This is a stunning apartment. Whilst it was on the pricier end of what I would normally go for, it was like having a combination of a luxury 5-star suite and a comfy, cosy cottage in one! The bathroom is exceptional - the jacuzzi bath is real luxury and the rain shower is lovely too. It was great to have that and the pool/snooker room to relax indoors - the weather wasn't great when we were there but it didn't bother us because we could just relax into the lovely home. The kitchen was like a home from home - fully equipped with everything you need to cook up a feast and a lovely comfy living/dining room too. The bedroom was quiet, tucked away at the back and very comfortable. We didn't get to use the outside seating but imagine that would be great in the summer. We didn't make it into central Galashiels other than the train station because we went self catering - it was a 20 min walk away down a fairly busy road. We did do a lovely walk along the river to Abbotsford and Melrose though, so would recommended that! Overall, a great spot for exploring the Borders!

Aileen's apartment is great, very comfortable and spotlessly clean. Big and nice kitchen next to a cosy living room with views to the garden. Plus you get visits from a lovely cat from time to time! Would definitely recommend it.

Nice and quiet.

Aileen was very efficient and welcoming. The place is a beautifully and sensitively created ground floor apartment from what was formerly a large family house. Everything is clean and new- nothing at all tired or tatty here(URL HIDDEN) Very spacious, lovely and warm(URL HIDDEN) We used it as a base for walking, cycling and taking the train from Tweedbank to Edinburgh. The local cinema is a great amenity, also 24 hour supermarkets.

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!

A lovely place to stay. Great bathroom and kitchen. Extremely clean and a very peaceful area.

Gorgeous house in a lovely location. Fantastic host who is extremely helpful and makes you feel really at home. The jacuzzi bath and pool table were well used during our short stay. Superb place. Immaculate.

great place as always

Everything was as stated and the arrangement to have earlier entry in the afternoon made it easier for us all to meet up. We were celebrating a 70th and 40th birthday so it was a family gathering and we were all coming from different areas. The flat was warm and spacious with extremely comfortable beds.

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.

The listing was just as described. The neighborhood was close to Melrose center. We loved how well stocked the kitchen was. It was set up great for children, had a baby gate on the stairs (although it could be a little more secure), plastic cutlery and plates, and toys for our children to play with. They really enjoyed their stay at this place allowing all the adults to relax. We wish we could have stayed longer.

Wonderful Melrose apartment. Beautifully decorated. Well worth a visit.

The Good - Lovely traditional flat. Easy parking. Very well furnished and comfortable. Great beds, lots of towels and a good shower. Peaceful and cosy once the heating took effect. Excellent location close to town (recommend the Town House Hotel to eat). The not so Good - Heating had not been on timer so was a cold place on arrival and for a while. The windows looked like they had not been cleaned for ages and kind of spoiled the lovely views. No tablets for the dishwasher so could not use (and no hot water in the kitchen). Overall - The not so good is easily rectified and is for info only. My family enjoyed the stay and we would return.

This gorgeous Georgian house has it all. Great location, extremely spacious and very clean. We stayed as a 4 people holiday for 3 nights and both of the double bedrooms were super. Large beds, plenty of storage space. Even a utility room downstairs for damp coats or muddy boots from a walk in the hills nearby. Short walking distance away are plenty of shops and pubs. We went to a great restaurant called seasons borders, a close 15min walk (or 5 min drive) huge recommend. Fast wifi, good power shower and large kitchen for cooking full dinners on a range were brilliant. We'd happily come again! Thank you.

Had such a wonderful time at this gorgeous Melrose house! The town is quaint and beautiful. We hiked along the river Tweed, had delicious meals in the local restaurants and had a truly relaxing weekend of exploring. The home was clean and well decorated. The kitchen had everything any cook could possibly want. I would definitely recommend staying here; by the end of the weekend I wanted to stay longer!

Absolutely beautiful house in a lovely village. We were sent out lots of information prior to our stay and made to feel very welcome. Lovely quiet location. There was a well equipped kitchen for us to cook in. We would definitely stay here again.

