Set within large private gardens, it offers a warm base for exploring the Scottish Borders while remaining within easy reach of Edinburgh itself. Originally built in the late 19th century, the hotel started life as a 'Temperance House' and is the oldest continually operating hotel in the area, standing among a number of other historic buildings nearby. The surrounding area has plenty to explore, including Thirlestane Castle just 0.4 miles away, and Stow station 4.9 miles away for onward travel.
