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!

Ideal!

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 House

Beautiful place to stay!

We loved staying at Neidpath, it was a beautiful, clean, and cozy cottage. We had all of the amenities we could need and loved that it had so many walking trails and was so close to Peebles. Everyone was very friendly and I would 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 !

Another great stay at Barns Bothy

This is a returning visit to Barns Bothy for us as we stayed in the Library last year for my son's wedding and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We returned to the Bothy in October for a lovely few days. Cosy accommodation for two with everything you need for a home from home comfortable stay!! We will definitely be back again soon.

Lovely stay at Barns Bothy

Excellent stay at Barns Bothy. We revisited it after staying in the Library for our son's wedding in July. The Bothy is a great retreat to get away from it all. The place was immaculate on arrival. Will definitely be back.

Relaxing short break

Have visited Neidpath cottages before but not the Bothy. Had yet another relaxing break in a lovely location. The Bothy is lovely and cosy for two and very well equipped with a private garden.

A wonderful short stay in beautiful Borders countryside.

Barns Bothy is a great place to stay. It is a well equipped, clean , comfortable haven for two. All the online communications were clear and helpful. The surrounding area is beautiful. The stairs up to the bed on the mezzanine are steep which I imagine could be a problem for those with limited mobility. We have already recommended to friends.

Charming, Peaceful, and Full of Character

Staying at Barns Bothy during our friends’ wedding weekend at Neidpath Castle felt like discovering a secret retreat that belongs in a storybook. Tucked between green fields and old stone walls, the bothy had this quiet magic about it, like time slowed down just a little while we were there. The space itself was simple in the best way. It was warm, inviting, and completely unpretentious. From the moment we stepped inside, we felt a sense of calm. There was something grounding about the exposed stonework, the worn wood, and the way the light filtered through in the morning. It was clear that this place has been gently loved and well cared for. It had everything we needed, but more importantly, it had character. After the buzz and beauty of the wedding celebrations, coming back to the bothy felt like a deep breath. We sat outside under the fading light, sipped local gin, and just listened to the countryside. It was peaceful, personal, and somehow unforgettable in its simplicity. A rare kind of stillness that stays with you. Only a short drive from Neidpath, it made the perfect base for the wedding weekend. But truthfully, Barns Bothy stands on its own. A little corner of Scotland we won’t soon forget.

8/10 Good

Its a stylish retreat

After a long drive the cottage was very welcoming - warm and cozy and well equiped. The cottage felt spacious. There were comfortable seating to relax infront of the very efficient log burner. It was nice to have a reasonable sized a table to eating at. The kitchen was compact but workable with all the expected appliances. The bathroom was suprisingly big. The bed was confortable and it was fun lying in bed looking up at the stars through the velux windows. We were visiting for a wedding at the castle (which was also great fun in a wonderful setting). One thing to rememder is to book the taxi to the castle - we used Gold Star who were prompt and friendly.

Wedding weekend

Really lovely weekend at The Bothy. Wonderful welcome pack - particularly as it’s quite far from shops - we needn’t have brought half what we did! Had a fun few minutes trying to get the fire fan going (instructions would have been great). The big problem for us was that having booked it on the Neidpath website, we assumed it would be near the castle - where we were attending a wedding. Having to drive there (and back) somewhat spoiled the occasion. A proper map on the website of the property positions would be very helpful - who knew that the ‘Barns’ properties are on the Barns Estate - totally different place?!

Wish we’d stayed longer

We just completed a three night stay at Barns Bothy, and our only complaint was that we did not stay long enough. Upon arrival, I found the accommodation to be extremely clean, well, equipped to a high standard, and even had some nice touches, such as Eggs, butter, milk, etc. I was also pleasantly surprised in that from the pictures it appeared more rustic than it actually was. A wonderful, safe location not far from Peebles, the space had a wonderful shower with plenty of hot water, luxurious towels,great Internet, and smart TV with all the streaming apps. Plenty of great walks right outside your doorstep. Check-in was super easy with a lockbox. Next time we will be sure to book longer.
