No 1 Braefoot Cottage - country retreat on the River Tweed at The Yair

Tucked away on the private Yair Estate, this characterful stone cottage offers tennis, fishing, and countryside charm just steps from the River Tweed.

No. 1 Braefoot Cottage is a charming Grade ‘B’ listed stone cottage on the private Yair Estate, set on the banks of the River Tweed in the heart of the Scottish Borders. Just 35 miles south of Edinburgh and close to Galashiels, Selkirk, and Melrose, it’s the perfect base for exploring this beautiful region.
Inside, you’ll find a spacious kitchen/diner and a cosy sitting room with a wood-burning stove. Upstairs offers a master bedroom with a super king-size bed, a second bedroom with bunk beds, and a bathroom with a shower over the bath.

Relax in the large enclosed garden or enjoy estate activities such as tennis and fishing on a picturesque stretch of the River Tweed. With walking and cycling routes on your doorstep, including the Southern Upland Way, plus nearby mountain biking, golf, spa treatments, and historic towns, there’s something for everyone.
