“Beautiful cottage, we really didn’t want to leave.”

The sea is literally feet away, the views are absolutely stunning. The cottage had everything we needed and was very comfortable. As has been said before the check in and out times are not very friendly and an extra hour at either end would have been great. A lovely relaxing stay, we would love to return.

“Had a great 3 night stay in Partan Cottage.”

Absolutely loved listening to the waves outside. Cottage cosy and very comfy beds. Owner very helpful post and pre stay. Only little negative was couldnt find a hair dryer or any extra black bin liners. Would love to come and stay again some time and would definitely recommend to others.

“Super stay that had to cut short due to a family matter.”

Super cottage kept immaculately. Amazing for wildlife watching: grey seals, Eider ducks, great northern divers and gannets right outside the front door. Would have appreciated more info about the area, perhaps a visitors book for tips and ideas, and clear markings on the bins as had no idea which was mine because none were marked. I feel the 5pm check in is far far too late - a whole day gone, especially in winter, and would urge the owners to consider bringing this forward.

“Fantastic cottage in an amazing setting.”

We had a wonderful few days, would have loved to stay longer. Cottage is clean and well equipped and incredibly peaceful. Our only issue was the check in and out times, an hour on each would make a big difference. However, we can’t wait to come back another time.

“Second time we've stayed there and still impossible to work the TV.”

No information regarding this in the folder. Otherwise a perfect cottage for a peaceful stay.

“Amazing stay with beautiful scenery and overall a clean, stunning cottage.”

The beds were very comfy with lovely bedding and the views were fantastic. A couple of points to overall improve the experience - the check in and check out times are pretty unreasonable, and you cannot have a stand up shower due to the sloping ceiling (bath was amazing, but this could be a problem for some). A note for dog owners there are a lot of ticks in the back garden (obviously cannot be helped but just one to be prepared for). Also - much easier to follow the road access from the other path (instead of the private access marked road).

“Good property, great location.”

Attention to detail really shown through the property. Open plan lounge/kitchen big plus. Bathroom superb. Only minus points were 9:30 check-out and 5pm check- in. Also parking should be marked off to stop other residents taking your allocated space. This was resolved but totally avoidable. Who wants to see their cars from your window!!.

“Partan Cottage and the surroundings were incredibly beautiful.”

The cottage itself was extremely clean, tidy, well kept and had all the amenities needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The only challenge we found was the difficulty of speaking with someone regarding questions regarding stay changes. Otherwise all went perfectly!

“Lovely comfortable cottage in an idyllic location.”

Absolutely gorgeous. But a surprising lack of information about the cottage, its equipment, and the area. And the information about what to do with rubbish was inaccurate - there are no bins marked 6 Partenhall in the specified location. There were no manuals for the equipment and no visitors’ book which might have useful recommendations from previous guests. And despite there being 12 dining plates there were only 3 dessert/cereal bowls and no casserole dish. There were only 2 dishwasher tablets and no spare bin bags.

“We absolutely loved the cottage.”

On arrival, it was warm, which was most welcome on a very cold and windy day, and spotlessly clean. It was also a lovely surprise to find a bottle of red wine to enjoy with our evening meal. Thank you. I would recommend this cottage to anyone visiting the beautiful area. There was only one thing that would make the stay better and that is having a shower rather than a bath. It was a struggle to get in and out of the bath.

“The property was beautiful I would highly recommend it.”

.only one thing I'd say for the cost I think check in 1730 and check put 0930 is both late and too early on reflection of what you pay.

The property

Partan Cottage is a charming former fisherman’s cottage dramatically nestled in a spectacular location at the foot of the cliffs in Lower Burnmouth, just a few steps from the shore and with stunning coastal views of the picturesque working harbour. Having undergone a full refurbishment, Partan Cottage offers modern, high standard accommodation whilst retaining the character and many of its original features such as the range. Open plan living accommodation with cosy under floor heating on the ground floor and two double rooms, both with Jack 'n' Jill access to the bathroom, this gorgeous property is a wonderful place to get away from it all at any time of year. Dolphins and seals are both regular visitors to the bay and can often be seen splashing whilst hunting for food or resting on the sheltered rocks in the cove. From the front doorstep, there are plenty of rock pooling opportunities along the shore just yards away, and the area is renowned for its interesting geological formations ideal for fossil hunting. Fresh crab and lobsters are still landed at the quaint harbour. With its breath-taking uninterrupted sea views and idyllic location, Partan Cottage is a truly enchanting cottage by the sea. The local area has some wonderful countryside and coast with miles of open sandy beaches and vertiginous cliff top walks. There is plentiful open hill country with the Cheviot Hills to the south and Lammermuir Hills to the north offering great scope for walking and exploration. Holy Island, St Abbs with its spectacular diving, the Farne Islands and the wonderful beaches and castles of North Northumberland are all within easy driving distance and the vibrant capital city of Edinburgh is only 40 minutes away by rail from Berwick. ACCOMMODATION GROUND FLOOR Open plan kitchen/dining/living room - beamed with under floor heating. Kitchen area with electric oven and hob, slimline dishwasher, fridge, freezer, washing machine and microwave. Dining table and chairs for 4 guests. Lounge area with wall mounted Smart TV, range (ornamental only), electric stove, comfy seating and sea views. Access to shared rear terrace garden. Stairs to first floor. FIRST FLOOR Bedroom 1 to the rear with king-size bed and chest of draws. Bedroom 2 to the front with double bed, chest of draws, hanging space and Velux window with sea views. Bathroom (Jack 'n' Jill with access from both bedrooms) with roll top bath, hand shower, WC, wash hand basin and heated towel rail. OTHER FACILITIES Private parking for 1 car to the front of the property. Shared steep enclosed terraced garden to the rear with furniture and BBQ area. Bench seating at the front. Underfloor heating downstairs, electric panel heaters upstairs and immersion heater. All electricity, bed linen and towels included in the rent. Steep one way access road leading down to cottages - level exit road towards the harbour. Adults only - regret no children due to the close proximity to the sea wall. No dogs allowed, however the owner does occasionally visit with their dog

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £150.

The tiny fishing hamlet of Lower Burnmouth enjoys an idyllic location at the foot of picturesque cliffs of the Berwickshire coast.

Holy Island, St Abbs with its spectacular diving, the Farne Islands, the wonderful beaches and castles of North Northumberland, and the rolling countryside of the Scottish Borders are all within easy driving distance. Why not visit the vibrant capital city of Edinburgh, only 40 minutes away by rail?
