Summary: Stay was amazing, comfortable and cosy. Everything we expected and more. We lucked out with some lovely sunny weather for the end of October, lovely area with lots to see and do for all ages. Thank you Gail for all your pre- planning it was very helpful.

David N. Oct 6, 2024 05:53:32 PM

Summary: The property is exceptional! Every single thing you could want or wish for are included. Similar properties often require purchasing a few bits and pieces mostly for the kitchen, but we had no such issues here and the welcome packs for us and our dog were a very generous extra! The property is cozy and comforting a proper home from home, the garden is also exceptional with plenty of room for our dog to have a run and stretch his legs. Communication with the host was perfect and they could not have done more for us! Set in a lovely village the property is the perfect base for exploring the surrounding border towns or heading over to the east coast beaches etc. Highly recommended!

Summary: We had a lovely time at The Old Smithy. Gail was exceptional with making us feel we were at home. She made sure we had everything we needed. Gail went over and above to ensure we were happy. As far as making our granddaughter have good fun in the garden. I am sure we will be back at some stage. Thank you Gail for all you have done.

Summary: The owners have thought of everything in this beautiful place! We had a great stay!

Sarah C. Aug 12, 2023 04:02:38 PM

Summary: Beautiful, clean and well-equipped cottage in a lovely garden. Great views, over the river to fields beyond. Location perfect for us. Easy to get to lots of pretty towns and estates by car, with dog walks on the doorstep. Occasional traffic noise in the main room - but you'd expect a blacksmith to be near a road - and the bedrooms are quiet. Very enthusiastic and welcoming property manager. Thoughtful welcome package for us and the dog, including dog towels that came in very handy. Gail was brilliant keeping in touch after we left and returning a scarf I had forgotten. Good internet access at the cottage. Some mobile signal issues indoors, as might be expected in a stone-built property. We didn't find this impaired our holiday. The large main room was great for cooking, eating and socialising as a family and I appreciated the very well-organised kitchen drawers. Overall a great place to stay.

Summary: Clean well laid out property. Beautifully situated in lovely grounds. Hosts very helpful and welcoming making our stay so enjoyable.

Anna B. Apr 19, 2023 07:43:13 PM

Summary: Really well equipped property, Gail is a super host who has thought of everything. Her little touches show her pride in the property and make you feel instantly welcome. Loads of room for a party of 6, I didn't take my dogs but they'd have loved it! The setting is beautiful but you really need a car to fully explore the area and make the most of what is on offer. Would highly recommend this property and this host

Summary: We had a excellent experience at The Smithy Cottage Gail was a superb host and the cottage had everything you needed and was spotless throughout Definitely recommend this place and will return

Allie M. Nov 13, 2022 08:32:25 PM

Summary: The Old Smithy has to be one of the nicest properties we’ve stayed in. Really spacious, beautifully clean and appointed with absolutely everything you could possibly need. A real home from home, and in an ideal location for a holiday based in the Scottish Borders. Thank you!

David W. Nov 8, 2022 03:20:11 AM

Summary: We stayed at this property for two nights in October. We were given a very warm welcome upon arrival and shown how to use all of the equipment within the cottage. The cottage was very well equipped with everything you'd need and more. The welcome hamper and delicious cake in the fridge were an added bonus. The garden was immaculate and absolutely beautiful - our dogs and toddlers very much enjoyed playing in it. After staying in many cottages over the years this one was the cleanest we have ever stayed in - it was absolutely immaculate with not a single fault to be found. Whilst here we enjoyed trips into Kelso and found walking along the river bank beautiful and peaceful. We hope to come back again in the future.
