Monteviot Stables West
A warming sense of calm for families and friends is at the heart of this courtyard conversion. The deceptively spacious interior has been carefully styled using simple natural fabrics, classic furnishings and a colour palette of complimentary neutrals to create a sense of flow and harmony.
The sitting room with generous seating and wood burning stove has lovely proportions with a large bay window that lets the sunshine flood in, while a well-appointed study allows those with business commitments to take a little time out.
The kitchen features high-quality granite work surfaces, while coffee buffs can take advantage of the Nespresso machine and head to the wonderful open garden for a spot of quiet contemplation listening to the sound of bird song or watching inquisitive squirrels dash across the lawn. A formal dining room seating eight has plenty of space for entertaining and there’s the option of privately catered services for a truly relaxing stay.
Upstairs, four tranquil bedrooms (two superking and two twin) are appointed with crisp linens and fresh tickings for a comforting sense of warmth. There are three bathrooms on this floor (two en-suite) with roll-top baths or large rainforest head showers for a bit of pampering at the end of a busy day.
Outside, there’s something for all interests on the doorstep. Families will love to explore the woodland trails and outdoor adventure playground at nearby Harestanes; passionate gardeners can find their own little patch of heaven wandering the stunning gardens which bound Stables West; walkers can join the path of St. Cuthbert’s Way at this point; while the fishing members of the party can cast a line on the nearby River Teviot or Tweed systems.
Guests staying in December 2024 will be treated to complimentary tickets for Monteviot Light Show, running on 9, 20, 21 and 22 December. Please tick the box at the booking stage if you would like to receive these.
