FREE WIFI INTERNET A beautifully presented, light and airy, modern first floor holiday apartment in the village of Tweedbank in the Scottish Borders. Situated just two miles from the picturesque town of Melrose and a short walk from the River Tweed and Abbotsford House, the stunning home of Sir Walter Scott, it is an ideal starting point for exploring the towns of the Scottish Borders and the beautiful surrounding countryside. The apartment is within walking distance of Tweedbank railway station, and in under an hour you can be sightseeing in the heart of historic Edinburgh! It is also ideally located for fishing in the River Tweed, cycling and golf, and for visiting the many historic houses and castles in the area. Weavers Linn is surrounded by excellent walking country, with the Southern Upland Way and the Borders Abbeys Way passing through the village itself. The apartment sleeps four and has two bedrooms (one with a double bed and one with a king-size double zip and link, which can be converted into two 2' 6" beds on request), a fitted kitchen and a bathroom with bath and shower over. It has a spacious sitting room with a dining area and French doors leading to a Juliet balcony, with open views towards the hills beyond. The kitchen is fully equipped for all your self-catering needs with electric oven, induction hob, large fridge-freezer, microwave, washer/dryer and all glassware, cookware, crockery, and cutlery. Bed linen and towels are also provided. For your entertainment the apartment has a smart television, with inbuilt DVD player, which gives you access to BBC iPlayer, ITV Hub and other apps. There is also a CD player, iPod dock, and a selection of books, games and DVDs. The apartment has gas central heating, and fuel and power are included in the rent. There is off road parking for two cars. Only two minutes walk away is a local shop and restaurant/bar overlooking Gunknowe Loch, and there are many good restaurants in the surrounding area. Sorry, no pets and no smoking. NB the rate per night is variable depending on the time of year, please check the calendar for details.

ABBOTSFORD, the home of Sir Walter Scott, is less than a mile from Weavers Linn. The Visitor Centre, where you will find an exhibition of the life and times of Sir Walter Scott, restaurant, play trail and estate paths, is open all year round and free to access. The house and gardens are open from March to November. MELROSE lies in the Tweed Valley at the foot of the distinctive triple peaks of the Eildon Hills. Its ruined 12th century abbey, at one time probably the richest in Scotland, is the burial place of the casket believed to contain the heart of Robert the Bruce. Just along the road at St Boswells is Dryburgh Abbey, whose ruins are still remarkably complete. Look out for the final resting place of Field Marshall Earl Haig and Sir Walter Scott, as well as a 22 foot high sandstone statue of 'Braveheart' himself, William Wallace, at the end of a woodland walk. Nearby is the famous Scott’s View, which is a viewpoint overlooking the Valley of the river Tweed and which is reputed to be one of the favourite views of Sir Walter Scott. Just a few miles away the picturesque country town of KELSO, famous for its racecourse, lies in a fine setting at the junction of the rivers Tweed and Teviot. The spacious town square claims to be the largest in Scotland and at its centre is still the Bull Ring, a reminder of past market days. In Kelso you will find Floors Castle, which was built for the 1st Duke of Roxburghe in 1721 and is Scotland’s largest inhabited Castle. The Royal and Ancient Burgh of JEDBURGH, which is dominated by a magnificent 12th century Augustinian Abbey, was home to Mary Queen of Scots during the autumn of 1566. The Visitor Centre has one of the country’s richest collections of pictures and objects of the life of the tragic queen, including her death mask, which is said to have been taken from her body at Fotheringay Castle. The towns of the Scottish Borders are home to one of the oldest equestrian festivals in the world, the Common Ridings, which take place during the summer months and pay homage to the region’s tumultuous past and celebrate its unique identity. The history of the Scottish Borders is deeply entwined with the turbulent era of the Borders Reivers - raiders who ruthlessly pillaged the lands on either side of the Anglo-Scots border from the late 13th to the early 17th century. At Common Ridings festivals throughout the summer, today’s residents commemorate the times when their forbearers patrolled the boundaries of their settlements on horseback defending against these fearsome marauders. This spectacular display of horsemanship and community spirit takes place in eleven of the region’s towns, with the oldest ridings belonging to Hawick, Selkirk, Langholm and Lauder. From May to August hundreds of riders saddle up for their respective territorial trots led by a standard bearer, usually elected by his local community. In some towns, the festivities can last for up to two weeks with a riveting programme of rideouts, barbeques, traditional sports, games and music, all wrapped up in the unforgettable pageantry of the Common Ridings. Wide open spaces and sensational scenery make the Scottish Borders the perfect place for walkers all year round, whether it’s a gentle stroll by the beautiful River Tweed, or something more demanding. There are some 1500 miles of dedicated walking routes including the Borders Abbeys Way, the Southern Upland Way and St Cuthbert’s Way, stretching from the high moorlands around St Mary’s Loch to the rugged coastlines of Berwickshire. And when you’ve seen everything that The Borders has to offer, why not hop on the train to Edinburgh!

