Walkerburn Hotel Guide - Romantic Hotels in Walkerburn, Scotland

"Lovely stay in the castle. A little creeky with the floor boards but overall amazing,"

"Loved it."

"What a lovely place. Off the beaten track, but well worth finding. Has proper old time charm but is in excellent condition. Room was a generous size, bed was comfy, bathroom was clean. Meal choice was super and the quality matched. Would definitely recommend a stay here."

"This is the real castle deal! We were thrilled be allocated room 4 in the large turret of the castle. A red four postered bed themed room with all the glory of days gone by. The bathroom was located down a narrow hallway near the door to the room and that made for some fun too! It felt really special! The ghost of Lady Catherine sadly didn't visit us and we slept like babies. Dinner in the dungeon was sensational and drinks before and after in the lounge rounded off the night. Brekkie was fab and the staff were super helpful from go to woah! Now that's a castle stay!"

"So far the most comfy and welcoming place I have stayed at while here. This was my first time in the UK and I’m glad to have stayed here. Good room for the price with breakfast included. Only snag is the place is out of range for taxi/uber pickups. They are able to drop off if you’re coming from Edinburgh but best to rely on Eskbank station or a rental car if you need to get back."

"Very quick to fix my broken tv and really pleasant "

"Stayed for 2 nights with a dog. Very friendly, good food. Location good for walks along the river, shops and bars with food. "

"This 20s rebuild of a Victorian hydro therapy hotel has truly stunning views. All rooms seemed ‘front’ facing to capitalise on those views. Honestly wonderful. Our room was bright, painted a fresh and modern sage green and, once again, with glorious views. Bed was on the stiffer side which is my preference for comfort and shower and bath warm and strong. Pretty standard for these older hotels as part of a smaller chain. Gym was very quiet on a Saturday evening but with plenty there and truly astonishing aircon for a hotel gym! Accessed through the pool so it was trainers off to get there. Pool seemed very kid friendly and a good size. Definitely an ‘end of maintenance/decoration’ cycle feel to much of the hotel (especially some damp peeling ceilings) but the social areas are charming enough and the main dining room was a lovely space clearly kept fresh for weddings. Hotel was spotlessly clean with great staff - and plenty of them! Post Brexit many hotels seemed to be suffering staff crises, not here. LOTS to do in the nearby area, even if it’s just coffee or cake in Peebles itself. The cocktails were (ahem) made with gusto and plenty of booze, though definitely not to traditional recipes! The ‘cocktail bar’ was more of a feel of a pub snug than a ‘modern’ cocktail bar (if that’s what you are expecting) but it’s welcoming with an open fire. Lovely hotel but with a slightly dated feel that may take the shine off if you’re expecting ‘luxury’"
