Old Village Hall

Better signage, as red telephone box was obscured by hedging. Busy road to cross.

This is an amazing place to stay, a brilliantly executed conversion of an old village hall with masses of space inside. Extremely well equipped and very comfortable. Good communications with the helpful owners.

The outside space is limited but the inside is so wonderful that it doesn't really matter!

The property was so spacious and clean, it had everything we could have needed. The beds were very comfortable and I loved how bright the house was.

The Old Village Hall has been sensitively converted to offer a high standard of accommodation. The living area is extremely spacious while three genuinely double bedrooms and three large bathrooms mean everyone can be comfortable. The 'master bedroom' with en-suite is especially remarkable for size and fittings. Kitchen facilities are excellent with a Bosch oven and hob and ample fridge/freezer storage. The property was spotlessly clean throughout. Situated up a quiet cul-de-sac just off the main road the property is peaceful whilst offering easy access to Kelso and other towns in the Scottish Borders. The Host lives locally, was easy to contact via Booking.com and very helpful if a question arose about something.

Everything suited us and all in all the property greatly exceeded the expectations of these 'seasoned' self caterers!

Good location, very near Kelso. The conversion is lovely and really liked the wood burning stove.

The sofa was far too soft for my in-laws. It was also very bright in the morning without proper curtains on the windows.

The peaceful location, excellent conversion and cleanliness. Lovely bathrooms and quality bedding , wood burning stove and plenty of logs. Generous welcome basket. Good quality white goods.

The settees were exceedingly uncomfortable, difficult to rise from, too deep and soft. The cushions slanted towards the floor. Completely unsuitable for proper support. The freezer was completely iced up and would not close properly. The upstairs bathroom towel rail wasn’t working and there was often an unpleasant smell of blocked drains. Some windows require curtains/ blinds to ensure privacy especially in bathrooms and to block early light in summer.

Wow, such a stunning property. Every attention to detail had been thought of , it was spotless and well equipped. The welcome basket was very much appreciated. The bedrooms were spacious and we slept well due to the comfy beds and the quiet surroundings. It was warm and cosy despite it being a large open plan space. It was situated in a perfect spot to explore the Borders. Definitely a real treat.

The only slight negative was the sofa. We know Loaf sofa's are meant for lounging on but we struggled to get comfortable. At one point I got lodged in between the cushions, I felt like the sofa was trying to eat me! Perhaps we were too old to appreciate the design. It certainly didn't stop us enjoying our stay!

There was a lot to like about this property: its size, cleanliness, facilities, parking, and a very nice welcome pack too. A nice quiet location as well. Highly recommended and I would stay at the property again if in the area.

I expected to receive the Freeview TV channels and could not find them: we did not bother the proprietor with this as it was only a minor issue. I expected three rooms, all on en-suite, but nevertheless, there were three bath/shower rooms, so again a very minor point: I had probably not read the property details properly.