Great host welcomed us by picking us up from the train station and driving us to the accommodation, which was not only accurately described in the listing, but also was spacious and comfortable. The location was fabulous with Gunknowe Loch and a Late Premier Shop close by, ensuring a convenient and beautiful stay, along with a bus stop with bus services to other Border towns. Besides the awesome complimentary wine and a provided hairdryer, the snow on our last night in was a wonderful final touch to our stay, and it would not be surprising if I came back again.

Thank you, Pete and Linda, we had a very happy stay in your apartment. We enjoyed the Christmas decorations which added a special touch. The apartment is exactly what we expected from the photos, was immaculately clean and very centrally located. We had fun feeding the swans across the street at the loch too.

Kathy2015-01-04T00:00:00Z

Peter was a welcoming and informative host. The apartment was spotlessly clean, beautifully furnished and had lovely views. There were treats left for all the family... The only pity was we couldn't stay longer!

Nikki2016-03-30T00:00:00Z

Comfortable house by a lovely park and lake. We enjoyed visiting from it the Scottish border and Edimburgh. Pete gave us some useful information about facilities in the area.

SANDRA2015-07-25T00:00:00Z

Met by host with keys.Everything was catered for. Excellent in every way.

John2016-08-15T00:00:00Z

The apartment was very comfortable and clean. Peter was very helpful and made me feel welcome. I enjoyed my stay.

Fergus2016-04-11T00:00:00Z

Peter was great - very accommodating, showing us around the apartment and explaining everything very clearly. The apartment was absolutely brilliant: clean tidy and spacious - a home away from home. For the Borders we were placed more or less centrally, which made travelling around really easy. We'd recommend this AirBnB to anyone who's coming to the Borders as a fabulous place to stay.

Malcolm2015-06-05T00:00:00Z

I was fortunate enough to be able to stay in this apartment for a period of time. It really is a lovely apartment and in an ideal location. I was able to walk to the new Tweedbank station from the flat when i returned to Glasgow over the weekend. Peter was a great host and i was made welcome on arrival, given a good tour of the apartment and also some hints and tips of what amenties were close at hand. I really enjoyed being able to stay in the apartment and would recommend this to anyone looking to tour the Borders. It was a really enjoyable experience.

We had a lovely stay, and the apartment had everything we needed, Luigi was very efficient.

Paul2017-07-16T00:00:00Z

Very welcoming. The apartment was lovely warm and clean. First time in Melrose it was lovely. Everything you need for ur break Luigi and Eva were very kind having it there for us. Will be back. Thanks again both. Full stars on review for you.

Lizzie2015-07-14T00:00:00Z

Made to feel very welcome. lovely accommodation, home from home. Would definately visit again.

Angela2016-04-08T00:00:00Z

This is a lovely first floor flat, light, clean uncluttered and modern, with everything you could need. Luigi and Eva were great hosts. It is extremely quiet and peaceful in the Dingleton complex. We really appreciated the easy parking. The location is very handy for local hill walks and golf, and for touring in the Borders but just SLIGHTLY too far (and up hill) to walk to/from the centre of Melrose for those that are not very young /fit... We enjoyed making the most of the discount at Monte Cassino restaurant nearby!

Sally2016-06-21T00:00:00Z

We were greeted by Eva, who showed us around and let us know they were available if needed. This is a lovely home with all aspects of comfort. There is a very modern kitchen with new appliances.

Fiona2015-12-29T00:00:00Z

Lovely flat, very comfortable, clean and tidy, in an amazing building in the nice village of Melrose with the spectacular Abbey. A perfect place to discover the fantastic area of the scottish borders.

