The cottage is in the perfect location.. It is very well equipped, comfortable and the wifi fast enough to keep our teenager happy! The walks from the cottage are spectacular and St Abbs has lovely places for lunch if you just want a quick stroll and some fresh air. We will definitely be returning

Mr Luke, August 2020

Cottage rather dated but it adds a certain charm to the place.. As the cottage lies at the end of a farm track road it can get rather muddy after a period of rain. Overall had an excellent holiday , lots to do and explore and great central point for calling at nearby villages and towns.

Mr Brooks, December 2019

December 2019

Mr Lambeth, December 2019

We had a wonderful time! They had literally thought of everything! From pads and paper, jigsaws and books! We had a magical Christmas, beautiful walks immediately on our doorstep! We of course had to watch Avengers Endgame whilst we were there which was filmed in the harbour immediately below the cottage! We will definitely be back! Thank you for having us!

Dr Bamford, February 2020

The cottage is lovely and cosy and we loved every minute of the holiday.. The national park is about 10 metres away from the cottage so it was ideal for walking out dog. The area around the cottage is stunning with St Abbs Harbour only half mile walk away. Lovely unspoilt area already thinking about returning next yesr. Will use the same cottage

Mrs Jackson, December 2019

Mrs Brown

October 2018

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Near Bank Cottage.. It is situated in a beautiful location and the cottage was clean, well equipped and very cosy. An ideal place to recharge your batteries but not too far from the attractions of the coast.

Mr Holman

September 2018

No towels supplied, more baggage to pack, Bed linen not ironed ! ! But a nice cottage to hire,

We have been coming to this cottage for quite a few years now and it never fails to meet our needs.. Lots of places to visit and walks to satisfy the keenest of walkers.

Mrs Easton

Near bank cottage at St Abbs is everything you would want from a holiday home.. It's extremely well equipped and comfortable and the garden leading off the living room is a beautiful sun trap with loads of outdoor seating and bird feeders that attract loads of birds. St Abbs, Coldingham and eyemouth are all in close proximity and are lovely places to visit. A super location for exploring the coastline and a short drive to Edinburgh or Northumberland. Great place 5 star. Would definitely come again ... Probably many times!

March 2018

Great place to stay, cottage was just as expected.. Location is great for walking and not far from main towns like Berwick or Dunbar. We will be returning later inyear when prices are lower.

Mrs Cheetham

July 2016

We have stayed here before and return because it is such a lovely, well appointed cottage. The location is great too, especially if you like walking, nature, culture and history. It's always a pleasure to return and see familiar faces at St Abbs.

We have been using this cottage for four years now and it is always excellent. We will be back again next year.

R N

November 2015

In an area of lots of opportunities we made - in our third visit to this cottage in we think 9 years- full use of our break visiting towns, coastal communities etc etc. It is a fair trek from Dorset but frankly its location is superb. It was extremely comfortable and I must say the shower was one of the best and makes my new one at home seem somewhat inadequate

Ms Tillier

October 2015

Very relaxing, pretty and homely cottage. Everything you could need was provided in the cottage right down to the prepared coal fire. Won't hesitant to come back.

August 2015

Visit this cottage every year, it's turning into a second home. Excellent stay and have booked again for next year already.

Van Mil

A lovely cottage, decorated and furnished with great care and taste. The surroundings are beautiful. We had nice walks along the coast, among the sheep.

Mrs Blackburn

July 2015

The Cottage and location could not have been any better. One of the best Cottages we have ever stayed in.

Mr Collett

June 2015

This was our second stay at this property. Once again lots of wildlife was seen without leaving the house and there were numerous varieties of birds in the back garden. There were excellent walks straight from the doorstep. Just a perfect place for a lazy break, with the opportunities to travel further if the mood takes you. An ideal location for visiting other Scottish Border attractions. Would highly recommend Near Bank Cottage.

Mr Walton

May 2015

The location of Near Bank Cottage is superb; we hardly had to use the car. Whether walking on the Nature Reserve Cliffs, taking a bus into Eyemouth and walking back, or just strolling into St Abbs for a coffee, our stay is always relaxing and reviving. Fred keeps the house very clean and it was a real bonus when he texted us to say we could get in early. As the weather was great we made full use of the garden, which in the evening was the perfect place for post-walk relaxation. The cottage offers everything we need for a successful holiday and we hope that the owners will accept the suggestions below in the same spirit as they are given - to help make a fantastic holiday cottage even better!

