We stayed in this lovely Innerleithen apartment for a long weekend and had a fantastic experience from start to finish. Communication with the owner was excellent – she provided clear directions to find the property and sent us a really helpful 20-page PDF full of local walks and recommendations for things to do in the area.The apartment itself is set above a shop on the High Street and is spread over two floors, giving it a real sense of space. The first floor has a bright, comfortable living area, and the bedrooms are tucked away upstairs, which made it feel like a real home from home. Everything was spotlessly clean, thoughtfully presented, and well-equipped – we had everything we needed for a relaxing break.The location is ideal, right in the heart of Innerleithen with shops, cafés, and local amenities on your doorstep. We made good use of the walking guide and explored some of the local trails – all well worth doing. The area is also a hotspot for mountain biking, so it’s perfect for more adventurous visitors too, though we didn’t try that this time.All in all, a very comfortable and convenient place to stay in a beautiful part of the Borders. We’d definitely return and happily recommend it to others.

We fell in love with everything Lucy Squirrel has done with her childhood home! Absolutely gorgeous. I could stay for weeks. I will go back to Innerleithen just to stay at her glorious home! The back yard is beautiful and so peaceful and the location is perfect for hiking, biking, yummy bakeries, etc.

We came to Scotland for the first time ever and Lucy was amazing to us, giving good suggestions and keeping in touch.

The property is extremely well equipped and we had everything we needed, thank you. If cyclists, (we are not) it is equipped to support this activity which is extremely popular in this area. Located above a shop on Innerleithen Main Street it accessed by a metal staircase (fire escape). Since we were on a three week trip, we had cases so these stairs and a very narrow staircase indoors were problematic. Furnishings have obviously been well loved and perhaps some of the highly used items (dining mats for example) could be reviewed for replacement. We loved the area and we really enjoyed our time there.