Eduard2017-08-08T00:00:00Z

I spent a lovely couple of days at Luigi's spotless apartment. Communication was good and appreciated Luigi meeting me, so I could follow behind in the car. The apartment was light modern and spacious with plenty of parking. Would be very happy to stay again anytime.

My place is a perfect base for a countryside/city break. It is a cosy, compact, newly upgraded flat. It is bright & airy, with picturesque views of the countryside I provide basic groceries for a self-service breakfast - an Aldis store is 1min away, & breakfasting cafe 2mins. By car or bus, you are nearby all the attractions the Scottish Borders are so famous for. Day trip to Edin? First trains to Edinburgh start before 6am, and last return just before midnight - perfect base for Edin Festival.

Kirsten's place is really well located both for the town of Galashiels and nearby attractions/activities around the borders and Northumberland. The apartment is clean and comfortable and we would definitely return if we holidayed in this area again!

Alitia 2017-08-27T00:00:00Z

Lovely flat in the scottish borders. Close to ALDI, train station and the rest of Galashiels. Warm and comfortable. Would come again if visiting Galashiels.

Rebecca2017-03-21T00:00:00Z

Beautifully upgraded flat with quality fittings,especially bathroom and kitchen. Thoughtful food items left by host for our arrival. Wonderful view of the surrounding hills from the flat.

Stephen2016-08-10T00:00:00Z

Kirsten has definitely got this right. She was there to greet us and show us around the flat. She was very friendly and welcoming but the best thing of all was the little extras that she left for us. There was milk in the fridge,tea and coffee and even salt and vinegar for our Fish Suppers. It was a real home from home. Thank you so much Kirsten for allowing us to share your lovely apartment.

Lesley2016-08-18T00:00:00Z

Decent place to stay for a couple of nights. Clean and tidy. Good information on the local area. Tea, coffee and milk also provided.

Matthew2017-07-16T00:00:00Z

Kirsten made us feel welcome by picking us up from the train, showing us around the town before heading to the apartment. She had some snacks and breakfast food available so we could just relax and not have to go shopping right away ( however there is a grocery store very close by). The location was perfect for our travel plans - an easy walk to town and the train station. The apartment had everything we needed.

Barbara2016-09-21T00:00:00Z

This was my second stay at Kirsten's and it was as before comfortable and warm. Within walking distance to shops, bars and restaurants and the railway and bus station. Kirsten picked me up from the station, as before, and there was milk and bread for me, and more than the usual staple foods you find in Air B&B places.

fiona2017-01-21T00:00:00Z

Everything about staying here was easy, from the initial contact with Kirsten, to her picking me up from the rail station to the shops and rail station all being close by. The flat was was warm and toasty despite the weather, and there was an eclectic blanket and spare heater just in case... But neither were needed. No internet for a week might put you off, and I had my doubts, but it was great to not be available 24/7. Thanks Kirsten!

This beautiful second floor apartment is conveniently located in the Borders village of Tweedbank, just a short drive from Melrose and Galashiels. Very well-appointed throughout, this apartment offers couples or families a comfortable base from which to explore this fascinating area.

The apartment has a compact but very well-equipped kitchen for all your culinary needs, and meals can be enjoyed at the dining table in the sitting room which is ideally placed in the large bay window with wonderful views over Tweedbank. On sunny days why not open the French doors to the Juliet balcony and enjoy meals with the fresh air coming in? The light and airy sitting room has comfortable sofas where you can relax and watch a favourite film together after a day of exploring. Two well-appointed bedrooms ensure a good night’s rest for everyone and the twin room has the added flexibility of zip/link beds so can be made into a king-size double if required.

A short walk from the apartment will take you to Gun Knowe Loch with a shop and a licensed restaurant/bar. Tweedbank is an ideal starting point for exploring nearby Galashiels, Melrose and the surrounding Borders countryside. The train station at Tweedbank is less than half a mile away and with trains running direct to Edinburgh you can sit back and admire this scenic route and be in the capital city within 50 minutes. Walkers will enjoy superb walking on the Southern Uplands Way and Borders Abbey Way, or spend time exploring Abbotsford House, the stunning home of Sir Walter Scott. Melrose is home to the annual Borders Book Festival in the month of June, and cyclists can test their skills at the nearby Glentress Mountain Bike Centre. Whatever you choose to do, this apartment is perfect for a break in the Scottish Borders.