Eva was charming and was waiting for us on our arrival. The very beautiful and extremely roomy apartment was spotless and we even had essentials left for us :-). The placement was perfect for us as we were attending a wedding in a village close by and we needed peace and quiet after the event;it is also within walking distance of Melrose. We had a fabulous weekend and we highly recommend Mamma Casa. Thanks to Luigi and Eva for allowing us to stay in their place.We hope to be back in the near future.

This was a fantastic stay and Luigi has a beautiful apartment in a really nice place! The location is perfect and the surroundings are absolutely stunning. It is necessary to have a car though otherwise it is extremely inaccessible. Luigi was super cooperative and communicative regarding the time and was easily contactable via phone, he also brought us croissants, bread and milk for breakfast which was really nice. The apartment itself is wonderful and has everything you could possibly need! We didn't even want to leave the apartment! Wish we could have stayed longer and really enjoyed our stay!

Lovely place, comfortable, clean. Host was very helpful. Worth walking up to Bowden Loch for stunning views. Quite a steep hill if walking to Melrose, but don't let that put you off.

We had a perfect weekend here. Luigi met us when we arrived, showed us round and explained everything we needed to know. The flat is spacious, well laid out and spotlessly clean. The beds are comfortable, the towels luxurious and the kitchen well equipped (There are are three different kinds of coffee maker). It's a pleasant fifteen minute walk to the centre of Melrose, a beautiful little town with lots of interesting shops and good quality eating places. And it's a good base for touring the other border towns. We really couldn't have asked for more. Highly recommended.

Lovely house, very well equipped. We had a great stay.

Luigi met my wife and I as planned, and gave us a detailed tour of the apartment. Breakfast basics were provided, together with fruit and various cleaning supplies, and access to the washing machine. The apartment was excellent; bright, comfortable and very clean, with all technical mod cons. There is lots of free parking, and it is within walking distance of Melrose town centre. Both Luigi and Eva are very friendly and welcoming. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone.

A fantastic apartment in a great location for exploring the scottish borders or relaxing away from the world. The apartment is brilliantly furnished, clean and well hosted. Luigi and Eva were great and made us feel very welcome. We were very sad to leave and would definitely visit again! Dont forget to visit the local italian restaurant.

The property is very neat with a well equipped kitchen, nice bathroom and nice bedrooms. The stay in the apartment was very nice. The immediate surroundings are beautiful and Melrose is strategically located to Edinburgh after 50 minutes by train you are in the center.

What a wonderful weekend we had whilst staying in Melrose and staying with Angie and Malcom was the cherry on top. They have an incredible house and were wonderful hosts, they really made us feel at home during our stay. The full Scottish breakfast every morning were amazing too. We stayed here due to a wedding in the area, and out of all of our friends we really struck lucky with this place. Would highly recommend this Air Bnb as a place to stay in Melrose the location is perfect and is in a picture perfect little town.

I spent three nights here, which I will remember fondly. The house is beautifully and tastefully decorated, the room I stayed in was large, clean and very comfortable. The hosts Malcolm and Angie were most welcoming,friendly and provided a very tasty Scottish breakfast. I definitely recommend this as a perfect place for a relaxing getaway.

Very comfortable, welcoming hosts and great location. Excellent breakfast.

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

As I was hiking the southern upland way, passing from Lauder to Melrose, I very much enjoyed my stay at this cosy B&B. The accommodation met all my needs in therms of comfort and enjoyability. I felt revitalised the next morning by a nice chat, a good sleep in the very comfortable bed, as well as a wonderfull breakfast (felt like a king)! I would recommend to all my friends!

Brilliant. Welcomed and felt at home. Providing drinks was really appreciated. Very friendly.

Great hosts!, we had a perfect stay at Angie's! Very nice guestroom,full scottish breakfast! (or other, the evening before we were asked what we would like for breakfast), Melrose Abbey is just around the corner. Lovely dogs :) . We can highly recommend to stay here !