Lynne C

March 2015

A lovely dog-friendly cottage, perfectly equipped and tastefully decorated. So nice to have a roaring coal fire on a chilly night. Cottage is surrounded by wild life and it was an ideal location for some serious chilling with cattle and sheep for neighbours. Just a step away from the coastal walk [which turned out to be a bit hard-core on a windy morning.] Lovely little village of St Abbs is a pretty spot with friendly locals. Next village of Coldingham has a couple of great pubs & is also dog friendly: especially the New Inn. One of the few cottages we would return to.

Mr Bett

February 2015

This cottage is a hidden gem. My family and I wanted to get away from all the techno gadgets that kids have today and do a bit of family bonding and it was just perfect! We will definitely be back. Thank you!

Mr Thomas

Accessible cottage in a beautiful setting, perfectly decorated and dog friendly!

December 2014

A home from home and a very relaxing break. Would come back next season.

Mrs Lockyer

October 2014

Cosy and comfortable cottage, in quiet location but with stunning scenery on the doorstep.

August 2014

This is the second time we have stayed at this Cottage, everyone had a great time. Remembered to take food for the bird table this time and saw everything from sparrows to woodpeckers. Will return again next year and for many more years to come.

Mr Alcock

Near Bank Cottage is in a very peaceful location with lots of wildlife and beautiful coastal scenery nearby. The cottage itself is very comfortable and cosy and we felt at home right away. The garden was a particular bonus as it was quiet (except for the chatter of the many birds that frequented it) and was a great place to sit and admire the countryside view or read a book. The local shop in Coldingham was well stocked and the beach was unspoiled by any man-made promenades, etc.

June 2014

Peaceful and tranquil, St Abb's is simply beautiful and St Abb's Head walk was literally as you step out the door. We loved this cottage and its location.The cottage is deceptively roomy, has all you could need and is clean, pleasant and cosy.

Mr Minshull

Every bit as good as it was last time we stayed there. The location is perfect.

Mr Mayes

May 2014

Mrs Wright

August 2013

We had a fantastic holiday. The cottage was well furnished and delightful. The scenery was beautiful, you couldn't have asked for anything more. Thank you!

This was our 4th holiday at Near Bank Cottage and as always a pleasure to be able to stay at this wonderful cottage. It is well appointed, comfortable and in a superb location. It is probably the best cottage we have ever had!

Mrs Dancer

July 2013

A perfect cottage surrounded by an amazing coastline. We will return.

Was an excellent position for all amenities. Enjoyed the wildlife on the doorstep and the walks. Will return again next year, we have been coming to St Abbs for 11 years this was the best accommodating yet.

November 2011

The cottage was warm and welcoming, lovely garden and an open fire - fuel was included in the price. A good base for walking, and visiting country houses etc. Nice unusual shops in North Berwick and you can walk down to Coldingham beach from the cottage.

Mrs Mathie

October 2011

The location of the cottage with its access on to St Abbs Head and proximity to other attractions. It was easy to reach major road networks but the cottage was secluded and restful.

August 2011

We loved the cottage, stunning scenery and wildlife.

Mrs Mather

July 2011

It was a comfortable character cottage in a superb location with walks from the doorstep. It was delightful to sit out in the garden and enjoy the wonderful rural location.

Mr Dews

I liked the location. Walking from the door. Very cosy and comfortable. Everything was spot on and made for a very enjoyable holiday.

June 2011

This was the fifth time we have stayed at Near Bank Cottage. Each time the owners have upgraded something to make the stay even more pleasurable. This time it was the bathroom. The refit that has provided a shower was inspired! We love the position of the house, the garden, the quiet surroundings - I could go on. This is the ideal place to chill. And if you love wildlife, well... I'd like to specially mention the housekeeper. My wife left some jewellery at the house. As soon as she heard about this, she went back to the house to confirm it was there, and posted the items to us at the first available opportunity. Not only that, but they had been packed with the utmost care and sent Special Delivery to arrive the next day. Great service!

Mrs Dobson

May 2011

The position of the property, secluded but not too far from amenities and road routes. The area is beautiful to walk in, the coastline amazing, the bird life entrancing and not many people - just what we like. The garden was lovely to sit in at the end of a day's walking.