The place was as described & Jill was very helpful, she'd left us a very thoughtful welcome pack which was clear concise & usefull. The apartment was very clean, tidy & comfortable, it had everything required for a pleasant stay we would definately stay again & highly recommend it to anyone wanting to stay.

My place, close to transport links, is a perfect base for a country or city break. The Edinburgh Festival is only 50 minutes away by train (trains run from 6am till midnight). Situated in the heart of the historic Scottish Borders, the full upgraded apartment was originally a 1920's bungalow. Why not relax with a glass of wine in the private garden, jacuzzi bath or snooker room or curl up on the window seat with a good book.

This lovely, spacious apartment has been renovated and improved to a high standard and is the ground floor of a family home with one double bedroom and one twin bedded room. The apartment was originally a 1920’s bungalow and some original features still remain, such as the floor tiles in the front porch and the fireplace in the snooker room. The large fully fitted kitchen includes a range cooker with 8 gas burners with 2 electric ovens and a grill, fridge freezer, washing machine and dishwasher. Everything is provided to enable you to cook as much or as little as you want. The kitchen leads through to the open plan living and dining room which looks out on to your own patio/garden area overlooked by beautiful mature trees. The living/dining room includes a comfortable corner sofa unit with a recliner and a brand new 32” Smart TV. The dining table and chairs which seat 4 people comfortably look out into the lovely mature garden and the patio doors can be opened in good weather. The garden and patio area for your own use, includes a rustic table and chairs for 4 people. The mature garden also includes pots of seasonal flowers and is a great place to have breakfast or a glass of wine in the evening (weather permitting!). A barbecue can be supplied on request. The luxury bathroom has been recently renovated and includes a Jacuzzi bath, luxury fluffy white towels, a power shower and a heated floor and the snooker room at the front of the apartment includes a traditional snooker table and a couple of fridges to store cold drinks (so you don’t have to move through to the kitchen) : ) The comfortable double bedroom overlooks the front garden/terrace while the twin bedded room (with brand new hotel-style beds) overlooks the side of the house. Both bedrooms have a good amount of storage with large wardrobes complete with inbuilt drawers. A hairdryer is provided and is located in the double bedroom wardrobe. All the beds are comfortable with Egyptian cotton bedding. The entrance to the apartment is through a small side porch which includes coat hooks and is a good area to leave wet coats and muddy shoes and boots! There are two off road free parking spaces with this apartment and we provide free Wifi.

Galashiels is one of the larger towns in the Borders and we are situated a short drive (3 minutes) or a walk (15 minutes) from the town centre and rail and bus links. There are also local buses which can take you from outside the apartment into the town centre every half hour. Galashiels itself has many shops (including a 24 hour Asda and Tesco), bars, restaurants and cafes, parks, a cinema and a swimming pool and is a good base for travelling to the other major towns in the Borders by bus or car. These include Melrose, Selkirk, Jedburgh, Kelso, Hawick and Peebles. Or you can take the train to Edinburgh in 50 minutes on our brand new railway which opened in 2015. Places of interest include the abbeys of Melrose, Jedburgh, Kelso and Melrose, Abbotsford House, the home of Sir Walter Scott and many other stately homes, castles and gardens. There are also many wonderful walks in the hills, valleys and forests of the Borders and in Peebles there are wonderful mountain biking trails.

This lovely apartment is well equipped and makes an excellent base for exploring the Borders. Huge supermarkets are only a few minutes drive. What we really appreciated was the great service that we received. Communication before we arrived was excellent and the directions were spot on. When we were there all our question were answered really quickly and then followed up on. Overall, we had a lovely visit and I would recommend staying here.

Michael2017-08-27T00:00:00Z

Lovely place with lots of nearby attractions. Helpful host. Very comfortable particularly the relaxing jacuzzi and pool table. It rained a lot that weekend so unfortunately never got to use the outdoor table. The sun came out just as we left :)

chris2017-07-16T00:00:00Z

Another fab stay .

