  • We have had a lovely family holiday at Eildon Holiday Cottages. We have enjoyed walks into Melrose, relaxing in the beautiful and spacious lounge (Howlands) and eating with all our family round the dinner table. Thank you!
  • Our first trip to the Borders. A lovely part of Scotland made all the more enjoyable by our stay here in Hamiltons! Many thanks.

  • Dear Rob, we have found this cottage (Single Tree Cottage), surrounding nature and the town of Melrose absolutely enchanting. We have enjoyed our stay immensely and we hope to come back. Your warm welcome was very nice and the cookies were delicious. This cottage was a perfectly comfortable home for the week and we found your facilities for a disabled person excellent. We were very lucky to enjoy both rainy and sunny Scotland. Thank you and goodbye to you, your family and the sheep.

It's great to find a place this relaxing and with an amazing view :-) Sorry we couldn't bring the sun with us, decided we should have left it in London for the Olympics :-) Many thanks for everything and for the shortbread.

  • We loved the cottage, it was so comfortable and we loved the view accross the countryside. We will definately recommend you to friends - only wish we could stay longer. Thank you.

  • To Rob & Alex - what a beautiful cottage! (Langrig) What a pleasure! Thank you Rob for everything you did for us to make our stay as pleasureable as possible.

Wonderful holiday and thanks again.
