It is a studio apartment so bed is a fold down one, however it was lovely a comfy. It was incredible clean. All amenities and gadgets you could ask for were here, including a dishwasher.If you want peace and tranquility, this is the place to go.Eyemouth is a few minutes drive away. Lots of lovely small towns and villages. Dunbar was worth a visit.Hosts left some goodies on arrival, a lovely touch. Hosts were very friendly and welcoming, thankbyou.I had a perfect stay. I hope i get to return in the not too distant future!
Elisabeth and myself enjoyed our stay and although we were out and about a lot of the time enjoying the beautiful coastal walks and amenities the studio apartment was a characterful peaceful retreat to return to, certainly a credit to Ethel and Jim for the care they take of the cottage and external gardens and landscape.
Although the owners were not present when we arrived, we felt very welcome as there was friendly communication on how to find the holiday home, a welcome package and a clean well equipped home! Thanks for all Jim and Ethel
The communication with Jim was really good from the moment we enquired about the cottage.
The cottage is lovely & in a nice quiet location just outside of Eyemouth. The views from the cottage are fantastic. We found its location was ideal for long coastal walks during the day then nice cosy evenings with the log burner lit. Great personal touches like a welcome pack & fresh flowers on the table. Would definitely stay here again if visiting the area.
Our hosts were lovely and was there when we arrived, the accommodation which was allocated on the upstairs of the property was in excellent condition and the decor, first class. We even got to store our bicycles in the garage when not in use. Thank you to you both, and we would highly recommend it for future visitors
The property was listed as 5 minutes from beach,
That did not say 5 mins drive.
Very remote if you donât drive, unless you really enjoy walking, not at all what we anticipated.
Certainly not up to our cleanliness standard,
Host seem friendly enough, we only stayed 3 nights instead of 6, ( we only stayed the 3rd night because we had arranged to meet up with friends) otherwise would of come home after 2nd night.
Me and my partner stayed here for 3 nights and had the most relaxing and wonderful time together the scenery and surroundings are breathtaking with gorgeous wildlife on your doorstep the cottage is beautiful inside and fully equipped with everything at hand the owners Jim & Ethal were very accommodating and really nice people to get to know we would definitely return totally recommended for anyone that needs to get away from it all
We had everything we needed, if the weather had been Colder we could have used the endless supply of kindling which is very rare, you usually have to pay xtra. Only thing with us bearing in mind it was my fault for not reading the advert properly, was the futon, took both of us each morning and night to make it.
Was a great time away place is lovely and clean, owners so friendly and helpful such a lovely part of the country would definitely recommend staying here. Lovely garden area to sit in and relax. Shower is fantastic.
If you want to get away from it all, this is the place
Had a lovely relaxing and peaceful week away from it all.
The cottage is lovely and cosy.
Jim and Ethel were brilliant hosts.
The bottle of wine, eggs and homemade shortbread were such a lovely touch.
Definitely recommended.
The cottage had everything we needed, well appointed kitchen area and the best showers ever! Welcome pack of eggs and biscuits was lovely. Great location for exploring. Our little dog loved the lawn area for playing on.
Lovely, cosy cottage. In a peaceful location. The cottage was very clean, Jim and Ethel greeted us on arrival and went through everything we needed to know, and assured us they were only next door if we needed anything at all.
Would definitely return.
Alemill cottages are set in a lovely rural setting but a very good base for travelling to picturesque bays, harbours & castles. There are plenty of walks, cycle rides, boat trips & historic sites to keep you occupied or it provides a comfy sofa for you to read or dream away an hour or so. Superb fish restaurants & plenty of good pubs for ale & grub. Jim & Ethel were excellent hosts. We spent a very happy week & hope to return.