Ardia2017-03-16T00:00:00Z

The flat was lovely, the photos don't do it justice. Clean, modern with lots of extra little touches which made it feel like a home from home. Pool table kept us entertained on a rainy afternoon...kids and big kids would love it!

Gillian2017-05-21T00:00:00Z

Wonderful stay as usual. Perfect place.

Ardia2017-08-24T00:00:00Z

I would like to say a few words, Aileens place made me, my 9 year old daughter and two friends who are a couple feel very at home, it was a perfect setup for us! friends and family!, like a home from home! i would stay again thats for sure! x

mathew2017-02-19T00:00:00Z

Aileen's place is wonderful. Aileen warmly welcomed us when we arrived. Her place has everything you need as a base to explore the beautiful Scottish borders. It is very private, with a lovely outdoor seating area. The bathroom is great, wonderful shower and spa bath. I highly recommend Aileen's property!

Kristen2017-03-26T00:00:00Z

We had an an amazing weekend up in Melrose in the apartment. Duncan and family were great hosts and really looked after us. The flat itself it huge, we expected it to be nice but it was so much more impressive than expected. Great value accommodation and hope to stay again in the future.

Luke2015-12-14T00:00:00Z

We stayed here for a couple of nights on a mini break with our two kids. The apartment looked just as the photos suggest. It's got a grand feel, and extremely spacious! Lovely size rooms with beautiful decor. It's very well equipped too, Duncan even provided us with a cot, high chair and stair gate. Highly recommended and just a short walk from the centre of beautiful Melrose. I hope we'll be back!

Katie2017-08-24T00:00:00Z

What a beautiful home! We felt like we really lived in Melrose. Very spacious and tons of space for clothes, etc. Comfy beds, lots of seating and a large family kitchen and table. We especially appreciated the children's games and puzzles and the laundry downstairs. I hope we will be able to book this same home next time. Communication was very good -- especially when I realized I had left my bracelet behind and came back later to find it. They opened the door for us without delay.

Susan2016-07-06T00:00:00Z

Great apartment in a very quiet location but only 5 minute walk in to Melrose. It is exactly as described and I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a stay in this area.

Chris2016-08-01T00:00:00Z

Stunning property. Very cold Feb weekend but hosts had kindly left fire on for us. We were travelling with small children and the games cupboard was a real hit. Great location close to amenities but felt nicely secluded also, with a lovely view of the hills.

Andrea2017-02-13T00:00:00Z

The flat was just what I was looking for! A clean, stylish flat which could host a group of friends in a quiet picturesque area. The communication from Duncan before arriving was great so we knew exactly how to let ourselves in and could instantly get in with our own activities. In our group we had two children and the quiet area, large sitting room, large bedrooms and ample family friendly activities in the area was perfect. A great flat and great hosts, I would recommend to anyone.

Bella2016-08-15T00:00:00Z

Great house. Great location. Melrose is fantastic place to visit.

sandra2017-04-10T00:00:00Z

Lovely large apartment in a quiet residential area of Melrose. There were nice views to the hills. Apartment was spacious and comfortable and nicely furnished with all the facilities you might need. We had a wonderful weekend, we were in Melrose for a family wedding and being able to have our own space walking distance from the centre of Melrose was ideal. Would highly recommend if you are planning a trip to this part of the world.

Lovely apartment, nicely furnished with all mod cons. Laura was super helpful and even left us an array of tasty breakfast options which was most appreciated after a long journey!

HANNAH2017-08-27T00:00:00Z

The apartment was everything and more than we expected. The generous welcome pack including the milk, butter and jam in the fridge was much appreciated . The rooms were large and the beds extremely comfortable, a good nights sleep is guaranteed. The apartment was extremely well appointed, washing machine, dishwasher etc. As we spent some of the time in the apartment during the day having the ability to change the timer on the boiler was very welcome. We were not overlooked and had a pleasant views of the woods. Being able to park with no difficulty was an added bonus. If there was anything we required Laura got back to us very quickly. We would without any hesitation recommend this AirBnB.

Humphrey2016-10-13T00:00:00Z

Excellent accommodation, really felt spoilt. Excellent walks a stone throw away. Highly recommend! Thank you

esther2017-05-27T00:00:00Z

Probably the best equipped Airbnb place I've ever stayed in - and very comfortable and quiet, which to us is important. The welcome pack, with food for breakfasts and an entire (very nice) cake, was amazingly nice! A good base from which to explore the Borders. A little bit further from the centre of Melrose than I had expected, but that's my fault for not checking the map carefully. Communication with Laura was excellent.

