A quintessential country cottage, this very lovely property rests gently on the edge of the original walled garden on the Teviot Bank Estate amidst glorious scenery.

For those craving a little of the good life, this pretty cottage will hit the right note for fishing, walking, and cycling pursuits along tranquil river valleys or simply cosying-up with a good book in front of the dancing flames of a real fire. When a lazy lunch beckons, the charming village pub is just a mile from the door.

The beauty of this cottage is the peaceful country setting yet is ideal for sightseeing and exploring the wonderful attractions of the area. Warm and inviting, the cottage benefits from an open plan sitting room with wood burner and dining space leading to a bright, sunny kitchen, while a separate sitting room adds a dash of Nordic elegance for relaxed socialising or just a little time-out.

The bathroom on the ground floor has a plentiful supply of hot water whilst upstairs, two double bedrooms (one double, one twin) have delightful combed ceilings and scenic views out towards Ruberslaw Hill. Crisp linens from the White Company, gorgeous furnishing fabrics from Scottish design company Inchyra, along with sumptuous goose down duvets and pillows should help to ease you into a restful sleep.

The front of the cottage looks out over arable land leading down to the River Teviot while a pretty garden to the rear is an idyllic spot for sunshine days watching the comings and goings of wandering wildlife passing on by.

The Little Things We Love

This cottage rests gently on the edge of the original walled garden amidst glorious scenery. The perfect setting for a relaxed break.

Don't take our word for it...

We enjoyed the river walks and Harestanes. Golf was enjoyed at Roxburgh. And of course on those rainy afternoons, the sitting room was the best place to be. Cup of tea and the best of biscuits. Thank you for a lovely stay.

We had a lovely time at Garden Cottage, thank you. The location is wonderful and so relaxing. It was lovely, cosy and we had a very relaxing time there, the welcome pack was great too as we arrived quite late on the Monday. We will definitely continue to use Crabtree & Crabtree as we do like unique high quality properties.

Garden Cottage was a great little cottage for our stay in the Scottish Borders. It was exactly as the photos had shown and had a luxurious yet homely feel. The surrounding area was beautiful with plenty of safe grounds for our children to play. It was a nice touch to find freshly picked flowers and essentials such as bread and milk and toiletries provided. The beds and linens were very comfy and the cottage was clean and cosy at night with the added bonus of two real fires/ wood burners. We all had a great time there so thank you.

We have been coming back down to earth gently after our amazing trip. I just wanted to say how beautiful the cottage was and how much we thoroughly enjoyed our visit to a beautiful part of the country. I also must say a thank you to you also for all the information that we were sent and which was all received in a timely manner, meaning that we were never left wondering how we would get in or where the cottage was. We would not hesitate in using your company again and would indeed recommend you to our friends.

Lovely cottage. Very warm and comfortable. Excellent area to discover. Will certainly return.

Beautiful cottage, very relaxing and homely and an excellent location. We loved watching the hares box right outside the window. Many thanks for the flowers and thoughtful welcome pack on arrival. The biscuits were enjoyed with tea on those squashy sofas - it became our default position on returning to our home from home after exploring. Hope to be back!

Very comfortable cottage with gardens that are a haven for wildlife. Willow warbler, goldcrest, bullfinches spotted amongst the usual suspects. Also had a stoat visiting the patio one morning.

We have had a lovely relaxing stay in this gorgeous wee cottage, had everything we needed for a cosy and comfortable time. Thank you so much for the provisions which were much appreciated. We've done a fair few walks around the cottage!

We have had a fabulous few days here in this lovely wee cottage. So beautifully furnished and the most comfortable pillows I have experienced ever, away from home!
Mr & Mrs Benjamin
It was a delight to stay in Garden Cottage and we would recommend it to anyone who is looking for comfortable accommodation within a secluded and peaceful setting. The countryside is brimming with wildlife and is a frequent visitor to the garden. Three hares were running up and down the drive and around the garden every morning and evening and we also saw deer. A glance from the sitting room window revealed a stealthful stoat running with a birds egg in its mouth and the birdsong was a wonderful accompaniment for evening barbecues. The icing on the cake were the orphaned lambs in the walled garden which also gave us the opportunity to meet with the owner when she came down to feed them, who was lovely and very welcoming. The location is perfect for walking, cycling and sightseeing. Easy walk into Denholm and beyond up to the top of Rubers Law. We loved walking the Eildon Hills and we enjoyed visiting the Four Abbeys. All amenities are easy to reach when needed but we were also happily tucked away in our little cottage. We were fortunate enough to be in Hawick for the Common Riding and enjoyed lining the street with the locals to watch the Cornet bringing back the flag. Garden Cottage is very comfortable and was well prepared for us with some welcome essentials and goodies to start us off with. It’s light and spacious downstairs with lovely cosy bedrooms upstairs. The hot water was plentiful and the wood burner was easy to use and supplemented the heating on cool evenings. We have never before been to this area of Scotland and we were bowled over by its beauty and history. There is so much to see and do and Garden Cottage is the perfect spot to stay in.
Mr & Mrs Saunders
We spent a very comfortable and most enjoyable week in The Garden Cottage at Teviot Bank.
Leverton family
We certainly enjoyed our stay last week and were blessed with lovely weather. There were four of us this time and although that can be more logistically difficult we loved the cottage and surroundings.
Farrer family
The cottage was as described and pictured. The children loved the garden! The walled grass area was great for frisbee and the external garden was good for exploring. As well as this is the patio garden which is included in the pictures. The cottage itself was very clean with really luxurious bedding and towels. There are a lot of small thoughtful touches like plenty of hooks for coats and a porch which took all the boots so we could keep the cottage clean and nice to pad around in bare feet. There are plenty of leaflets and an OS map to help you explore, plus DVDs and a selection of magazines to help you relax. Lovely comfy property in a beautiful area - I’d definitely visit again.
Mr Turnbull
Great holiday, lots of happy new memories to take back to NZ!
Guest party
We had another fantastic stay (our third) at Garden Cottage. We love the peace and quiet and feeling of being ‘away from it all’ but close enough to activities and facilities when desired. The local deer and hares put in a few appearances around the cottage, we watched as an owl swooped down on his breakfast, but unlike our last visit, the otter was a no show.The weather was a real bonus after the recent deluges and we easily managed to get out and about every day. We returned to some favourite walks, such as the Eildon Hills and the monument at Harestanes, but we also explored further afield and visited the delightful Berwick Upon Tweed and St Abb’s Head. Garden Cottage is a lovely base for the beautiful Borders, there is still so much we haven’t yet seen and done in the area, we are sure we will want to return. The owner always makes us feel welcome and comfortably at ease and we thank her for her welcome gifts. Thank you for making the whole process smooth and stress free.We have no hesitation in recommending both Garden Cottage and Crabtree and Crabtree. Indeed, we already have recommended your company to friends, who have their first booking with you this coming June!
