Overview
Set off the beaten track on a private country estate, Bramley Cottage sits in a wonderful spot amidst a stunning rural landscape with nothing but the odd passing tractor to interrupt the view.
Amidst a stunning rural landscape
Here guests can enjoy leisurely walks from the doorstep, explore the picturesque towns and rich history of the Borderlands to the north, or enjoy the fantastic woodland trails and brilliant dark skies of the Kielder Forest Park to the south.
With four double bedrooms (3 en-suite, 2 ground-floor), the cottage offers flexible accommodation for friends and families to retreat, relax, entertain or enjoy the great outdoors. Decorated in a pretty country cottage style, the sitting room is intimate and cosy, the bedrooms crisp and fresh, while a modern galley kitchen provides all the essentials for holiday living.
A separate dining room/sitting room with wood burning stove is furnished in a superb shooting lodge style and is a wonderful space for get-togethers or more formal entertaining, with the option of privately catered services for that special celebration, shooting or fishing parties or perhaps just a little holiday pampering.
The property sits on the Edgerston Estate just south of Jedburgh and its position will appeal to peaceful relaxers, walkers, cyclists and country sports enthusiasts who will be able to take full advantage of its position in acres of open countryside. Dating right back to 1448, Edgerston has a rich history, playing a prominent part in Reiver skirmishes in early days and then notable literary connections with some of the most distinguished writers of the time including Sir Walter Scott, John Buchan and J M Barrie. Today it operates as a private shooting estate and working farm.

Location
Despite its rural position, Bramley Cottage has good amenities close by and is incredibly well positioned for exploring attractions north and south of the border. The historic market town of Jedburgh with its magnificent 12th century abbey ruins, sits just 6 miles from the cottage where you will find a good selection of shops, supermarkets, restaurants, cafes and pubs as well as a leisure pool, fitness centre, small dry ski slope and 18 hole golf course.