Duncan2017-08-23T00:00:00Z

I was absolutely gob-smacked. It's a beautiful apartment.. everything has been thought out from the lovely welcome hamper to furniture.. The pictures do not do this place justice. It's very peaceful with loads of room. Well laid out and extremely comfortable. Everything is high quality but very homely. Not far from the centre of Melrose which a very pretty village/town. I would highly recommend a stay... I won be staying again as soon as possible despite the fact I was working. Thank you Laura.

Lindy2017-07-13T00:00:00Z

We spent a great couple of days at Laura's apartment. The apartment itself was excellent very spacious and very well equipped. The welcome box was a very nice touch. Easy parking right outside. Communication from Laura was good and we had no problems at all, though I do know the area very well. Negatives.. For us absolutely NONE. Thanks Laura we had a great stay!

Andrew2017-05-31T00:00:00Z

The apartment was comfortable, clean, warm and most of all welcoming. Very well equipped, a sunny lounge with space to sit outside and have coffee. Well kept grounds, easy parking. Lots of lovely walks - only minutes by foot to the Eildon Hills. Melrose itself is a vibrant wee town with interesting shops and lots of places to eat and drink. An ideal location to explore the Borders and the many things the area offers for the perfect holiday. We will definitely be back for the rugby at the Greenyards, the two fantastic restaurants in Gattonside - (easily accessible over the footbridge) and the wonderful Borders hospitality.

My place is close to public transport and family-friendly activities. You’ll love my place because of the outdoors space, the comfy bed and the neighbourhood. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, business travellers, families (with kids), big groups, and furry friends (pets).

Our 4 bedrooms all have tea/coffee making facilities and TVs. We have two shower rooms to share.

Melrose is the best kept secret in the Scottish Borders. We are right on the High Street, close to all amenities. It's a great base for walking St Cuthberts Way, climbing the Eildons or visiting Abbotsford House amongst many other places.

We had a perfect stay, in a beautiful house right in downtown Melrose. Angie and her husband were very helpful and gracious hosts, and breakfast was delicious. I highly recommend a stay at the Old Grocery House! Thank you again for a lovely stay!

Alexander2017-06-09T00:00:00Z

Thanks Angie and Malcom for such an wonderful stay! Really loved our chats and learning about the area. You guys are awesome!

Mary2016-09-13T00:00:00Z

We had a wonderful stay at Angie and Malcolm's place. They beat most hotels we've visited so far hands down.

Lena2017-05-14T00:00:00Z

We had an amazing stay at the Old Grocery House. Situated on the main high street in Melrose. The directions were great and we parked overnight just outside the front door, then during the day 100m down the road in a free car park. Angie and Malcolm have a beautiful home. The room and shared bathroom were both lovely. Breakfast was amazing. We'd love to stay here again!

Alexander2016-09-04T00:00:00Z

Ideal location in the centre of Melrose.

D Peter2017-07-11T00:00:00Z

Angie and her husband were perfectly lovely! Our stay was perfect thanks to them. Their 2 dogs were also so nice ! Shortly, it was perfect so go there if you are looking for a cosy bedroom with lovely hosts!

Sophie2016-09-14T00:00:00Z

Lovely house right in the heart of Melrose, but nevertheless quiet. Very comfortable and very warm and welcoming hosts -thanks!

Becky2017-08-05T00:00:00Z

Angie and Malcolm were amazing hosts. I had a tricky schedule due to a wedding I was attending, and they were so accommodating. The place was fantastic and WARM (always good in a Scottish winter), the room was lovely, and I was treat like a VIP. Good banter, good place, and all round good time. I would definitely recommend this place and these wonderful hosts.

Emma couldn't have been more helpful before and during our stay. The apartment is fab, really spacious and beautifully kept. Thoroughly recommended!

