Everything you love about Tiny Home Borders: your own private lochan, epic location, off grid credentials, total privacy and amazing views. But with an even bigger woodfired bath, it is ideal for wild swimming, plus a fabulous cedar sauna.
Enjoy outdoor cooking with the Gozney woodfired and gas barbecue and pizza oven!
With outdoor furniture on the deck for those long lazy days, we like to think we have thought of everything to make your stay as special and relaxed as possible.
Of course, succulent venison, beef and lamb which is reared on the farm along with superb locally sourced breakfast boxes, provide guests with a very special taste of the Borders. But we have also handpicked some true ‘Local Heroes’ too, all of which can be pre-ordered and ready for you on arrival or supplied at just the right time!
With luxurious towels, robes, slippers and local toiletries all included as well as homemade granola, jam and marmalade. And when in season fresh fruit and vegetables from the garden and fresh eggs when the hens are laying!
There’s also an unlimited supply of firewood and kindling, a cordless hair dryer, binoculars, yoga mats and paddleboards. And with amazing dark skies, you can enjoy stargazing from underneath the glass canopy using the telescope supplied.
We want to make sure that your stay in Tiny Home is really special and we are happy to supply any extras that you might need, at a charge, please do try to order these before you arrive, and we’ll have everything ready for you.
We are happy to supply Breakfast Packs and if you would like to pre order something delicious for the BBQ, do have a look at our ‘Extras‘ section which has our Rule Water Venison, reared here on the farm. Top ups can also be arranged!
Tiny Home Two’s small interior is cleverly designed to make the most of the space, meaning that the open plan sleeping space does sit directly above the interior living space. The super king bed (twin by arrangement) is accessed by a set of open stairs. It is very comfortable and has its own window, however, if you are claustrophobic then this might not be the best place for you.
Tiny Home has a strict no smoking policy.
Tiny Home is not suitable for toddlers, young children and non-swimmers due to the close proximity of the lochan.
Life jackets are supplied for our guests and must be used when paddleboarding in the lochan. Paddleboarding and swimming at Tiny Home are entirely at your own risk. Swimming and paddleboarding is available in the lochan when conditions allow, we take no responsibility for low water conditions.
Access to the sleeping space and toilet facilities do unfortunately mean that Tiny Home is definitely unsuitable for wheelchair users.
As you know Tiny Home is off grid, and we like to think that we have supplied everything that you will need during your stay. However, there are certain limitations that you should be aware of in your hillside retreat. Please DO NOT PLUG A HAIRDRYER in as this will cause the electrics to overload, particularly when using other lights and so forth. For your convenience, we have supplied a cordless hairdryer, this blows only cold air but does the job! Thank you for your co-operation, it is greatly appreciated.
There is hot water on site though instead of a long shower we would recommend you have a long dip in our woodfired tub.
Your outdoor bath is heated by a woodfire. It is VERY IMPORTANT that you DO NOT let the water out when the fire is still burning or even has any warm embers remaining. It is essential that the fire is totally out before you do so, we kindly ask that you do the following. If you have a bath at night, please leave the water in overnight. If you have a bath in the morning, just leave the water in all day.
With luxurious towels, robes, slippers and toiletries all included, you don’t need to bring too much with you, however, just remember it is a hillside cabin on a farm so do remember to bring outdoor footwear and warm outdoor clothing!
We do have a good mobile signal most of the time with 4G on some networks but if you are looking for WiFi and/or a TV on your break, then Tiny Home isn’t going to be right for you.
The only thing to keep you company is the wildlife and the herd of beautiful red deer which share the hillside location with guests (in their fenced off acres of course).
Our Tiny Homes are located approximately 500 metres off the road, up a track, with clear signage to each private location. This can be negotiated by most cars but if you would prefer to leave your car near the road, you can either walk up or we can transport you to Tiny Home when you arrive.
There is parking right next to Tiny Home Two, though the track down is quite steep and access is at your own risk. There is also designated parking 100 metres away from Tiny Home Two at the top of the track. Access to the sleeping space and toilet facilities do unfortunately mean that Tiny Home Borders is unsuitable for wheelchair users.
