Eildon Melrose Holiday Cottages & Log Cabins - Hamiltons

Hamiltons is located at Dingleton Mains Farm, two minutes from Melrose's beautiful market square and historic town centre. As a one bedroom cottage it is particularly suited to couples or individuals but it can also work for large groups (we have 6 other holiday cottages on the same site), small families (we can provide cots and high chairs and there's loads of space in the bedroom for a cot) and guests with dogs (dogs must be over 1 year old, max 2 per cottage, £20 charge per dog, please mention when booking). If you like walking, with or without a dog, you will love the fabulous walks from the doorstep and we have a handy hosepipe available to wash off muddy boots or dogs. The 3 peaks of the Eildon hills, right behind the holiday cottages, are an iconic landmark in the area and a good challenge for keen walkers and adventurers. Our holiday cottages are situated on a 2 acre site with an orchard, woods and open garden areas with picnic tables and BBQs. We are accessed via a private road with no passing traffic so children can play safely and dogs can be walked off the lead.

Melrose has a unique mix of independent shops and a superb eateries. For guests wanting to cook, there's a great butcher, two bakers, a greengrocer and a delicatessen all offering fantastic local produce. Or if you prefer a bit more convenience there's also a good Co-op supermarket in Melrose or several large supermarkets in Galashiels, around 5 miles away. For eating out there are several superb restaurants and cafes in Melrose and there's also several takeaway options too that will deliver delicious food to the holiday cottage. We have a list of recommended eateries in our cottage welcome folders to help guests find the best places.
