If the promise of playtime along riverbanks and walks through knotted woodland is something that appeals to your dogs, look no further than this two-bedroom retreat. Situated near Peebles on the Scottish borders, up to two dogs and their four well-behaved humans can enjoy an escape like no other, full of relaxation and exploration. From the weaving paths of Glentress Forest to the bright lights of Edinburgh to the cathartic qualities of Peebles itself, long-associated with hydropathic treatments, this stunning Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is sure to win over the whole pack.
An attractive detached cottage, you will immediately appreciate the balance of period charm with modern comforts. Wipe up paws and pull off boots in the vestibule and make your way through the hall to the lounge. A light-filled, comfortable space that comes alive in winter with the crackle of a wood burner, this is the perfect haven for two and four-footed explorers to relax after a day on the go. When stomachs start to rumble, the well-equipped farmhouse-style kitchen will call to all budding chefs. Cook up a storm, leaving aside some titbits for your canine chums, and serve up around the dining table or outside on the patio. With belly full and dogs snoozing, run yourself a bath in the contemporary bathroom – the underfloor heating will only add to the luxuriousness!
Enjoying an enclosed garden and stunning countryside views, the cottage’s exterior is a wonderful spot for soaking up the sunshine and playing a game of fetch. That said, there is plenty to lure further afield too! For energetic adventures, Glentress Forest is 13 miles away, while the Pentland Hills are 16 miles away for even more fun. For a day of cultivated wilderness, Kailzie Gardens are only 13 miles away and welcome dogs on leads.
