Birkenside Cottage is a peaceful haven, located at the end of a track, in the midst of a forestry reserve, in the heart of the Scottish Borders. The garden is generous, bordering a forestry r

eserve on three sides, & fields on the other. There are no neighbours, no one overlooking, no noise to mar your peace. Bought as a ruin in the early 90s and painstakingly restored over 30 years, Birkenside Cottage is a haven of peace and tranquillity in the heart of the Scottish Borders. The house itself offers two double bedrooms, one bathroom, a modern kitchen and comfortable living room. Set on either side of a traditional chimney, the kitchen and living room feature wood burning stoves, bringing warmth and cosiness to both spaces. The garden is generous, and borders a forestry reserve on three sides, and fields on the other. There are no neighbours, no one overlooking, no noise to mar your peace bar bird song and the breeze in the trees, no artificial lights to cloud the night skies, no one around but you, the birds and the odd shy rabbit or deer.
