Fantastic Spacious Accommodation
We stayed in "the big hoose" for a Monday to Friday stay. There were 8 of us altogether. This is a fabulously presented house & felt palatial. The bedrooms were spacious & beds comfortable. The house is well maintained and tastefully decorated to reflect it's period. The house is well equipped & the kitchen had absolutely everything you would need. It's in the perfect location for exploring the Scottish Borders & there is plenty of local wildlife to see.

Fun in the sun
The stay was fantastic, what a great property. Lots to explore in the area- if you are into your outdoors look. I further. The hosts were friendly and helpful and helped with some local knowledge which helped with having young kids. If you are lucky you may get a cameo from princess sparkles….a friendly special guest!

Amazing property in a lovely location
My family had an wonderful stay at Broadmeadows last week. The house was amazing...very grand with loads of character, but with all the modern conveniences we were seeking. The house provided a great base for excursions around Scottish Borders including some great hikes, a distillery tour, and a visit to Abbotsford. Dianne was a lovely and very responsive hostess who made us feel very welcome and who treated us to a delicious homemade cake.
