The West Lodge.vist scotland 4 star self catering

The West Lodge was recently re-built to form a spacious self-catering property, adjoining the West Gate of the castle grounds. The original fabric of the building, which dates from around 1820, has been retained while a contemporary element has now been added. It has been finished to the highest standard of comfort and includes Canadian pitch pine floorboards and locally-quarried flagstones.

The oldest part of the building now forms a double-height kitchen and sitting room area with original wooden beams, an oversized stone fireplace and wood-fired stove. A glazed sun-room looks across surrounding lawns and leads to the newly-created bedroom wing. Sleeps six: two king size double rooms; one twin room; three modern, stylishly appointed bathrooms. Free WiFi. Holiday house that accepts dogs.

Garden Cottage

A luxurious and romantic hideaway for two. Adjacent to the former kitchen garden at Wedderburn, it has views to the South facade of the castle and the Cheviot Hills. The first floor bedroom has a full-height window framing the view of the castle. A huge stone fireplace, complete with wood-burning stove, provides the focal point for the sitting room and the bright kitchen has French doors looking out across a spacious private lawn to the front. The floorboards that now add to the warm, atmospheric feel of the cottage were all cut from a single ancient ash tree that grew beside the castle and fell in a storm. Complimentary WiFi.
