Berwickshire
Southern Scotland

Cumledge Mill House is a Victorian mill owner's house set in 24 acres next to the river Whiteadder, a tributary of the Blackadder and Tweed, and is about 15 miles from Berwick-upon-Tweed and the East Coast A1 England to Scotland road. It is the family home of Chris and Maggie Knight who welcome guests to stay for bed and breakfast.

If you are passing through Southern Scotland, or exploring the Scottish Borders this is a haven of peace and civilisation, quiet and rural, with beautiful gardens and mature trees, a tennis court, walks along the river bank (and fishing too if you like), a friendly welcome and delicious dinner. Dinner is optional of course - but much recommended and mostly from local produce, much of which is the from Maggie's kitchen garden.
