Fantastic short break location

The Stables was very well equipes, clean and tidy. Had we been at a warmer time of year, we would have made more use of the gardens. Great location for walking. Would recommend to anyone wanting to get away for a few days

Stunning location and lovely comfy property. Owners very welcoming. Some lovely walks right from the front door. Lots of wildlife and we were lucky to get the northern lights while we were there. Would love to return some day, and would highly recommend to anyone wanting to get away from it all,

Peaceful and beautiful! Fall asleep to the sound of the river. The kitchen is well-equipped and functional, and the lounge gave us plenty of room to spread out. We had access to a beautiful private garden as well. Note that there are very few services in Canonbie-the closest grocery stores are in Gretna.

An amazing find

The cottage is amazing and Julie is lovely. I stayed here while working in the area and will make this my first choice when looking for accommodation in the same area in the future. I think this might just be the best place I've stayed with work. Cant fault Julie, the cottage or the area at all.

Relaxing & peaceful get away

Large, clean and very well equipped property in a quiet rural area. Plenty of walks on the doorstep to suit all abilities. Lots of wildlife including nesting and roosting birds next to property.Plenty of pubs and restaurants within easy driving distance, also a Fish & Chip van which visits the village on a Friday evening (need to pre order and book collection time).Owners met us on arrival and were very friendly and helpful, we would definitely stay here again.

Peace and quiet

We really enjoyed our stay here. The cottage was lovely and welcoming, tastefully decorated and well equipped. The owners are obviously keen gardeners, so the view from the window was beautiful. There was a good choice of places to visit Abbotsford House, Threave House and gardens, to name but two. The weather was good for us, it usually isn’t, so that was definitely a bonus. We would recommend this area and property to anyone who doesn’t want to take the long drive to the Highlands.

Couldn’t wish for a lovelier home from home to stay in

This home is absolutely lovely. It’s airy and spacious and has everything you need for a holiday home. The welcome information was perfect and even some lovely treats, and milk in the fridge. The beds were comfortable and the cleanliness top notch. The home has an amazing garden to wander around and the location is perfect for Hadrian’s wall and various Roman fort and villa sites. Also it’s a stones throw from Gretna Green. Of course Carlisle is only a short drive away with its museum and Castle. Julie welcomed us personally. Lovely to meet you Julie and thank you for making our stay so enjoyable.
