Description

Built in the early 19th century, Dryburgh Stirling One with its ornate orchard gate and fairytale turrets was originally part of the aristocratic folly of the 11th Earl of Buchan.

Now offered as two outstanding holiday lets, the cottages at Dryburgh have undergone a complete transformation to ensure the highest level of guest comfort throughout.

Sitting at the end of a no-through road surrounded by scenic parkland and woodland, the area is steeped in history and heritage, positioned just a stone’s throw from the romantic medieval ruins of Dryburgh Abbey, the mighty sandstone statue of Sir William Wallace, and the Dryburgh chain link bridge.

With its captivating exterior and plush interior, No. 1 Stirling Towers will ease you into a holiday mindset in no time. Designed for four, the cottage has plenty of space for relaxation and entertaining with its warm ambient sitting room and woodburning stove, while a separate dining room with cosy open fire is an atmospheric spot to indulge in lovely evenings into the wee small hours.

The kitchen is well equipped with all mod cons, including a wine fridge to keep that crisp Chablis at the perfect temperature! There is a separate utility room for outdoor kit and the four-legged members of your party, leading onto the raised patio and lawned garden. Upstairs the two en-suite bedrooms enjoy the most fantastic views of the river and fishing guests can start their day in anticipation taking in the views over the bridge pool.
