Perfect accommodation done to the highest standard. Hosts make you very welcome and nothing is a problem for them. Car is definitely needed if you want to visit places like Peebles, Moffat, Selkirk etc as there is no public transport running from the cottages. Plenty of lovely walks and dogs are made welcome also with their own water bowl and towel 👏👏 everything you require for a staycation. Lovely outside seating at your cottage in the quadrant plus barbecue and ping pong table. Ten out of ten for everything about Hearthstanes. Thank you.
