It truly is a home from home, so well equipped, so cosy and close to lots of gorgeous little towns. The owners are just lovely. We were lucky enough to visit the Christmas Market at the garden centre and meet 2 of the donkeys from the Scottish Borders Donkey Sanctuary too. Would definitely recommend Little Gem and can't wait to come back. Thank you for having us x

The lodge was clean, comfortable and well equipped. The garden and decking area was enclosed so our dog could wander around safely, the weather was good so we even enjoyed a sit outside in the sun.
