Great place with exceptional service.

Great place as a base for exploring the Borders. Overall stay was good. Room was exceptionally clean(had a couple of minor niggles but these were dealt with happily and swiftly). Stayed in a double which was quite small (with only one bedside table). Would 'upgrade' to a larger room if staying again. The best thing about this hotel is the people and the outstanding service they provide-nothing too much trouble and so friendly. Ooh- and good food including a fab breakfast.

Great food, drink and service

Food, bar and service was amazing. Very good quality and price! Shower was a little poor and cold water was as warm as the hot tap. Minor things that can be improved in the future.

Great family room with bunk beds in a separate little area. Friendly staff. Excellent food. Great dinner menu, recommend the steak pie 👍. Room was clean and adequate. Bed mattress needs replacing but I still slept well. No shower in room only tub. Squeaky door and fluorosis but an old building so to be expected. Not all channels came in on TV. Good advice on running and walking trails. Excellent breakfast.

A wonderful small private country hotel set in the open countryside of the borders of Scotland about 40 minutes from Edinburgh. The staff are very friendly and wiling to go the extra mile to make your stay memorable. The food is wonderful, both Dinner and Breakfast. The hotel itself is very comfortable, and has that welcome feeling, the room whilst quite small was very good and more than adequate. We would be regular visitors if we did not live over 200 miles away.

Lovely place! Amazing meals

We stopped over for the night traveling through England to Scotland and I wish we would have stayed there for a longer period of time bc it was such a lovely place. We are a family of 5 with a 6 month old, 3 yr, and 5yr old and it was very family oriented place. They had different sitting options to eat and we went to the section with the children’s toys and little kitchen for the kids to play with while we ate. The food is absolutely amazing! We ate dinner and breakfast there and it was perfect! The rooms were very clean and perfect for our family. If we ever travel that way we will for sure stop there.
