Thairn cottage, a self-catering, holiday cottage in the Scottish Borders, has a wee touch here and there to make your stay in southern Scotland even more relaxing. Whilst all on one level, just like our other two cottages, Thairn benefits from being slightly bigger including an extra-long, king-size bed – great for taller guests.
An extra bed can be added in the bedroom or in the spacious living room to sleep 3 in total. In the bathroom, there’s a separate walk-in shower as well as a bath, and the kitchen has a built-in oven/grill as well as a separate microwave oven and a dishwasher.
Highly accessible, Thairn is adjacent to our large, level car park and approached on a flagstone path – good for the ambulant disabled who use a wheelchair outdoors. Directly off the south-facing living room is your own private conservatory, perfect for dining whilst watching the birds and the big Borders skies, in peace and quiet.
