The Five Turrets: stay in Scotland in style in a historic four-bed holiday home | House in Selkirk

The Five Turrets has been recommended by Cosmopolitan magazine, The Sunday Times and The Times as one of the best places to stay in the UK.
The stylish self catering home features fairytale castle good looks, set in a B-listed stone-built property at the heart of the Scottish Borders.
Inside is an extraordinary blend of style and substance and enough space to comfortably accommodate eight people in four big bedrooms.
Our chic bedrooms are named after the local rivers - the Tweed, Ettrick, Yarrow and Teviot.
We use award winning Casper mattress - described by Which? magazine as "supportive, breathable, stable, easy to turn over on, doesn t sag or soften, support doesn t deteriorate with time. Cons? None.”
Bedlinen is Egyptian cotton and each room is carpeted and fitted with a modern and efficient radiator equipped with individual thermostat.
Two of the rooms are normally set up as super king size beds, but these can also be split to provide twin beds. One of the remaining rooms features a king size bed and the other a double bed.
​The heart of the comprehensively refurbished home is the unique triple height living space, with sofas arranged around a fabulous wood burning stove, a huge dining table set up to provide commanding views over the stunning Ettrick valley.
There are three lighting zones all controlled by dimmer switches, so you can have it as bright or as romantic as you fancy. And just in case the fire is not enough, there are four powerful modern radiators dotted around the walls to ensure that you are comfortable on even the coldest day.
An oak and glass stair leads up to the mezzanine library, stocked with hundreds of books, more sofas and a smart 49 inch TV connected to the free fast broadband available throughout the property.
The kitchen has everything to captivate the keenest cook and is open into the main living space. We ve kitted it out with high quality appliances and cookware, including super-tough Circulon non-stick pans. The AEG oven does everything you could want an oven to do and even has a steam function for brilliant baking. The Bosch fan is whisper-quiet and there s a full-size dishwasher to make clearing up a doddle.
There s a washing machine and a tumble dryer in a separate utility room and a boot room for cleaning up after a day out on the hills.
The star of the big downstairs bathroom is the lovely walk-in Bristan rain shower, with an additional handset. You ll find it stocked with a range of luxurious Cole & Lewis toiletries. There s also a modern white bathroom suite, a heated towel rail and, of course, fluffy towels. Upstairs you get most of the same features as the downstairs bathroom - including the Bristan rain shower and additional handset - but there s also a nice deep bath to soak in.
To complete the accommodation there s a spacious entrance room, which also features a piano. Because why not?
