Viewlaw Lodge Reviews

David Clarke
Overall, we had a lovely stay. The place was beautifully renovatedand the style really impressed us. We did notice a few maintenance and cleaning issues that seemed to have been raised before but weren't fully sorted, which was a bit frustrating. The dog rules only being shared at arrival was awkwardand the hot tub's jet pressure and broken cover did spoil some of the fun. Still, we enjoyed our time here, despite those small annoyances!
Emma Parker
What a lovely stay! The cottage is cosy and perfectly situated for exploring the area, with plenty of attractions just half an hour away. We enjoyed some great walks nearbyand the town is charming with friendly locals. The only tiny downside was the fridge-it's a bit on the small side, so we had to shop more regularly. But honestly, it didn't ruin anything. We'd definitely return, it's such a nice spot!
Alex
The cottage was super cosy and nicely decorated, making it a perfect spot to explore the east coast of Scotland. Thanks a lot! We'd happily come back again.
Emma Clarke
We'd been looking forward to staying here after reading all the reviews, but honestly, the hot tub area was a letdown. The cover was broken, filthyand a real pain to lift and put back. The whole space looked neglected, with a BBQ cover just lying around and the table was grubby. The annoying spotlight kept turning on every time we moved, which was frustrating. On the plus side, the lodge was well equippedand the log burner was lovely. The bed was low with an open coil mattress, but the staff handled a few issues well.
Martin
The house was really nice, cleanand modern, which we appreciated. The hot tub was fantastic, even though it's not directly connected to the house. Duns is such a charming spot with plenty of eateries and fun places nearby. We loved exploring the forest and river walks with our dog!
Oliver
We really enjoyed our stay! The cottage was spotlessly clean, warmand had everything we needed. We knew beforehand there was no back door, but having to go out the front and around to let the dog out was a bit of a hassle, especially since the garden is Astra turfed and the dog isn't allowed to biz. The location is fantastic - perfect for walking through Duns Square and into Duns Castle Estate. Plus, North Berwick is only half an hour away, which is great for days out!
Sam
We had a fantastic stay! The lodge was super clean and well-equipped, making it really cosy especially with the log burner going. The hot tub was a real treat after a day of walking with our dogs. Location was perfect for exploring - loads of lovely walks nearby, beaches about half an hour awayand Loch Lomond just over two hours but totally worth the trip. The local folks were friendly too. We definitely want to come back! Great place, great areaand a truly lovely time overall.
James

Emma
