An exceptional country house with beautiful gardens and far-reaching views of the surrounding Borders countryside
Heathfield is a delightful country house set in a private position at the end of a long drive, surrounded by beautiful Borders countryside.

Upon entry, the inviting reception hall sets the tone, leading to all the main accommodation. The garden room sits directly opposite the front door and gives an immediate impression of the beauty of the surrounding countryside.
