About The Gables
Built in 1867 to serve the former All Saints Church, in the hamlet of Duddo The Gables was the home of the resident Vicar and his family until it became a private residence in 1953. 

We bought the house in 2003 with our first child Jamie on the way.  Fiona came along in 2006.  We all love the space and tranquillity that it brings to our family life. Our guests will experience a relaxing and charming place to stay.

Guests can have their breakfast or morning coffee on our terrace on sunny days
Guests can indulge in the local pastimes of fishing on the world-famous River Tweed and it tributaries, golfing on one of the local picturesque courses, game-shooting, bird-watching at local wildlife reserves, walking or cycling.

The Gables is perfectly situated near the Scottish Borders, between the Cheviots, Northumberland National Park and Northumberland Coastal Area of Oustanding Natural Beauty.  Our home sits on a rise with uninterrupted views of the dramatic natural landscape.
