Old Hyndhope Cottage has one of the very loveliest situations in the Scottish Border country with wonderful sweeping views all around of the Ettrick Valley. It stands fairly high itself (car access to door) with walks radiating in all directions and no disturbance except from visiting sheep, birds and occasional deer - Hyndhope Estate is just 2 miles south of the village of Ettrickbridge (pub/bar meals) bordering the B7009 which runs from Selkirk (9 miles) in the central Borders down to Langholm (38 miles) in Dumfriesshire.
This is wonderful hill country with quiet roads taking you easily through spectacular scenery to all the small Border towns and many places of interest and this very high standard holiday cottage attracts many delighted visitors back year after year. The cottage itself is as trim and neat as a new pin. It is attractively decorated and furnished in delightful cottage style, with an open fire in the cosy sitting room, and a recently refurbished kitchen and bathroom. With a mixture of double, twin and single bedrooms, it offers both versatile accommodation and a high degree of comfort. Salmon fishing on the River Ettrick can usually be arranged with The Owner or The Buccleuch Estates and trout fishing (fly only) in stocked Lochs with the Owner.
Heating is by open-fire and night-storage heaters (£20 of Electricity INCLUDED). Bed-linen and towels are INCLUDED. Dogs are welcome if kept under strict control. No smoking is allowed in the house.
