Kelso is a stunning historic market town nestled in the Scottish borders, the largest square to be found here! This means that there’s so much to do, see and enjoy.
Of course, there’s also plenty of friendly people to make conversation with! Stroll through our cobbled streets, support our local shops and stop for a bite at some of our award-winning restaurants. When it comes to places to stay, we are in close proximity to the most popular attractions in our area: the ruined Abbey, the Kelso Racecourse and the Floors Castle and Gardens, to name a few.
But, enough about our amazing town! What about our amazing holiday home accommodation? Our Kelso Cottage is in close proximity to these wonders, yes, but the true attraction lies within our beautiful cottage.

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.
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
Fabulous place to stay. Always a warm welcome from Adrian & Gail who have thought of everything to make your stay perfect. Beautiful well equipped cottage, decorated to a very high standard set in a lovely location. Cannot fault it. Definitely recommend. Great base to explore the Scottish Borders.
Absolutely beautiful place to stay. Immaculately clean, everything is high quality and accommodation is very spacious. All you could need and more! The hosts are just wonderful and go above and beyond to make your stay special. We had the most amazing break with family. EXCELLENT!
