St Cuthbert's Farmhouse
A striking Victorian farmhouse, architecturally reminiscent of a French chateau, St Cuthbert’s Farmhouse is situated amid 600 acres of rolling borders farmland above the River Tweed, commanding a fabulous view of the surrounding countryside and the river.
A classic country house complemented by modern amenities such as Wi-fi and Sky television, St Cuthbert’s is ideal for extended families and large house parties offering excellent entertaining space and five good sized bedrooms and bathrooms.
The property sits in a large, lawned garden with an outside dining area and a large children’s play area. There are beautiful walks directly from the house across the 600 acres of surrounding farmland. Or stroll further afield along the beautiful Till valley, up to the romantic ruins of Twizel Castle or along the banks of the famous River Tweed.
Just a stone’s throw from the River Tweed, St Cuthbert’s is an obvious choice for anyone fishing the prime bottom and middle Tweed beats including Tillmouth, Lennel and The Lees. There is a dedicated rod and boot room at the house and a separate box freezer in which to store the catch of the day.

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.
