Brilliant stay
Brilliant stay on a sunny weekend. We went swimming at Lindean Loch and had a great dinner at number one in Selkirk which was a few minutes’ walk from the property. Really well presented house, very clean, beds were comfy, kitchen was well stocked and there’s a dishwasher. Would love to stay again

Spacious and comfortable!
Our family of four stayed for five days and saw historic sites all around the borders. We enjoyed the space and the ever changing view from the big windows. The photos can’t really show how spacious and bright it is at Five Turrets! Beautiful!

Great Christmas Stay
We did enjoy a very nice stay over Christmas at the Five Turrets. Our hosts prepared the place very nicely, even with two Christmas trees and helped out with good recommendations for the local butcher, fishing trips, etc. We did have a great time!
