Sustonica, the first global sustainability standard for holiday lets.
Our aim is to create lasting holiday memories and we intend to do so both responsibly and sustainably.
To deliver on this we've set out a number of environmental and social pledges which help to focus our efforts;
you can read more about them in our Impact Report.
This is why we've partnered with Sustonica, the first global certification for holiday lets,
to support our owners to be more sustainable.
The Sustonica certification focuses on four key areas: energy conservation, water conservation,
waste reduction and promoting inclusiveness. They are on a mission to become the most widely
recognised sustainability standard for holiday rentals and a catalyst to reduce emissions of holiday
lets and influence guests to reduce their own household consumption too.
Properties that display the Sustonica badge have successfully passed the criteria,
which align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Global Sustainable Tourism Council standards,
and their owner has made a commitment to look after our planet as well as you.
"Having stayed previously we knew that we would be welcomed to a lovely clean and relaxing lodge and this was the case yet again."
Shona is such a lovely host and her hamper is always thoughtful and generous. I can’t recommend this lodge enough for its location and beautiful views.
Thank you Anthony, always a pleasure to welcome you and family back to Serena.

"The lodge was beautifully clean, lovely welcome hamper with Banty eggs."
Lots of extras such as tea towels, washing up liquid, board games, tea and coffee, milk; the list goes on. Very well equipped lodge. Comfy beds. Nice and warm. Great views off the decking. Gorgeous Autumn colours out and about in the countryside. The site is tidy and well maintained. Local Border towns great for a look around. Plenty of tourist attractions. The mausoleum is worth a walk, Donkey sanctuary, Mary Queen of Scots house, Jedburgh Jail, Harestanes play park and craft courtyard, Floors Castle walled garden. Would stay again. Thank you Shona.

"Top quality lodge accommodation."
A return visit from a week at a similar time last year. The location of the park in which it is situated allows easy drive access to many surrounding towns and places of interest. The lodge itself lacks nothing in comfort and contents.
Relax or get out and about as it might suit you at the moment.
In our mind, rates above the 5 star status.

With quality furnishings & added touches , e.g luxury shower/bath gels, sumptuous bath towels and a lovely surprise Hamper for us to enjoy ! The location is ideal for exploring the border villages/towns & only 1hr drive to visit Edinburgh. We had a meal at the on-site tavern which was very good & the staff were friendly & efficient.

"The property was lovely."
It was extremely well equipped. A lovely place to stay.
I have a few suggestions. Couldn't use the coffee maker since no instructions. Instructions for everything a good idea then nothing can get wrongly used. I am only 5ft 2 so could not reach the high shelves or properly put anything in the microwave. Good job my husband is taller.
I have a problem with one knee, the last step to the property was very difficult since it was much higher than all the others.
These are not criticisms just how I found the property.
Would recommend it to anyone wanting a holiday in the area.
Hello Elaine,
Thank you for your kind review and the suggestions.
Unfortunately the microwave is integrated in kitchen units therefore cannot be moved.
Instructions for kitchen appliances are in a drawer but i shall make that clear for future guests.
I'm pleased that you enjoyed your stay in Serena and the Scottish Borders.

"We had a very relaxing week at Serena Lodge."
The lodge is cozy and comfortable with all you need for a relaxing break away. Serena lodge is well kitted out and has everything you need. The only negative point I would say was there could have been more crockery left. There was only 2 of us and we managed. It would be tricky if you needed to store leftovers or if there were 4 of you, there would be no spares. The park was very quiet when we visited so it was really peaceful. The welcome hamper was a very nice touch.
