The property

Hillcrest is a striking single-storey retreat set on a working sheep farm, surrounded by the rolling landscapes of the Scottish Borders.

With space for up to eight guests, and a warm welcome for pets and horses, it’s the perfect spot to slow down and take in sweeping views of the Minto Hills.

Inside, you’ll find a bright, open-plan living space designed for easy, comfortable days.

The well-equipped kitchen has everything you need, from a coffee maker for early mornings to a dishwasher and washing machine for convenience.

The dining area brings everyone together for relaxed meals, while the lounge, complete with a log-burning stove and Smart TV, is ideal for unwinding after a day of walking or riding across the hills.

The property offers four flexible bedrooms: two zip/link rooms that can be arranged as super kings or twins, a double, and a cheerful bunk room perfect for children.

Three bathrooms provide plenty of convenience, a stylish en-suite with walk-in shower, a family bathroom with accessible tub, and a fully accessible wet room.

Bed linen, towels, a travel cot, and highchair are included, and the home is fully heated with fast Wi-Fi throughout.

Outside, a private patio invites you to relax with a drink, fire up the barbecue, or sink into the hot tub beneath star-filled skies.

Off-road parking is available, and stabling can be arranged for horses.

Farm hampers featuring fresh eggs and locally sourced barbecue boxes add a special touch.

Nearby Hawick offers cashmere mills and friendly shops, while Jedburgh and Selkirk provide market-town charm.

For day trips, Gretna Green is steeped in romantic history, or simply stay local to walk, cycle, and spot wildlife on your doorstep.

Whatever your pace, Hillcrest delivers a true taste of Borders life—peaceful, scenic, and wonderfully inviting.

- Dogs and horses welcome (extra charge; stabling available on request)

About the location

HAWICK

Jedburgh 10.6 miles; Selkirk 11.1 miles; Gretna Green 37.9 miles.

One of the Scottish Border towns and winner of many national floral awards, Hawick is a wonderful location for enjoying a break. Along with the rich history of the town and area which dates back to the 12th century, the town is internationally famous for its fine quality knitwear, and is home to a fantastic collection of shops selling both knitwear and cashmere. It is part of the TextileTrail thanks to the Borders Textile Townhouse where you can learn all about the industry within a restored 16th century tower house. Over in the Hawick Museum and Scott Gallery, you can wander around the exhibits detailing the town's history and marvel at the art, before taking a stroll through Wilton Lodge Park which rests on the banks of the River Teviot and providing 107-acres of grounds to roam. Within the town you can find a leisure centre, pubs, shops and a great selection of restaurants, from fine dining to cheap and cheerful. Hawick is a fantastic base from which to explore other neighbouring towns, such as Jedburgh, Selkirk, and Tweedbank.
