On the night we were staying the hotel had to cope with a power cut covering quite a large area surrounding it. They dealt with it very well and served us all a perfectly acceptable menu of cold items. All the staff were positive and helpful and created a very friendly and fun atmosphere….well done to the whole team!

The property was excellent apart from the Bathroom door not closing fully. This did not distract from our overall opinion of the Hotel and the Staff. The view overlooking the River Tweed was exceptional and we would certainly use the hotel again.

The hotel is situated in its own grounds off the main road. Bar and dining areas were fine, offering fairly standard fare. The room was clean and comfortable but not luxurious.
