Take a walk on the wild side in this historic town. Ideal for a romantic time away with your partner and dog, this beautiful little cottage has everything you might need. You’ll be staying in the Scottish border town of Jedburgh, famous for its beauty, castles and links to Mary, Queen of Scots. So grab your sweetheart and your top dog for an unforgettable trip.

The exterior of the cottage matches the rest of the town and has beautiful old stones, which gives the whole place a sense of timelessness and history. As you enter, you’ll find cool and warm tones in alternating rooms and charming decor. There’s a spacious bedroom with a king-size bed and a convenient en-suite bathroom attached. You can cook a slow, romantic meal with your sous-chef (Fido) and dine in the kitchen/diner before curling up with your partner in the lounge for an evening of long conversations. While this property doesn’t have a garden or outside space, there are so many places to explore nearby and ample opportunities to sniff out adventure.

Speaking of which, there are plenty of local walks around Jedburgh, and the countryside really is stunning. The town itself has lots of beautiful architecture, as well as dog-friendly pubs and other places to explore. Any history enthusiast will love all the information about Mary, Queen of Scots, and there are two castles in the nearby town of Kelso, 12 miles away. Visit the ruins of Roxburgh Castle or the maintained Floor Castle, both of which welcome four-legged visitors.

Fantastic cottage in an excellent location in Jedburgh, very comfortable, clean and really well equipped. Loads to do in the area (Jedburgh Abbey, Abbotsford House, Mary Queen of Scots house) and not too far from Edinburgh. Thankyou for a lovely stay, we will back.

Impeccably clean and very comfortable cottage. Ideally placed in the centre of Jedburgh with easy access to other towns in the Borders. Great parking spot behind the property. Two minute walk to the local supermarket, a couple of nice restaurants and a nice cocktail bar in the local hotel. Fabulous stay, would definitely recommend!

Just returned from a lovely week spent at 1 Smiths Wind. Perfect home in an ideal location in the middle of Jedburgh, right off the main street but quiet. So many areas to visit in the local and surrounding areas. We took our 8 month old puppy on his first holiday and he was in his element in the house, not to mention a couple of the local pubs!Read more Everything you could ask for on your doorstep, with handy private parking space just round the corner. Mary Queen of Scots house just a few steps away. The house itself had everything we needed (and more) and was well equipped to a high standard, just like being at home. Friendly neighbours and lovely owner who was very helpful and easy to communicate with. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend a stay here and will definitely return. Hide
