Parking is to the side of the cottage, where there is a shed that provides secure storage, and on the other side is an enclosed, gravelled garden (with furniture). There is also a useful utility/laundry cupboard on this level that houses the washing machine and drying facilities, as well as a modern family bathroom that completes the indoor accommodation. There are lovely expansive open views to be admired throughout the cottage and they can particularly be enjoyed from the cosy upstairs double (can convert to twin) and twin bedrooms. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need to cook up a storm and there is a handy twin bedroom downstairs with zip-link beds that can easily be converted into a king-size double bed if necessary. The charming sitting room is warmed by a traditional open fire with a dining area alongside and window seats at either end of the room. This stone built former shepherd’s cottage has been modernised to create a delightful holiday home that offers comfortable accommodation in real tranquillity and seclusion. Bowismiln Cottage is set in a peaceful spot up 1.5 miles of private track in the rolling Scottish Borders countryside, on the Riddell Estate between Lilliesleaf (2 miles) and Selkirk (6 miles).
