees could be more comfortable!

We had a lovely holiday in Coldingham.

The cottage was excellent, so well laid out and had everything you could possibly need. Spotlessly clean as well. The private rear garden was beautiful and the welcome package was much appreciated. It is in a very peaceful and relaxing setting. We would definitely book the cottage again.

The property is lovely, we all enjoyed our stay, and so close to some real hidden treasures like St Abbs and Eyemouth.

The only thing i would like to note would be if the owner could install a grab rail in the bath / shower so that you have something to hold onto when getting in / out of the bath / shower. Other than that would definately book this property again.

Lovely property in a lovely area.

The reason we would be unlikely to return is as follows: We left our dog in the kitchen area with doors closed to go for lunch. This property should not advertise as dog friendly as they are over strict. We have stayed in numerous cottages that are dog friendly and have never been informed that dogs can’t be left for short periods. Obviously on holiday you expect to go for meals. Main issue was the owners accessing the property without our prior knowledge and without us in attendance. This is completely unacceptable and has never happened in any previous stays in cottages. Our personal belongings were out in the open and this really put a dampener on the final days in the cottage. The cottage is lovely but we will not be back for the above reasons and would not recommend this to others purely down to the owners actions stated above.

The kitchen was lovely but lighting could be better.

Difficult to get comfy on the sofas. Great house in a great place for a holiday.

All very good.

We weren't expecting such low ceilings. I was just about OK (6'3'') but our son would have had to bend down in all areas of the cottage ground floor. It might be something worth including in the description.

The accommodation and location were both good and bedrooms comfortable.

However, the sofas were very uncomfortable and made it very hard to relax in an evening. The outdoor furniture badly needed replaced too. The shower was not very easy to get in / out of. We would definitely rate this cottage more highly and consider revisiting if it had new sofas and outdoor furniture!

Our stay in Coldingham was so enjoyable.

We all loved the sun deck out the back and the children loved the swing over the burn. The local recreation ground was only a five minute walk away, so the children had a safe place to play. The thoughtful hamper of goodies, left in anticipation of our arrival, was most appreciated. The stock of fuel for the wood burner was immense. We also appreciated the items in the store for us to take to the beach. The whole experience was so peaceful. This was possibly the easiest holiday we have taken; all we had to do was relax and enjoy the local area.

We had a great holiday at the cottage we would go back.

The only thing we found was the seating in the living room could have been more comfortable and the garden furniture could do with a little TLC The cottage was immaculate and the beds wee very comfortable, the welcome was appreciated. Lots of places to go and great walks

Lovely cottage , in a very good location ,within travelling distant of a lot of good places to visit , had a relaxing week really enjoyed our stay and look forward to staying there again .