Quite simply a little bit of heaven on earth. We loved it so much, we came straight back and rebooked for later on in the year - What better recommendation is there?

Mrs Spurrier

April 2011

The area is stunning and the cottage location is excellent. We really enjoyed the natural beauty.

Mrs Sunley

March 2011

The peace! The location of this property is nothing short of excellent. We loved is so much that we came home and immediately booked another week in September! I think that says it all!

Mr Clay

November 2010

We were warm and cosy. So many different birds visited the garden. Lovely walks both around the Nature Reserve and along the coastal paths. A real taste of 'living down the lane'!

Mrs Cruickshank

September 2010

The photographs on the website and in brochure do not do justice to this lovely, well cared for and warm feeling property.

Fiona

The whole experience was lovely. The cottage was spacious and spotlessly clean, and in a lovely position. We spent ages sitting out in the pretty rear garden, and we loved the cattle and sheep trotting past the front door in the mornings! This is a place to relax in, with wonderful countryside and everything you need really. I loved it.

Mrs Smith

July 2010

Beautiful countryside, lovely cottage, made us feel very comfortable. Rural position but within walking distance of the village.

Mrs Stewart

A cosy traditional cottage in an excellent setting for walking and relaxing. Fantastic scenery. Lots of history and wildlife. Hardly needed to use the car at all. Secluded garden for relaxing after a days walking. Locals very friendly. The second hand charity bookshop at the Priory Gate raises money for the village and is a real treat for book lovers - I came home with plenty of bargains!

Mr Murray

June 2010

Beautiful area, weather was kind to us and the cottage was superb.

Mrs Swan

May 2010

A comfortable, cosy, well equipped cottage set in a beautiful area. Plenty of walks and bird watching available. Good pubs only a mile away

Mr Mrs Smith

Thank you for a lovely holiday, the cottage was warm and cosy and a perfect location for our Collie dog to get as much exercise as he wished, not only in the garden but all along the cliff tops and the beaches out to Coldingham. We found everything we needed in the cottage and found it very clean and tidy on our arrival. We can definitely recommend the cottage. Also we had a really good meal at the New Inn in Coldingham, good food friendly service. We would recommend it to your guests.

Mr Berry

April 2010

Great location for a quiet break with a dog who likes to walk! Loved the genuine nature of the cottage and the working farm next door.

Mr Lee

February 2010

The area is fantastic and we will visit again through Sykes

Very fine clean I would like visit St. Abbs again

December 2009

An excellent location for walking and relaxing. The house was woderful.

Lovely cottage, cosy, clean, and well equipped. Beautiful countryside around, excellent walks along the coastal path, pretty harbour. Worth visiting - Paxton House, Dirleton Castle, Cove, Berwick-upon-Tweed and Edinburgh (take the train from Dunbar).

John

My wife and I found the well equipped cottage ideal for our needs. The cottage was clean, warm and comfortable. Situated at the edge of the nature reserve it is peaceful and has walks right from the door. We liked the enclosed garden which was handy for our dog and relaxing in the evening.

We very much enjoyed our stay and the house was in very good condition and very cosy - it was the second stay there. I am surprised this survey has arrived after so long!

We had a wonderful week here. The garden is very private and catches the sun all afternoon. There are a number of walks directly from the door.

Mr Holt

November 2009

The area was gorgeous. There was a lovely walk from the front door of the cottage. The people we met were very friendly and welcoming, especially the Post Master in the village shop.

Mr Armstrong

House was very clean and homely. Very comfortable in the evening with the fire lit. Lovely garden and peaceful area. Loved the whole holiday. Wish it lasted longer. Nice quiet holiday walking the dog(plenty of local walks from the doorstep). Fantastic sandy beach nearby.

Mrs Cooper

July 2009

The cottage location near the nature reserve was excellent. The inside of the cottage and the lovely garden outside were a delight to return to.

Mrs Bearder

Everything about the holiday was excellent. It was our first time in the area and the scenery was really beautiful. St Abbs was a lovely place to relax and had two good cafes to eat during the day. We found the bus service which was at the end of lane really useful and several times we went to Eyemouth and Burnmouth and walked back along the coastal path and also to the town of Berwick which was a really interesting place. We would love to return to explore further. Altogether a really excellent holiday

Mr Brown

May 2009

We had a lovely quiet and relaxing holiday in tranquil surroundings.

