Where to go, what to see…
1 The Devil’s Beef Tub
This dramatic landmark owes its name to the practice of hiding cattle plundered during cross-border raids. Walter Scott wrote: ‘It looks as if four hills were laying their heads together, to shut out daylight from the dark hollow space between them. A damned deep, black, blackguard-looking abyss of a hole it is.’ But don’t let that put you off!

Still one of the best B&Bs I know of
Caroline and Miles were full of helpful tips to make my stay the best it could possibly be
We have stayed at this B&B for years with different owners but we can honestly say Miles and Caroline are the best. The porridge is a must
A warm welcome to a spotlessly clean room awaits you. A guest lounge proved invaluable as a retreat when waking early. Very good value for money in a super part of the world
Ready to make the extra effort to turn good into excellent
I had the best night’s sleep for 20 years
I strongly recommend staying here. It is definitely a six-star service
Simply first class. Couldn’t ask for anything more
If only all b&b accommodation could be like this
