About this property

A light filled studio space, with large bathroom and balcony bedroom

Barns Bothy is a newly renovated and extremely comfortable bolt hole, in a beautiful setting. Comfortable bed, spacious bathroom, log burning stove and well equipped kitchen. Large garden and room to store your bikes. Lots of heavenly walks from the front door. Enjoy this perfect space for two people, or take Barns Library and Barns Tower, both next door for a group of up to 10 friends.
The space
Barns Bothy is light filled, warm and comfortable. A perfect place to hide away for a few days from the hurly burly of life. Plenty of breathtaking walks right from the front door, and a pretty garden to spend time in.
Guest access
Guests can enjoy walking extensively in the Barns Estate. The Arboretum is just opposite the Bothy, and there are woodland, riverside and hill top walks in every direction.
Other things to note
If the Bothy is already booked for your preferred dates, we do also have 2 other unusual and luxurious properties just nearby at Barns Library and Barns Tower. Both of these can be booked either directly or through VRBO.

Beautiful wee cottage

We had a wonderful stay at Barns Bothy. It's a beautiful wee cottage, clean and comfortable. The shower was great, too! It was so convenient for us as we had our wedding at the walled garden. The only thing I would recommend as an improvement is a later check out time, specially if there's been an event at the venue. Super stay, would recommend!

A Romantic Getaway

My husband and I rented Barns Bothy for our 1st wedding anniversary and it was incredibly lovely. A great option for those who want to getaway yet be close to quite a few laces to see. The place was so nicely decorated, updated, clean, had stocked some snacks/groceries for us, and had much charm. The admin team for the estate was incredibly lovely. We would recommend this place for anyone coming to the Scottish borders.

The Bothy - A Perfect Autumn Break

This is our second stay with Neidpath Estate, our first was in Barns Tower and loved it, so we knew we wouldn’t be disappointed with The Bothy. As soon as we arrived we felt welcome. The property was warm and cosy, beautifully furnished and well equipped. The housekeeping team prepare everything so nicely for guests and that adds to that homely welcome. When we emailed regarding booking an extra night, the request was dealt with quickly and very efficiently. We know we will be back!

A few miles outside Peebles which has a good selection of independent shops and eating places. Good bus connections to Edinburgh. Great walking country.

The Bothy was perfect for our stay in the Borders, peaceful and secluded, and we were given some nice extras like fresh bread and biscuits. Comfy and cosy, perfect for two. We will definitely stay here again.

Lovely little Bolthole in beautiful countryside

This is our go to spot for visiting family in Peebles. We have stayed in Barnes Library which is great if another couple is joining you. We opted for Barnes Bothy as it was just the two of us this trip. It did not disappoint. Cosy little place and we were provided with a welcome assortment of supplies on arrival. Although it is out of the town, it is not that far (10mins) and the reward is well kept garden, lovely views and walking opportunities. Looking forward to a winter visit and the log burner !
