Stunning Property

This house & its location are superb. Amazing views within a quiet corner of historical Jedburgh. The house caters for all with a homely feel which made our holiday memorable & did not want to leave. Even our 13yr old daughter was in love with this property. The host is very welcoming, leaving gifts on arrival which was a lovely touch. Highly recommend this stunning place and cannot wait to stay again

About the host

Hosted by Georgie Bell

I have lived in the Scottish Borders since 2010. I’m a Northumbrian through and through but met my Husband who lives and works on Lothian Estates a large estate surrounding Jedburgh and he convinced me this is ‘God’s Country’
I moved here and continued to work in Northumberland but felt I was travelling a lot so we took the plunge and invested in property so I could reduce my travelling hours and maintain an income.
We thoroughly enjoyed renovating Abbey House in lockdown as a family. We had many scary moments, many laughs and lots of dust.
We all absolutely love Abbey House the view of the Abbey is stunning and the the main bedroom lends itself to lying in bed appreciating the wonder and magic of the Abbey.

Why they chose this property

Abbey House belonged to Lothian Estates and was put up for sale, it seemed the most perfect property to purchase for our new venture.

What makes this property unique

Abbey House once upon a time was the Custodian of the Abbey’s residence lately being a long term let which had resulted in the property being run down and not looked after. We purchased it with a vision of what we could achieve whilst trying to preserve and maintain some of the character of the house.
It was by no means an easy project but having the Abbey situated at the end of the Garden made every visit rewarding.

Abbey House lends itself to being an ideal property to explore the Borders, perfectly situated in a quiet close, five minutes walk from the Town Centre of Jedburgh.
There is ample parking if using a car to travel about and being able to return at leisure to the house with its stunning view of the Abbey.
