Buccleuch Arms

Breakfast good. Room very comfortable. Staff extremely helpful and friendly during our stay.

Perhaps the decor, including the ceilings in the main reception area and foyer, could do with a spruce up as it appeared slightly jaded. Apart from that the inn is lovely and absolutely no complaints otherwise.

The building was clean and well kept… EXCEPT FOR THE ROOM! There was NO air circulation whatsoever! We reported it at supper and asked for a fan because the window was NOT OPENABLE not even a bit! We were told no fans available. We were NOT offered any compensation, not a different room, or money back. We were told that the room was reported unfit a couple of weeks before we were put in there. It should not be let out! We were in room 15 at top floor! NOT good when you have a dog to take out! I had always wanted to stay there but no more. This was during a heatwave of 20c at night! Food was GREAT, Service was friendly except for the ‘death trap’ they put us in and we are in our 70s! Hallway’s were cool due to open windows but we weren’t sleeping in the hall! JEYS were hard to fit and unlock the door from outside! Room was lovely. I wet a cold towel in cold water and used it like a blanket. My partner wool up every hour from the sweltering heat and no NO air circulation. It was like being in a concrete box! Breakfast was also Great! ABSOLUTELY NO COMPENSATION, NO CHANGE OF ROOM WAS OFFERED. I didn’t ask because I was waiting and expecting something to be offered! Even my little dog was struggling with the heat and no air circulation. I expected a pleasant night’s stay and almost booked two nights! So very GLAD I DIDN’T!!!

A former hunting lodge dating from 1836, plenty of character. Comfortable room. Popular for dining, so restaurant was busy, but food very good. Nice breakfast in the morning too. Staff all friendly.

Excellent food both at breakfast and dinner, good quality with plenty for breakfast , well prepared and served by helpful cheerful staff . Quite comfortable room . Lots of parking in an easy to find and accessible car park just outside the entrance

Stained stair carpet and duvet cover , damaged tv with a remote that only worked right in front of the tv . Food was excellent but portions were small and very pricey at dinner .

Breakfast - Reasonable choice - variable quality

Carpets, doors, walls, dining room seats very grubby and badly worn. I was embarrassed for the several foreign guests there - not a great advert for Scotland. Such a shame and so easily fixable.
