About Us

The Lodges

Recently constructed, each of the two, pet friendly, timber lodges (Barn Owl Lodge & Kestrel Lodge), with self catering facilities can sleep up to 4 persons (per lodge) along with 2 small or 1 medium sized dog, and consist of a large bedroom with a king bed, a smaller twin bedded room, a separate shower / w.c and a living area with kitchenette. Outside is an adjoining small separate outbuilding containing a heated drying rack and space for storage. There is also a rotary washing line outside. The property is fully electric with radiator central heating for winter months.

From the private hot tubs you can enjoy the open location which offers unbroken views over the town of Kelso and beyond, including Floors Castle, Hume Castle, Smailholme Tower and the Eildon Hills at Melrose.
