  • "We had a wonderful stay here at The Antlers."

    I came for the week for some much needed R and R, and because it's not too far from home, invited family to come and go as they pleased to join me on walks or for a delicious curry next door! The house was clean and cosy, and perfectly situated in the town for everything we needed. LOVED having the co-op next door! A great location for walks in North Northumberland or exploring the lovely Border towns. Thank you for the delicious basket of goodies and for providing everything we needed for a perfect stay. I'd love to come back and would recommend to friends. Only improvement might be to provide wi-fi. I wasn't bothered as the 4g was excellent, but it would be useful for anyone needing to do any computer work.

  • "Fantastic stay at the Antlers for our family of 5."

    The cottage felt very homely and was spotlessly clean with a very wide range of facilities. The location is also ideal within easy reach of Edinburgh and coastal areas with a shop next door, an excellent play park for the kids just across the road and a tasty Indian restaurant a few doors down. Welcome treats were an extra touch of class from our hosts who have been exceptionally helpful. Highly recommended and I'm sure we will be back.

  • "While The Antlers was generally well appointed and very comfortable, there were a couple of things that would have made the stay even more complete."

    In terms of the kitchen, some more teaspoons, bowls and a cafetiere would have been very handy. Other than that the kitchen had everything we needed. The other area where the cottage fell down was a lack of wifi. Not everyone is a BT customer these days & wifi has been a standard part of the offering in all the self catering cottages I've stayed over the last 10 years or so. The cottage was very clean throughout and although there's no parking directly outside, we always managed to find a spot either in the small car park nearby or on the street.

  • "The Antlers is a brilliant property in a great location in Coldstream."

    The property is really spacious and very well laid out with 4 big bedrooms and 2 of those are ensuite. A free car park is nearby and there is limited parking on the road. The owners left a welcome gift of some food and wine which was a really nice touch. We had a great stay and will definitely go back.

  • "Really lovely place to stay, extremely clean comfortable and finishing touches are beautiful throughout."

    Pictures actually do not do it justice to be honest it’s a lot bigger than it looks and the kitchen is more beautiful in real life. Plenty of everything for use glasses, cutlery, plates etc. Wee garden is a lovely touch if the weather is nice just to sit and have a drink really peaceful and quiet. The cottage is situated on the main road and parking is free either on or across the road which is fantastic. However it is a main road and can be busy with traffic and cars pulling up to park and use the shop/takeaways but it is nice to a see a busy town. As the cottage window is lower people cannot directly see in the window and with the windows closed you do not hear them it did not bother us however I can see how it could if you are fussy. The cottage is really handy for everything if you’ve had a long day you are 1 minute to any of the food places and the shop is next door. Would recommend :)

    The size of the kitchen was really appealing and made for great family gatherings.

    ! The cottage was amazing from the minute we walked in the door, the owner had thought of everything.

The property

The Antlers is a mid-terrace cottage found in the market town of Coldstream in the Scottish Borders, boasting four bedrooms and enjoying a fabulously central location.

Perfect for a large family or group of friends coming together for a week or weekend, this Scottish Borders cottage is within easy reach of Berwick-upon-Tweed as well as the northern areas of the Northumberland National Park.

Be welcomed into the hallway and find the homely sitting room, with a large sofa and several armchairs to relax in amidst your loved ones, you can wind down before the electric stove-effect fire, adding a classic cottage feel, and enjoy some evening TV.

A large electric range oven with a gas hob sits in the kitchen/diner, so you can rustle up delicious meals and dine at the dining table when you're not tasting the delights of the local pubs and restaurants.

To the back of the property you can find a gravel garden with furniture which receives lots of sun throughout the day.

Head upstairs to find the four bedrooms, including a double with an en-suite shower room, another double, a twin room which has zip/link beds able to be a king-size on request, also with an en-suite shower room, and finally another twin room.

All the bedrooms feature pleasant decor and plenty of storage for your things.

Completing the property is the family bathroom, where a beautiful slipper bath with hand-held shower will allow you to enjoy a relaxing soak.

Just next door to The Antlers is a Co-Op shop so you can pick up any essentials, while the nearest pubs and restaurants are a short walk away.

Just outside the town is The Hirsel, an estate home to a mansion within beautiful grounds, you can learn of the estate's history within the museum, head to the arts and crafts centre to browse some beautifully made items, or enjoy afternoon tea in the tearooms.

The River Tweed is close by and offers a simple way to explore by walking or cycling along the banks.

Visit the northernmost town in England, Berwick-upon-Tweed and delight in the rich history and beautiful scenery here; walk around the town's Elizabethan walls, view the Berwick's three bridges including the iconic Royal Border Bridge, and head to Berwick's Barracks and The Main Guard to learn of the local history.

Keen walkers won't want to miss the opportunity to visit the Northumberland National Park, with the northern area being home to The Cheviot, the highest point in the park, commanding panoramic views of the region.

Spend a fun-filled break in the Scottish Borders at The Antlers.

About the location

COLDSTREAM

Cornhill-on-Tweed 2 miles.

Home to the famous Coldstream Guards, the pretty borders town of Coldstream sits on the northern bank of the River Tweed, and was once a rival to Gretna Green for runaway marriages. There is a museum dedicated to the Guards, a good selection of shops and pubs, or visitors can try their hand at a variety of activities, including cycling, fishing, golf, riding or walking in the beautiful surrounding countryside. The picturesque seat of The Earls of Hume, including former Conservative Prime Minister Alec Douglas-Home, is The Hirsel, an estate to the west of the town with a fine mansion in beautiful grounds through which flow the Leet Waters, famous for a wide range of birds which nest there. With the Scottish borders and North Northumberland easily accessible, this is a fantastic base from which to make the most of the region.
