This charming gate lodge on the edge of the Milne Graden Estate sits on the border of Scotland and Northumberland, and is a captivating spot for getting back to nature and savouring the relaxed pace of country life.
During the summer, guests can enjoy the large, sunny garden with sunsets over the hills. In the cooler months, with the wood burner lit, a good film and a wee dram, you won’t want to leave!
Designed to reflect its countryside and woodland setting, the artwork above the fireplace - Ramsons and Campion by Scottish artist Angie Lewin - was the inspiration for the calming interior. Soft blues and pinks along with the warming touches of sisal rugs and linen, contrast with the natural slate floor which has the added benefit of underfloor heating when the temperature starts to drop.
A comfortable super king bed will bring a little luxury to those weekend lie-ins, while premium toiletries by Neom will start you on your wellbeing journey.
The river holds a special place here, and picturesque riverside walks watching the morning wildlife gently come to life, or wandering flower-filled woodlands in Spring will bring simple pleasures and lasting memories.
Dog Park
All Milne Graden properties benefit from the use of the Tails of the Tweed Dog Park in the estate’s former Victorian kitchen garden. Sitting on the route of the mapped walks which run around the estate, this bright, sunny spot is a perfect space for relaxation while your furry friend can play and run freely within the safety of this enclosed space. A range of dog agility obstacles and toys are sure to add some extra fun!
