Orchard Cottage
Lower Tweed fishing beats sit just minutes from the door for those looking to cast their line amidst the scenic heartland, yet perfectly placed for taking in all the sightseeing attractions both north and south of the Border.
On the ground floor, the kitchen has a relaxed country vibe with nature inspired accents from Lewis and Wood giving a nod to the rich fly fishing history of the area. The country theme continues into the three guest bedrooms, accessorised by warming tweeds and beautifully rich wool throws and cushions from the design house of Anta.
On the first floor, the sitting room enjoys views over the garden to the river beyond and features a large sofa and two wing back chairs using finest Moon wools from the mills of Yorkshire accented by sumptuous Mulberry velvets and plaids. Add the blissful beauty of a real fire for a perfect end to the day, along with a wee dram perhaps!
The cottage benefits from a large sun-trapped lawned garden to the rear, ideal for dogs and children and for taking advantage of those golden alfresco moments with friends and family.

Location
Located on the northern edge of Northumberland, the pretty village of Cornhill-on-Tweed is an ideal base for exploring both the North of England and South of Scotland. There's plenty to interest enthusiasts of fishing, hiking, and history, from the evocative castle ruins of nearby Norham to the banks of the salmon-filled River Tweed.
Cornhill-on-Tweed is home to a village shop, a café, and an excellent pub. The surrounding countryside is perfect for walkers and cyclists with mile upon mile of scenic trails available. The village of Coldstream, just across the River Tweed, is also on hand with a broader range of shops, galleries, and restaurants.
For day trips, the historic market towns of Berwick-upon-Tweed and Kelso are within easy reach. The hills and cliffs of the Northumberland National Park and Northumberland Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty are perfect for days spent exploring beautiful beaches and historic sites, while the dramatic abbeys and Reiver towers which are dotted throughout the Scottish Borders are equally fascinating.
