This beautiful stone built holiday cottage dates from the mid 19th century and is located in the Liddlesdale Valley, about 1 mile east of Newcastleton, gateway to the Scottish Borders.
The 2 bedroom cottage sleeps 4-5 and has recently been renovated to a high standard.
The cottage is set in glorious countryside with rolling hills, forests and river valleys, steeped in the history of border conflict.
The local area provides a wide range of recreational activities including, walking, cycling, golf, fishing and horse riding. Kielder Water and Forest Park is within 30 minutes drive and a provides fantastic base for those interested in water sports, walking, cycling and wildlife. The surrounding area is rich in historic monuments including Hermitage Castle and the Border Abbeys of Kelso, Jedburgh and Dryburgh. Hadrian's Wall is within 50 minutes drive.
I have stayed at Sandholm on several occasions and have never been disappointed. This time I took my mum who was equally delighted with the cottage declaring it was the cosiest cottage she had ever stayed in and that a lot of thought had gone into the layout and kitting it out. We would both highly recommend this as a super place to recharge batteries or to pursue outdoor activities.
