Fantastic house in the Scottish Borders. The house had a warm homely feel. Decorated and kitted out to a high standard. Very clean. Garden area lovely and private. Location handy for all local tourist amenities and walks. Would certainly recommend to others.

Lovely cottage, very comfortable and with a great enclosed garden. Fab pub in the village, lovely neighbours - couldn’t ask for more!

We had a lovely 3 night stay at Ivy cottage. It was so cosy and comfortable despite the rain! A beautiful kitchen with windows overlooking the garden to watch the garden birds and great wood burning stove for the evening. The bedrooms were cosy and very quiet at night time. We brought our border terrier with us and the handy porch for drying him off was a bonus so he didn't get the house dirty. We walked to Paxton house and had a morning at a nearby beach (20 min drive) which was lovely. We stayed Sunday to Wednesday and the only disappointing thing was the local pub is shut on a Monday and Tuesday so we didn't get to visit! Lucy was a very responsive host and answered any questions I had very promptly. Overall, a great stay and would definitely recommend.

We have just had 3 nights at Ivy Cottage. Lucy was excellent at answering all our questions and her recommendations were superb. We had dinner at the local pub the Cross inn twice as the food was amazing and the staff were great. We were able to take our dog into the pub and they gave her treats! The locals were very friendly. Ivy cottage is a little gem. Super clean and waiting for us were a little collection of goodies, Lucy had even bought an Easter Egg as it was over the Easter weekend. Super cosy with a huge basket of logs. Very dog friendly with a great enclosed garden. Walks around Paxton House and the river beyond the house were stunning, so quiet and peaceful, we walked up the river to the suspension Bridge that connects Scotland to England…. Absolutely stunning We visited Holy Island and Cocklawburn beach that Lucy had recommended, worth a visit as so quiet! We were very lucky to see the local deer and seals at holy Island and finished with a nice Beer in the local pub!

We spent a lovely couple of days there in low season (mid-February). Cottage was lovely, cosy and clean. Much better than most holiday cottages we've stayed in (we didn't need clean the place on arrival). It felt very homely and personal rather than a bland neutral holiday cottage. Which was great, as due to poor weather we spent a lot of time inside. Messaged with Lucy a couple of times, and she was a very friendly and responsive host. Even proactively reaching out to see if everything was going well during our stay. Would definitely recommend Ivy Cottage to others.