Flora2015-12-17T00:00:00Z

Emma and Lucas (and Lucas's father) made us feel very welcome. There were food essentials in the fridge and even a bottle of wine. The flat was immaculate and looked just as it does in the photographs. The flat has a lovely sense of lightness and space with incredibly high ceilings. The bedrooms are all well sized with comfortable beds. There all sorts of games (even a games console) in the huge living room. We went to Melrose for a family wedding and it was amazing to be in such a lovely, well priced flat that fit so many of us. Melrose is a charming town with lovely shops, cafes and few very good restaurants. The area is very pretty with lots of sights and beautiful walks to be had. The flat is a longish walk to the town, so perhaps not ideal for the elderly. However, it is easy to find parking at both the apartment complex and in town. We had a wonderful time and I would recommend Emma and Lucas's flat unreservedly.

Sancha2016-05-31T00:00:00Z

A wonderful stay for me and family. The flat is truly beautiful - pictures do it no justice! Emma was a very accommodating host with check-in/check-out times as well as leaving us with more than just essentials. Thank you again!

Ania + Susch2015-10-05T00:00:00Z

The host received us and took us through the very large appartmeent. She was friendly and helpful. The appartment was massive and obviously exceeded our expectations. All 10 of us were very pleased to see so much of space. What was most amazing was the toilets. I have never seen such massive toilets before. On the whole we were very pleased with the place and would highly recommend this to anyone wanting to visit Scotland. Lastly, Melrose itself is a scenic place. There is a lot to see and do. Accessible to Edinburgh & Glasgow too.

Laxmi2015-05-26T00:00:00Z

A great spacious home to stay in. Emma & Lucas were very accommodating and their apartment was everything & more we could have needed.

Laura2017-03-18T00:00:00Z

We were a party of 8 from all across the UK having a catch up weekend. The apartment was all we needed and had all we needed and more. Will certainly be recommending it. From booking to check out everything was easy and no hassle. Lots of extras available and good to know there are still places like this available. A hint I would give is to make sure you have taxis organised before you walk down the hill to (URL HIDDEN) not quite as easy coming back!! Thanks again Emma and Lucas

Lou2017-08-20T00:00:00Z

Large, comfortable and well equipped apartment situated 10 minute walk from Melrose town centre. The main feature is the extremely large lounge/dining room which was ideal for entertaining a large birthday celebration. Emma and Lucas were attentive hosts and flexible on check in and check out times. Welcome pack was a nice touch and we would definitely recommend this property.

Krish2016-10-04T00:00:00Z

We had a fantastic stay in Melrose. Apartment was very spacious and suited all our needs. It was only a short walk from the town centre of Melrose which was a great base to see other Border towns. We will definitely be back as my son was very sad to leave

With a cosy double room, living space and sofa bed our flat is perfect for a country retreat to the beautiful town of Melrose.

An ideal base for exploring the Scottish Borders, this cosy flat is within walking distance of local shops and the famous Burts restaurant.

Melrose is the home of rugby, and boasts a number of specialist food and clothing shops, as well as a choice of excellent pubs and restaurants. Melrose Abby and the river Tweed are a five minute walk away, whilst the Eildons offer excellent walks.

The flat is really homely and Angie made it really comfortable setting up the sofa bed for us and even leaving us an arrival basket of goodies. The flat is in the centre of the town with great little shops near by. we highly recommend staying here

Emily2016-08-22T00:00:00Z

Very welcoming

tom2016-08-18T00:00:00Z

The host canceled this reservation the day before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Charlene2017-08-08T00:00:00Z

Angie gave us a very warm welcome and she arranged breakfast for us; very friendly. The flat itself is nice and very good located in the nice centre of Melrose. For us it was a perfect base to start our fishing trip from.

Roelof2016-08-15T00:00:00Z

This was a wonderful apartment near the River Tweed but the welcome basket was the biggest surprise! I loved the white wooden doors. The parking was best in the Priorwood Car Park although we were able to park in a car park next to the house. But they were filled up the next day, so Priorwood is better as there are lamps in the car park. Otherwise it is really a charming flat.

Marlene2017-08-25T00:00:00Z

Essentials provided on arrival. Host checked before and during stay if there was anything else they could do. This flat is compact but has everything you need. Right in the heart of Melrose which is a lovely borders town.