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 is so lovely person and so sweet of her to welcome us personally with food and wine,the neighbour is all nice place is so quite and peaceful so if you want to relax this is the best place

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

Emma and her family made us feel incredibly welcome from the moment we arrived. Her husband met us and showed us round the staggeringly beautiful apartment, telling us everything we needed to know for a comfortable stay and made sure we had all our questions answered before he left. They had even gone to the trouble to make sure we had two highchairs (as we had two toddlers with us) and linen especially for the kids in case we hadn't brought our own. Little touches like this and the welcome basket left in the kitchen just go to show what a great host Emma is, she really considered our every need and went the extra mile. What can I say about the apartment except that it was even more perfect than the pictures on the listing suggest. Our party consisted of five couples and as each arrived they all marvelled at the size and quality of the lodgings - they congratulated me many times on finding such a great place to stay so I must pass on the goodwill to our host! I have nothing but good things to say about our stay. We were comfortable and very happy here, and would return in a heartbeat. In fact I'm planning on convincing my family to hold our next get-together down in Melrose just so I can take advantage of Emma's hospitality again. Highly, highly recommended.

Great apartment, photos don't do it justice.

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.

We had our first breakfast waiting for us and arrived really late the first night. Thank you

The host canceled this reservation 207 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

We stayed here for my hen party (group of 10) and the apartment was perfect in every way. There was plenty of space of all of us to relax and the beds were very comfy. Emma left us a lovely welcome basket including bottle of wine which was lovely. I would not hesitate to stay here again if in the area. Thanks Emma!

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.

We had a warm welcome from Kirsten. She was waiting for us when we arrived and gave us lots of useful information about the town and the area. She left everything that we would need for breakfast and snacks - including croissants! The flat was ideal for two people. The kitchen and bathroom are immaculate, brand new and efficient. It is well placed for anyone wanting to explore this lovely region. Having an Aldi next door was very useful! Plenty of other shops in the town- something for everyone. The Borders Railway to Edinburgh was close by and this is an excellent way to get to the city.

Great wee place to explore the Scottish Borders. Cosy and comfortable. Kirsten is a wonderful host who is very welcoming and accommodating! Great stay!

Lovely flat, well equipped, good location to explore the borders. Kirsten was very welcoming and helpful. Enjoyed our mini break here a lot

Great little flat, Kirsten is very friendly and helpful! Was a pleasure staying for the week.

We had a great stay in this lovely little flat, Kirsten was most helpful with great communication and met me on arrival even though I was running late. The flat was great and with a supermarket next door and the town centre only 10-15 mins walk it made it a lovely base for us to explore the borders which is a stunning area. Kirsten even left some basics in the fridge and freezer which was a nice touch and very welcome. Thanks!

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!

My host Kirsten was very nice and excellent. Her flat was far better than expected and the location was fabulous with scenic view from bedroom. She provided everything you think of staying in a flat from breakfast to sewing facilities. Great experience!! Thanks Kirsten

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!

An end unit in a news (a brick courtyard) that was quiet and very comfortable. Would stay there again.

Tina and Chris were amazing hostesses, very helpfull and very nice. The house was very clean, well decorated, we had access to all amenities and even food. We recomend it to everyone.

Tina was friendly and welcoming, the flat was clean and bright and the room very nice.

I owe Tina everything! I came to the area, because I'm in love with the Scottish Ballad "Tam Lin" and the setting is very close to Selkrik. Tina drove me out to the area, which I appreciated, because I didn't realize how far it was. We didn't exactly find one of the sites I was looking for, but she was my captain during the whole adventure! She is such a lovely, bubbly woman, I adore her! Chris was in Edinburgh at the time, but he Facetimed in and was super pleasant. I also met his father who was at the house doing an electrical project, and he was just as pleasant! Charlie, the small dog they have, is seriously adorable and sweet, very well behaved. He didn't bark once while I was there. The room was an absolute dream after having terrible hostel roommates two nights in a row in Edinburgh. Very lovely room and very lovely Scottish village. This place is a gem!

