Guest Reviews

• Gautier (9/5): - We got a warm welcome. The rooms were great and beautiful. The food was good. It is a pub so you can get some food smell going through your room but it was not a big problem.
• Roger (9/5): -
• Tobias (10/5): Man fühlt sich herzlich willkommen und umsorgt - Super freundliche und hilfsbereite Besitzer und Personal. Reichhaltiges Frühstück zum fairen Preis. Gut gelegen für wunderschöne Wanderungen zum und am River Tweed, nach Dryburgh Abbey, zu den drei Eildon Hills, nach Melrose. Zimmer sehr sauber. Pub mit lecker Bier und guten einfachen Gerichten. Kaffee und Tee im Zimmer. Etwas hellhörig. Frittiergerüche im Gang aber nicht im Zimmer.
• Ian (8/5): - Friendly No real ale
• Ros (9/5): - Breakfast order mixed up with other guests orders
• Tove (10/5): -
• vanessa (10/5): Excellent stay for my employees, clean and tidy would recommend -
• VALERIE BAGJE (7/5): Plutôt sympa - Personnel très accueillant et sympathique. La chambre est bien isolée du Pub où les habitués se retrouvent pour boire entre amis, jouer au billard ou chanter au karaoké, . Le petit déjeuner excellent de même que le repas du soir. Les voisins bruyants : claquement de porte et chien qui aboie. Les odeurs de cuisine très présentes dans notre chambre juste au-dessus qui mériterait une rénovation de la fenêtre et de la cabine de douche.
• Catherine (10/5): Warm and welcoming - Cosy and comfortable. Owners and staff were friendly and welcoming. Lovely walks right from the doorstep.
• Sumiko (9/5): スコットランドの温かいおもてなしを受けられました - 宿のスタッフがとにかく親切。朝食のスコティッシュブレックファストはいい経験ができた。冷蔵庫がある。ベッドが広い。専用の駐車場は無いが、路上など停めるところはあり、スタッフに聞けば誘導もしてくれる。 給湯器の使い方、知らない人間にはわからないので、説明を書いておいていただけるとありがたいです。
• Patrick (9/5): -
• White (10/5): Better than a 4 star hotel! - Everything was of an exceptionally high standard. Lovely jams for my light breakfast. I am disabled and was given outstanding help and friendliness. Nothing
• Karen (7/5): Very friendly, great location and great value for money - Great location on our cycling route. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The owners were friendly and welcoming. They went out of their way to make sure our bikes were safe and secure overnight. Great value for money. Minor issue. The windows were difficult to open in the rooms. But this is normal with traditional sash windows
• Joanna (8/5): Very handy for St Cuthberts Way walkers - Rooms were excellent Staff very friendly and helpful. Warm welcome
• Robert (9/5): -
• Xiaoyang (9/5): -
• John (8/5): - Friendly reception
• Dominique (9/5): Étape lors d’un trek sur le border abbey way - Chambre confortable, très propre. Hôtel calme. Service impeccable. Rien
• Richard (9/5): - Very welcoming hosts. Friendly locals. Great food comfortable facilities. Nothing.
• Tammy (10/5): Great location, clean and comfortable rooms, and friendly staff who made the stay easy and enjoyable - It had a lovely homely atmosphere with an open fire and a great bar. The decor was very in keeping with a Scottish experience and the rooms had everything catered. The breakfast was very filling and tasty 😋
• Josepha (6/5): Literie très agréable mais protégé à revoir - Le lit était très grand Les odeurs de friture dans la cage d’escalier sont regrettables et la moquette est sale dans la chambre. Il y a de la poussière partout sur les étagères. L’emplacement n’est pas idéal et donne sur une grande rue.
• Euan (8/5): -
• Charles (10/5): very comfortable - comfortable beds, clean warm welcoming room. excellent breakfast.
• John (10/5): A Gem - Booked for one night. Great friendly welcome Had dinner and went down well Great breakfast next morning All good, nothing negative to say
• grace (8/5): - Breakfast excellent good choices. Cath was a great hostess very hospitable. New Owners realise that there's still a bit of work to be done and I'm sure they'll get there.
• Kirsty (8/5): - Friendly welcome Noisey road. Can't be helped. Room was cold, big room to heat,blowing a hooley outside and windows were very drafty.
• Leonard (10/5): -
• Marzena K (8/5): -
• Andrew (9/5): Very comfortable stay with friendly hosts - Very friendly staff All good
• Georgia (5/5): -
• Helen (7/5): A very friendly pub with rooms - A warm bedroom with a big and comfortable bed. Friendly Hosts and friendly bar with a nice log fire. Nice fresh fruit at breakfast. The room was dusty in places and the bathroom toilet brush needed a clean.
• Antje (8/5): Sweetest people, comfy beds - The owners are the sweetest people. They made food for us although we arrived late in the evening. Beds were very comfortable and we had a very spacious room. Breakfast was excellent as well. We visited Dryburgh Abbey which is a really beautiful site, enchanting and so peaceful. Also make sure to stop by Melrose. Sweet little town with an abbey as well. It was a bit chilly in our room but we came at the beginning of March so that’s definitely not an issue once it gets warmer outside. Blankets and bed was warm and cosy so this wasn’t a problem for us during the night.
• malcolm (10/5): Excellent and memorable - Great place to stay, very welcoming staff. The pub had a very friendly atmosphere, food good, room good. Thoroughly enjoyable.
• Finn (10/5): Amazing staff, great rooms, brilliant food, good beer and nice locals - Saul, Cath and Lisa were all lovely! They made the stay very enjoyable. The food was amazing, especially the breakfast! We would definitely stay again.
• Jen (8/5): Almost there! - Saul and Kath were very welcoming. The pub is quaint and the locals are friendly. There are some lovely walks nearby. Breakfast is pre-ordered, with a good range of options available and the bed was comfortable. The heating wasn't on in our room on arrival so the room felt cold and struggled to warm up despite putting the radiator on full. Some minor cleanliness issues: very dusty skirting boards, a dirty toilet brush, and the breakfast area needed some attention. However, as long as the above is addressed, I wouldn’t let it put you off — the landlords are just finding their feet.

• Holger (10/5): Ein tolles kleines Hotel, das alle Erwartungen erfüllt - Auch dieses Mal hat uns wieder ein gemütliches Zimmer erwartet. Im letzten Jahren wurde augenscheinlich das Zimmer modernisiert, sodass jetzt noch mehr Komfort auf einen wartet. Es gibt nichts auszusetzen, wir haben bereits für nächstes Jahr wieder gebucht.
• Lori (10/5): Real Scotland. Precious place. - Authentic Scotland! The pub had a wood fire burning in the grate, good beer on tap and locals ready to chat.
