This was our second time staying at Canonbie, and everything was exactly as we remember it. We enjoyed the second visit as much as the first.If you get the chance, take the back road from Newcastleton to Langholm across the moor. Charming...
We enjoyed a very relaxing break in a cottage that exceeded our expectations, complete with beautiful gardens. A great base to tour from, it is exceptionally clean, comfortable, well-equipped, and offered wonderful views of the area. Hosts were very helpful and welcoming. Highly recommended.
We stayed during the Easter holidays with our two children. Thankfully we had gorgeous weather so went on plenty of walks and bbqâd most evenings. A gorgeous, clean, quiet cottage
Julie's garden cottage is a delight. Beautiful peaceful location and lots of amenities just a short drive away. Julie's little touches of milk in the fridge and biscuits for hungry children always on the hunt for snacks was very thoughtful. :-)
Plenty of everything! The host was very accomodating and kind and the cottage had everything available. Well equipped kitchen, lovely and clean bathroom and beautiful garden area onsite. The bed was very comfortable and even a little wood stove for a cozy fire (starter kit of wood/fire starters, too). Great place for a get away.
Great place to stay for exploring the area or relaxing and unwinding in the beautiful garden area. Very well appointed. It was one of the best places we stayed this trip.
Cracking property, really clean and everything you could ask for. Lovely outside space, inside well appointed.
Cottage is a great base being only an hour from Keswick and a short hop into the borders.
Would definatly recommend.
This is a lovely cottage in a stunning location. The photos don't do full justice to how nice this place is. Small and still perrect for our little family. Very well equipped. Gorgeous gardens, bbq, outside seating is a plus. Lovrly nature right on your doorstep. Hosts were fab. Recommended!
Excellent location, extremely well maintained and presented with gorgeous gardens and views. Hosts very friendly and hardworking in the garden. Look forward to a return stay soon
Absolutely beautiful property in canonbie. We have used a few times for accommodation for when we are working down there. Great and friendly hosts. Canât recommend enough. Thank you
The cottage was in a beautiful location with lovely gardens. It was very clean with all the essentials. The hosts were super welcoming and helpful. Would highly recommend.
Absolutely loved The Garden Cottage! Very warm, cosy and comfortable. The owner has clearly put a lot of thought into it, including everything you could need. If I was to make a suggestion I would have liked a USB socket or plug as I stupidly forgot mine so shared husbandâs. But that is a minor thing and I am sure if I had asked Paul or Julie would have lent me one. We particularly appreciated the milk for a cuppa and the shortbread too! Hope to be back again!
The cottage was beautiful, comfortable and spotlessly clean with everything we needed. Julie was friendly and kind, and catered brilliantly for our needs. I would be very happy to stay there again.
We stayed three nights while visiting friends who live nearby. We couldn't have found a better place to stay!
The property is beautiful and the owners are very kind and welcoming. We enjoyed chatting with them and walking around their gardens.
The cottage has been fully remodeled and is very well done. The kitchen/living/dining area is open and very spacious! The kitchen has everything you'd need, along with a full size fridge/freezer!
The grounds are lovely, as is the nearby woodland and river. Plenty of places to walk nearby.
We only wish the weather had been drier so we could've enjoyed the outdoor patio area more. We would definitely stay here in a heartbeat if we are back in the area!
Oh, and our daughters loved going to the fence to say hi to Oscar, the horse next door!
Absolutely fabulous cottage full of quality items and everything we would ever use or need.
Hosts were also very nice people, no hesitation in returning one day
Our Canonbie stay was wonderfulâ the cottage was very clean, the beds beyond comfortable, and Julie provided us with local info and recommendations. Walks and nature views were tops. The only negative was that we couldnât stay longer.
In hindsight we should have been there for twice as many nights. The cottage was extremely well equipped, having everything that you might need for a longer stay. It was very peaceful and only a short drive from the Lake District, which was the main point of the visit.
Paul and Julie were great hosts and seemed to be very tolerant of the foibles of their antipodean visitors?
One piece of advice - don't visit the Lake District on a spring bank holiday weekend! It was manic!
The cottage is a lovely place for a quiet break. Clean, very warm and comfortable. Comfy beds and plenty of lovely fluffy towels. The boiler room housed a washing machine and a drying rack for any damp items of clothing or towels. Our hosts were so welcoming and friendly. We didn't personally do much travelling but there are nice walks to be had close to the river and into woodland pathways. The trees were beautiful with autumn shades, and there were pheasants who even trotted past our windows. Very dark at night so we were able to view Milky Way when it was a clear night sky.
We are just back from a lovely short reak in Garden Cottage, Canonbie. The cottage was extremely clean and cosy. Lovely, comfy beds and toasty log burner. Good walks in the area and despite the mixed weather, we enjoyed the autumnal colours and visiting the Faerie Falls. Communication with Julie was excellent too. Would recommend.
Great property - compact but very well equipped - in a very good location: quiet, close to the river, use of a garden, a very hospitable host. A difference of opinion between host and website as to time of checkout but otherwise excellent and we would hope to visit again.
