I didn't feel welcome so I went away and sat in my car until it was 5pm. My room was freezing. The bathroom was too cold to contemplate having anything but a very short use of the loo. The furniture was creaky old as opposed to vintage chic. I was told not to close the curtains because it would make the room cold. I dont think it could have been any colder. The bed was comfortable. And the breakfast was very good. But all in all it was certainly not worth the £163 for one person for one night. ##### Julie Stayed 1 night in Jan 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### George Apr 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Not much could be improved upon at this beautiful, immaculate, well-organized B&B.

There is off road parking, we had an ensuite room, and Jason was a gracious host. We used our vehicle to explore the Borders. While walks are close by, guests will need a vehicle if not doing one of the walks. The view from the patio is simply fantastic. There are very good pubs a short drive away. ##### D&P Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jul 4, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Charming B&B Lovely hostess that made sure we were comfortable.
