Roberton Holiday Cottages

Stay at this charming stone cottage for a relaxing holiday in the serene Scottish Borders. The property is on the Branxholme Castle Estate and offers stylish accommodation for groups of up to four. You’ll have your own private hot tub and when you fancy stretching your legs, you’re welcome to explore the estate’s beautiful grounds. Beyond that, there are miles of walking and cycling routes to enjoy in the surrounding area, many of them without the need for a car. The inside is decorated in a traditional style, masterfully blending rustic allure with modern conveniences. You’ll be surrounded by plenty of natural materials like wood and leather, and neutral hues including cream and beige. Stylish touches like floral wallpaper, black-and-white photos and ornate lamps make you feel right at home. Everything is on the one floor at this peaceful abode, starting with the cosy lounge which has plenty of comfy seating, dual-aspect windows and a Smart TV. If it’s a little cold and dreich, light up the wood burner to make the space warm and homely. The farmhouse-style kitchen is perfect for prepping yummy dinners to tuck into at the dining table. When you’ve finished, retreat to the charming stone-built ‘bothy’ to spend a few hours before bed – this has its own bar, a dartboard, a wood burner and a Bluetooth sound system. When it's time to retire for the night, head to one of two beautifully decorated bedrooms – one with a king-size bed and the other featuring versatile zip-and-link twin beds. Both rooms are equipped with high-quality linen, a chest of drawers and plenty of hanging space. A shower room completes the cottage's interior. Outside, you’ll have a bubbling hot tub to rest those weary bones and a dedicated seating area that’s wonderful for al fresco breakfasts and evening meals, with delightful views over the surrounding hills.

Step straight into a fairytale when you choose this holiday retreat on the Scottish borders. Choose this impressive wing of a medieval castle to immerse yourself in mature gardens, woodland walks and evenings spent bubbling away in a private hot tub. This storybook stay sleeps eight guests and two dogs, making it perfect for large families or groups wanting to explore the Scottish landscapes. On the ground floor, guests are treated to a warm welcome in the hallway before making their way into the airy lounge/kitchen/diner. This enticing space offers guests the chance to put their feet up in front of the inviting wood burner and stream their favourite series on the Smart TV. The country kitchen is a chef's dream, with all the necessary amenities needed to produce a feast. Share meals around the adjoining table. Steal a few private moments with a novel in the cosy snug, or head on through to the games room where pool and darts can be enjoyed, surrounded by exposed stone walls. When it's time to turn in, follow the winding stone steps up the turret to the first floor, where four tastefully decorated bedrooms await. Three double bedrooms and one king-size bedroom feature crisp linens and Smart TVs for those lazy mornings. Finishing off this level is a family shower room and a stunning bathroom with a roll-top bath for long, bubbly soaks. Wake up to take a morning stroll in the estate's manicured grounds and woodland before grabbing some sweet treats from the Orangery and creating delicious breakfasts back at the house. Indulge in a steamy dip in the hot tub or unwind in the summerhouse with a bottle of fizz. Luxury is the epitome of this stay, thanks to the grounds' exquisite spa, with treatments and a steam room. Private parking is available for four cars.