We had the great pleasure of joining Chris and Tina's family for our first Burns night (which was awesome) and felt very welcome our entire stay. The flat is great, newly renovated and would highly recommend to any visitor of the Scottish Borders! All in all, staying with Chris and Tina was very comfortable, we felt as though we were staying with old friends. Hope to see you guys in the future.

Excellent hosts... love to meet people and interact with their guests. Clean and tidy accommodation in a picturesque village

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.

Wonderful time in Peters place.This little flat is a must for anyone visiting Galashiels or Scottish Borders.Great communication from start to finish.Loved the bottle of wine as a welcoming gift.Thanks Peter and hope to stay there again next time

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.

This is a beautiful apartment just outside Galashiels, the perfect setting for time in the Borders, or (URL HIDDEN) nearby Edinburgh. Its well equipped, clean, comfortable and provided the perfect base for our trip. Hosts are very welcoming.

We were warmly welcomed by the friendly welcome, the delights and the many info on the region. The apartment was more than fine. Certainly well described in the ad. The apartment is perfect for exploring the region, but also to look at Edingburg whether such a highland tour. Definitely recommend this apartment!

Lovely flat, very well-equiped, nicely decorated and very well situated to visit the Borders. Communication was very easy with our hosts, and we really liked all the informations provided by Linda and Peter. The hiking maps were also a nice plus. The ideal Airbnb !

We really enjoyed staying in this lovely modern apartment. It is in an excellent location. Walks available starting from the apartment along the River Tweed and to Abbotsford Visitors centre- home of Sir Walter Scott. It is a really lovely area to explore, particularly around Melrose. Pete and Linda the hosts met us with a key and showed everything we needed ot know. In the flat were ample leaflets and walking books to help plan our stay. We would not hesitate to recommend staying here.

Good location, with the train station on your doorstep, lovely walks, and villages and towns close by. The flat is immaculate, warm and cosy. I didn't need to have the heating on for long despite the really really low temperatures outside! It's a real home from home.

The apartment we rented for a week from Peter is ideally placed for a visit to the Scoittish Borders. We were especially interested in Abottsford, which is only a 5 minutes walk away, but the rest of the border Edinburgh included is easily reached. The apartment itself is very nice, airy, clean and with all the comfort you need. Peter and his wife gave us a warm welcome and made us feel right at home. Highly recommended!

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.

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. Margaret and Ian Collacott

Very welcoming

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

Angie was the perfect hostess - greeted us on arrival and left some things for our stay and she checked that we were happy during our stay. She also gave us some good tips about the local area. The flat was perfect for our stay - right in the centre of Melrose within a short walk of all the amenities you might need and a train station with a direct line to Edinburgh just 10 minutes drive We would be more than happy to stay at the flat again and hope we can do so soon

Excellent accommodation and hospitality. A friendly, cheery reception and made to feel very much at home. Thank you so much!

Definitely a must stay if you are visiting the borders. 10/10.

Tina and Chris were wonderful hosts. They coukd not do enough for us, from providing tea and cake and haggis to try to letting us get all our washing done and dried, they were so helpful. They are also a very interesting couple to talk to and have lots of ideas to pass on with regards to travelling. They've certainly given us things to think about - and I thought we took our holidays seriously!

We really really enjoyed our stay! Although we were only there for one night we felt incredibly welcome and wouldn't hesitate to return. Tina did all she could to make us feel welcome when we arrived, and both she and Chris were full of useful info and recommendations for what to do in the surrounding area. The flat is also beautiful, you really can't go wrong when it comes to staying here!

Best B and B that we've stayed at. Exceptional!!

Tina and Chris are great hosts, nothing was too much trouble. The room was clean and comfortable. Would highly recommend

Cris and Tina provided US awesome accomodation. They were very kind, friendly and we felt there like at home. Thank you very much.
