Netherraw Reviews

Amazing property in a beautiful peaceful location. Owner was easy to reach with any questions and the field attached was perfect for exercising our dog. We were very sad when it was time to leave but will defiantly be returning.
Absolutely amazing place! Beautiful house and gorgeous surroundings. So peaceful and relaxing, I could have stayed there forever.
A great property and just like the photos and listing. A lovely place for a family break.
Christopher
Lovely cottage great location. Cottage had everything you needed and more. Great time had by all
Tracey
The cottage was perfect for our family. Plenty of outside space for everyone and the dogs to enjoy. The only negative is the stairs to the two bedrooms are rather steep and narrow. We went for a long weekend which was just right for me as you are a drive away from local amenities. Dont forget mosquitoe candles and spray as they are everywhere this time of year!!!
Robert
We really enjoyed our 3 night stay at Netherraw cottage. Absolutely nothing to fault. The space was perfect and in the middle of the countryside with nothing but nature all around us where we also enjoyed a few walks. Inside the cottage was very homely with everything you could possibly need and very comfortable. The weather was also wonderful, but that just added to the experience where we spent most of the time out the back, eating, having a few relaxing drinks and spending time in the awesome hot tub out the back too! Thank you for making this lovely cottage a lovely experience for anyone who enjoys a nice escape to the country, which we most appreciated!
The pictures do not do this place justice as beautiful as the pictures are, it was truly amazing. With us on our week we had family from 3 different households and dogs and it had everything we needed. Everything was clean and in its place,the garden,hottub and field was perfect. The owners who I had to call twice during our stay because we actually wanted to extend our stay even when on her own break away was so helpful and kind and took the time to deal with us. I can not recommend this beautiful home and area enough. You will definitely be satisfied..
Loved it! Perfect place to relax after the stress of city, will be booking again very soon
Rachael

Lovely property in a quiet area!
Charmaine
Absolutely stunning cottage! Its was so cosy and homely. Surrounded by fields it was so peaceful and relaxing which exactly what we were looking for. Would definitely recommend.
Deborah
Netherraw cottage is an outstanding property, the photos do not do it justice. Idyllic location with the only sounds of the birds and the sheep, simply perfect for a peaceful relaxing break. Great location for Kielder, walking and cycling. The owner goes above and beyond to ensure everything runs smoothly. Our miniature schnauzer loved her stay too! Thank you. Highly recommend this property and would love to return again soon.

2nd visit, lovely place.
Stephen
What an amazing property perfect tranquillity in the middle of nowhere.
A beautiful cottage. Very comfortable and we had a great week here. The hot tub was such a treat.
We had a lovely holiday at Netherraw. The cottage was well equipped and the beds were exceptionally comfortable. We all slept well, thanks in part to the cotton bed linen and soft, cosy pillows and duvets. Loved the hot tub! The cottage is well placed to explore the history of the Scottish borders, with many castles, stately homes and abbeys to visit.
What a fantastic holiday! ! Netherraw is a wonderful cottage, I really dont think the photos do it justice! Everything is top quality from the bed linen to the velvet sofas. We had such a relaxing time, our batteries are fully recharged. Newcastleton is a lovely little town with a great pub and cafes. Theres plenty of walks in the area and we saw plenty of red deer. Would highly recommend!
Amazing location. Managed to catch a sunny day so the hot tub looking into fields and wooodland is just an absolute treat. Comfiest bed ever. We had the best time and had everything we needed. We didnt realise that Hermitage Castle is only a couple of miles away so felt we had totally secured a gem of a stay! Would highly recommend and will be back if we visit the Borders again. Thank you
Rachael
We stayed here 4 years ago and have been trying to get back we finally managed to get booked in and loved every minute of our stay it is such a lovely cottage the owner has thought of everything and more and the booking site has everything easy to follow. Thank you for a wonderful stay we plan to return soon x
Elaine
We throughly enjoyed our stay at Netherraw, the cottage was first class. It was lovely to come back after a days walking to a warm comfortable cottage, especially when we had been walking in snow. The electric shower was fantastic a definite power shower and the wiif was great the speed was exceptional. Absolutely no complaints from us or the dogs who patiently sat in the garden waiting for something to come along the road which was not very often! A truly peaceful and tranquil area pass our thanks onto your cleaner as she does a brilliant job, the place was spotless.
Third stay. Always clean and tidy. Very friendly and communicative owner.
The property was amazing. So beautiful and rustic looking. Had a lovely getaway with a group of friends and definitely rebooking for next year. I would 100 recommend

What a beautiful, clean, warm, well laid out, spacious cottage, with excellent amenities. Very rural and perfect for a getaway from it all break. Lots of room, good WiFi, plenty of extras. Comfortable beds, fluffy towels and a great enclosed hot tub and garden. Perfect for families, children and dogs. Lots of lovely walks, plenty of places to visit, castles, museums and parks. Nearby shops cater for basic needs and lovely coffee.
Darren
Great place to stay for a quiet relaxing holiday. Great communication with owners. Will be looking to book again.
This is a unique and well equipped holiday home. We really enjoyed our stay in the Borders and would happily return to this property. We could not use the hot tub as it was broken, through no fault of the owner. Although disappointed, we were happy with how this was dealt with. We loved visiting the surrounding area and found everyone to be friendly and hospitable. We will book again.
We found Netherraw to be a clean and spacious cottage which stands alone four miles north of Newcastleton. The ideal place to get away from it all, or as a base to explore the attractions of the borders region.
Lovely and homely, well equipped. Fantastic location and outlook. Owners quick to respond to queries.

We had a fantastic stay very cosy for us all snuggling up in evening , 1 of our kids just had an operation and had cast on right up to his thigh so was on able to put 1 leg in hot tub but wants to come back so he can experience it better
A wonderful retreat in a perfectly peaceful spot ideal for recharging the batteries! Owners were very considerate in checking all was well during a storm.

We had an amazing new year staying at Netherraw cottage. There's plenty of hikes in the surrounding area and the cottage itself is cosy and beautiful, with a fab hot tub. The owner is lovely, really good at getting back to you and very helpful.
Joanne
We had a brilliant stay over Christmas, we didnt want to leave. Cottage was absolutely spotless. Hot tub was a real hit too. Couldnt fault the place at all. Photos dont do it justice.
Sheila
A remote cottage with lovely countryside views ideal location for walking and site seeing. Didn't make use of the hot tub as its winter. Lovely butchers in village just a few minutes drive away. Comfy beds and snuggly duvets. Relaxing stay catching up with family and friends who live locally.
Second time to this property and not disappointed had a great stay home from home
Unfortunately we had double car trouble causing us to arrive a day late and leave a day earlier than planned BUT its a lovely cottage, very homely & peaceful. Lovely to relax in the hot tub. Bed soooo comfy. When we did contact the owner, they always tried to help as much as possible. Definately one to go back to!
Jennifer
The cottage is very well kept, facilities within the cottage are ideal, all necessities were readily available, all we had to do was do a food shop. The hot tub was brilliant, well maintained. The closest village is Newcastleton where you will find a well stocked spar and there is a couple do hotels that do food and a lovely Cafe. Your nearest bigger town is a half hour drive to Hawick. If your looking for somewhere remote and to just chill out and enjoy your own company its perfect.