Lorraine2016-08-08T00:00:00Z

The flat was exactly as described. It was comfortable, clean, very handy for all local amenities and met our needs in all ways. The host had left basic food stuffs to get us started which was very handy as we arrived in the evening. probably wouldn't be suitable for anyone disabled as it was up a flight of stairs but although small had everything that was required for a few days stay. Easy and prompt communication with the host who settled us in on the first night and was available if we had needed any further help. We would certainly use this again.

margaret2016-07-29T00:00:00Z

Angie is great host and made every effort to ensure my stay was comfortable. Lovely cosy flat and a great location to explore the area with a good selection of shops and restaurants with in easy walking distance. I would recommend Angie and the flat to anyone wanting to explore the Borders.

Only £35 per room, per night with no extra cleaning fees or deposits. We are located in the very centre of Selkirk village, with a wealth of history and beautiful scottish landscapes on your doorstep. Our home is your home and welcome to anyone! During your stay we can also offer manicures & pedicures at a reduced rate of £10 each per person. Our 2 mountain bikes are also available for you to rent at £10 per bike per day.

All recently renovated, we have a very large, light space. With an open communal lounge area, but equally large bedrooms if people prefer privacy during their stay. All rooms are quirky, clean and comfy, please see photos.

What do we Love about Selkirk? The amazing sunsets and rises have to be a favourite, closely followed by the sheer amount of history and nature right outside the front door. It is a very artsy area, always boasting quirky events and a plethora of galleries and craft shops.

Great location, lovely hosts and very comfortable room and stay. Tina is so generous with her time, and thinks of everything to make a stay welcoming and hospitable. She does a mean manicure too!

Caroline2017-09-03T00:00:00Z

Great apartment and very gentle hosts.

Miriam2017-08-04T00:00:00Z

Incredible hosts! Feed us and made us feel like family. The location is absolutely incredible! There's a Pub a few doors down, there's food places within a few minutes and even seconds of walking distance, and the views are amazing if you take a 5 minute walk into a park maybe 1/2 a mile or less away. The room was super quiet, the bed was SO comfy, the blankets were the softest, and adorably decorated. The bathroom was bright and super clean. This place and these hosts are the cream of the crop! I would come back to Scotland just to stay with Chris and Tina again, that's how great they and their place was.

Allison2017-04-23T00:00:00Z

What a gem of a place! Chris and Tina are super warm and welcoming and the flat is delightful. Light and airy and charmingly decorated to reflect the joy these two have in hosting people from around the world. Selkirk is a great little town from which to explore the borders and I took a day trip to Edinburgh . I drove but there's also a direct train! Extra special: The place is 2 minute walk from the Haining, with its great woodland walks, stately house and a loch!

Ekua2017-08-02T00:00:00Z

We had a great stay and we received a very nice! So AirBnB fun! The room was beautifully decorated and everything was clean! It feels like home!

Lukas2017-05-11T00:00:00Z

Tina and Chris's bright, warm flat is spotless and they are great hosts. Selkirk has some lovely countryside really near so I explored the banks of the Ettrick, the Yarrow and also the Haining Estate which is a minute or two walk from the flat and is simply gorgeous.

My place is close to public transport, Melrose Abbey, many restaurants, Abbotsford House, Harmony House, the famous River Tweed. You’ll love my place because of the neighbourhood, the comfy bed, the delightful hosts and the friendly dogs. My place is good for solo adventurers and business travellers. Old Grocery House has 3 doubles and 1 single bedroom with 2 bathroom/shower rooms to share.

It was a great place to stay and perfect for a dog lover.

Elizabeth2017-07-17T00:00:00Z

Booked last minute and only stayed one night, so my view might be a bit skewed. Positives - Near the abbey - Near buses - Near restaurants and shops - Malcom and Angie seem like nice people - The dogs are friendly Negatives - No written response to messages. Not even a quick hello, just a pre-approval to book (and confirmation when that didn't work properly) - No curtain on the window, so the light from the sun rising woke me up at about 4am - Fitted bedsheet was stained - rather off putting - but the spots did seem old and everything smelled clean, at least Overall, slightly better than I was expecting when I didn't get a message back from the host. I nearly cancelled in favour of a hotel because of this, when the booking didn't automatically go through after pre-approval was given.

LauraLee2017-06-26T00:00:00Z

Annie's was very central. Easy to get to the Abbey and gardens.
