"Explore the turbulent history of the Borders"
The peace and tranquility of the beautiful Scottish Borders or the hustle and bustle of Edinburgh, Scotland's capital city can both be enjoyed from this wonderful hotel set high on Venlaw Hill overlooking the romantic royal burgh of Peebles. Located just 40 minutes South of Edinburgh this is the best of both worlds! You may wish to walk out into the surrounding hills or to explore the turbulent history of the Borders with visits to our ancient houses and abbey ruins.
Perhaps it's golf or fishing that you enjoy or maybe you'd prefer just to sit back by the log fire, relax and unwind. Alternatively you may wish to visit Edinburgh and this is the ideal base with frequent fast bus services. Then, after a hard day shopping and sightseeing, you can retire to your house in the country! All our rooms are large with most enjoying spectacular views across the surrounding countryside. For that bit of extra luxury enjoy our suite or four poster. Our Chef Andrew McQueen produces excellent food with the best of fresh local produce and our wine list is selected to accompany his dishes. Stay once and you're sure to return!