Mr Mrs Pearson

Mr Morrow

March 2009

Ideal location to the surrounding areas of interest. Country side and villages at its best. The accommodation is a praise worthy example of the style of that era. People friendly area.

Mrs Senior

February 2009

The easy access to the coastal paths: The coal fire, the wildlife in the garden and the general comfort of the cottage!

Smith

The cottage was lovely and comfortable. The lounge was a really nice space to relax in. It was also in an excellent location. More or less everything we needed was there (including a helpfully placed hot water bottle!).

Mr Nicholson

November 2008

There was nothing wrong with our holiday which is why I rebooked within 24 hours. The area is clearly outstanding with much on offer for both the naturalist, walker or just reader of books.

Mrs Ellis

October 2008

Perfect location with country and sea walks from the door.

August 2008

The cottage was comfortable. The garden was excellent. The location was idyllic with wonderful walks and scenery. St. Abbs and the surrounding area is a lovely part of Britain - we highly recommend it for a peaceful relaxing holiday.

January 2007

Freedom to come and go. The coal fire and the general situation on the edge of the nature reserve. All the people in the local shops and pubs very friendly and happy to see you. Great walk along the cliffs to Eyemouth.

The kitchen was well equipped, the bedrooms were very clean and had comfortable beds. An ideal cottage for a very quiet and relaxing break, with many walks from the doorstep.

Ms Wilkie

October 2006

Very relaxing and peaceful. It was lovely to take a cup of tea out into the garden and sit watching the birds.

September 2006

We had a really wonderful time at Near Bank Cottage. The service provided by you was excellent at every stage. The cottage and it's surroundings could not have been better for us. We have stayed in a lot of cottages over the years but this is the best yet. It was clean and well appointed, since there were only two of us there it was also spacious. The beds were impressive, of a good quality and very clean. In the past the beds and bedding in some cottages(not Sykes) have been uncomfortable and worn. The decor was clean and in keeping with the cottage theme, obviously well maintained from season to season. The walks from the doorstep, the tranquility of the house, garden and surroundings added to our enjoyment of the holiday. Local people were very friendly and helpful. Local produce epecially meat and fish were easy to obtain for home cooking, equally local pubs served real food using these delicious local ingredients. There was reliable local bus service between Berwick and Edinburgh, calling at villages on the way, a good break from driving and parking. To sum up we loved the place. We hope to rebook, possibly for 2007. We will be able to recommend Sykes cottages to family and friends, in fact we have already started to do so!

Mr Mrs Scott

July 2006

St.Abbs harbour, less than a minute walk away, has stunning views. The Cottage was one of the best we have stayed in, and an excellent location for Scottish borders and North Northumberland. There are good walks from the cottage door. The Tea Garden in St.Abbs harbour was good value for money, the staff friendly and our dog welcomed.

Mrs Potter

June 2006

We had a most enjoyable week and would recommend it to anyone wishing to stay in that area.

February 2006

The location was marvellous, right on the edge of the nature reserve and backing onto the farmer's fields. Far enough from the town, but also close enough to get essentials. The open coal fire was a delight and much warmer than some of the stove-type burners we have experienced.

Mrs Cowen

July 2005

Located at the edge of a nature reserve and close to coastal and inland walks and gardens, the cottage was ideally placed for a peaceful, restful and interesting holiday. It was very comfortable, and well equipped. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday.

Mrs Sykes

June 2005

An excellent location with easy access to cliff-top walks. The cottage was true to the description and we were particularly struck by the cleanliness - it was one of the best we've stayed in and seemed very welcoming.

A very nice cottage and location. We will be going back next year. Everything you could want for a holiday.

Mrs Johnston

April 2005

We loved the open fire - having lived in Northern Ireland we miss our 'turf' fires! An excellent location for touring around. It was great to hear the sound of the sea.

Mr Smithson

March 2005

During one of the coldest weeks of the year we very much appreciated the open fire and the well stocked store of good quality coal.

Ms Goodacre

January 2005

Acommodation was very well equipped, clean and cozy with plenty of fuel provided etc. Photo's of the property on the website dont actually do the property justice!
