Coldstream Coach House
Set off the Market Square overlooking the Leet Water, this comfortable conversion is well placed for fishing parties looking to fish lower and middle Tweed or those looking to explore both coast and country.
Accessed via a shared private courtyard, the coach house benefits from a sunny open aspect with french doors leading out to a super raised patio where you can enjoy the peace and quiet of the area looking across the river to the Cheviot Hills beyond. A side gate leads into a fully enclosed garden to keep the four-legged member of your party happy or a two minute wander will take you onto the riverside for a leisurely after-dinner stroll.
Designed for relaxation and comfort, the sitting room is set out in a companionable layout with a mix of modern and period touches, along with some super artworks which reflect the creative flair of the owner. A dining space for six offers space for friendly get-togethers or informal suppers, leading into a small but well equipped kitchen which has all the essentials for holiday living.
Upstairs there is a family bathroom and three bedrooms (two double and one single with truckle) all warmly appointed with rich linens to inject a little colour and personality.

Location
Coldstream is a quaint but bustling little town sitting on the north side of the River Tweed right on the Scottish/English Border. It has an incredibly rich past, giving its name to The Coldstream Guards, the oldest serving regiment in British military history, and sits close to Flodden Field, site of the infamous battle of 1513.
Surrounded by superb countryside with wonderful views, yet with Coldstream’s shops, pubs and cafes right on the doorstep, guests to this area get to experience the best of both worlds. The shopping here is small and friendly with a good mix of independent outlets running the length of the High Street.
The Coldstream Gallery is a lovely spot to browse art, ceramics and jewellery by local artists and designers, or pop into Calico Interiors for lifestyle gifts and accessories before coffee and cake at the charmingly named ‘Mad Hatter’ nearby. There is a family butchers, bakery and small Co-op supermarket for holiday provisions, or head to the Cornhill Village Shop (1.5 miles) for scrummy picnic lunches, hampers, local produce and home baking. More extensive shopping and amenities can be found in the picturesque town of Kelso (9 miles) which is also home to the 12th Century Abbey, Floors Castle, the Roxburghe Championship Golf Course and National Hunt Racing.
For eating out, you will receive a cheery welcome at The Besom Inn on the High Street for traditional pub fayre, or The Collingwood Arms at Cornhill is an elegant setting for lingering lunches or fine evening dining. A little further afield, the Allanton Inn at Allanton or the Wheatsheaf at Swinton are both renowned for serving dishes full of fresh local flavours amidst relaxed, convivial surroundings.
