Testimonial 1

Too many times rental properties are never a home from home, a bit worn and shabby with cheap and sparse kitchen facilities or random odd furniture. Not here. The quality of the accommodation is as high quality as the friendly welcome from Gail and Adrian. We had a fabulous time. Highly recommend.

Testimonial 2

Just returned home from our second visit to The Old Smithy Cottage. This cottage never disappoints and is a wonderful place to stay and visit the Scottish Borders. Adrian and Gail are the perfect hosts and have thought of everything to truly make this a “home from home.” The decor and furnishings are impeccable and the thoughtful extras provided on arrival make the stay all the more enjoyable and memorable. Highly recommend a visit!

The Old Smithy is a fantastic place to stay. Well equipped and comfortable accommodation, maintained to a high standard, and the ideal location to get to numerous locations and attractions. Gail and Adrian are the perfect hosts with all the little extra touches making the stay perfect. They even went above and beyond when we needed a wheelchair, which they managed to source quickly for us - as I said before perfect hosts! ❤ x
