Jedburgh is a historic town sitting in close proximity of the Scotland/England border, resting halfway between Newcastle upon Tyne and Edinburgh. There are plenty of shops, pubs and award-winning restaurants in easy reach, as well as the historic wonders of the town's Castle Jail, Mary Queen of Scots House and the imposing abbey. There are plenty of opportunities for walking, cycling, fishing and golfing all around, as well as Melrose, Kelso and Peebles all being just a scenic drive away too.

  • Margaret

    It was comfortable, clean and well equipped. It has lovely views from the patio doors. The welcome pack was a nice treat. The only downside for us was that there wasn't an enclosed garden, only an enclosed area away from the house. We would have liked to be able to open the patio doors and still have our dog safe. Unfortunately we won't be returning to the Old Byre because of this.

  • Brian

    Thank you for the cheese, wine grapes and shortbread which was a lovely surprise.

  • Robert

    Great specification of kitchen and bedrooms. Surprising easy to keep warm with both underfloor heating and clean wood burning fire. Only negative for us was the access from the main road A68 to the access road to the farm. Wonderful view from the patio which is situated with access from main living area.
