The
Old Dairy is a listed sandstone cottage situated in the conservation
village of Darnick adjoining Melrose within 1 mile of the centre of Melrose,
half a mile of the River Tweed and with views to the beautiful Eildon
Hills.
Dating back to the early nineteenth century this former dairy has been converted to an extremely high standard providing spacious and luxurious accommodation for four people.
In addition the cottage has the unusual benefit of an integral garage
providing secure parking as well as safe storage for bikes, golf equipment
and fishing rods (the garage is fitted with rod rack and freezer).
Melrose is a superb base both for the sightseer and the
sports minded.
