Located in Berwick upon Tweed in the Scottish Borders, Cow Parsley is a charming rural hideaway that accommodates up to four guests. The hut features a clever use of space with a double bed and single bunk bed, as well as seating that converts into an additional single bed. It includes a small galley kitchen, a breakfast bar dining space, and a bathroom with an electric shower. For cooler months, the hut is insulated and has heating options available.
Guests can also hire Colin, a retro caravan for an additional fee, which provides a fun mini adventure for younger family members. Pets are welcome, with kennels available on site if needed, and horses can be accommodated with prior notice. Cow Parsley is situated alongside two other shepherd's huts, Foxglove and Teasel, each sleeping up to four guests, making it ideal for group holidays.
The cabin is set in a paddock with picnic tables, garden furniture, and the option of a fire pit upon request. Parking is available nearby, as vehicles are not permitted in the paddock. The hut is not particularly suited for babies, and children should be supervised around the adjacent pond. Amenities such as bed linen, towels, toiletries, and Wi-Fi are provided, and heating options include electric tubular heating and a 'real flame effect' stove.
Overall, Cow Parsley offers a peaceful retreat for guests to enjoy the simplicity of rural life, with the option of exploring the surrounding natural beauty and engaging in various outdoor activities such as fishing, swimming, horse riding, and mountain biking. With its cozy accommodations and rustic charm, Cow Parsley provides a unique glamping experience in the idyllic Scottish countryside.
