    The property was set in a lovely, quiet area and was very secluded from the hustle and bustle that certain places in Scotland can offer. It was beautiful inside and out. The property was in amazing condition and had everything you could possible...

Borthwick Castle View is set in a historical picturesque valley 16 miles south of central Edinburgh. The luxury accommodation with private entrance features a bedroom at mezzanine level, fully equipped kitchen, shower room, log burning stove and stunning views across the valley to Borthwick Castle. It is the perfect place for a rural escape, but still within easy reach of Edinburgh and less than 30 miles to many scottish border towns and coasts with both train and bus services available. You have exclusive use of the annex for your stay with your own private entrance. Walk in through the patio doors into a double height spacious lounge where you can relax in front of a traditional wood burning fire. You also have your own private kitchen and shower room. The double bed is located on the mezzanine level. Car parking is available.
We are a family of five, Emmie, Ryan, our two kids Aaron and Charlie and of course Zeebah our super friendly cocker spaniel. we love to travel, whether that be here in Scotland or around the world - you just can't beat it! Love nature, the great outdoors, reading, music and meeting new people!
Borthwick is a small hamlet in the picturesque valley overlooked by the 15th Century Borthwick Castle, with the mark of Cromwell's cannonballs etched into the wall from the failed 1650 siege. The castle was visited by Mary Queen of Scots in 1563 and 1567 and more recently used for filming the film Outlaw King. There is lots of nature in Borthwick valley, such as owls, deer, geese, herons and other animals. Walkers and cyclists are spoilt for choice withthe option of a woodland walk through Currie Woods to nearby Crichton Castle, Vogrie Country Park and the Innerleithen cycle route all being closeby. The wider area has distilleries, a mining museum, horse riding, golf courses and Arniston House. Nearby, East Lothian has a range of spectacular beaches. Edinburgh city centre is 16 miles away where you can enjoy a huge range of cultural, historic and architectural attractions or hit the shops for some retail therapy, cinemas, museums or the Arts Festival and Festival Fringe in the summer. Closer by is Gorebridge, a nearby village which has a selection of shops, takeaways and services. There is also a 24 hour Tesco Superstore and petrol station less than 7 miles away.
