The Wheatsheaf Hotel and Restaurant ★★★★

"Delicious food. Great service at a reasonable price. Appreciate their help to make my birthday meal enjoyable - thank you"

The White Swan Hotel ★★★

"Stayed at the White Swan recently for 4 nights. We were in a group of 5. We had a great stay here using the hotel as a base. Breakfast was fantastic with a great choice. We also ate here in the evening and the food was excellent, each evening had specials on the menu, Sunday was our favourite with turkey and all the trimmings. Rooms were perfect for what we required and the beds were very comfortable. The staff made this stay with each and every one pleasant to speak to and service was exceptional. If we are back in the area next year we wont look anywhere else for accommodation."

Allanton Inn ★★★

"Lovely Scottish inn serving fresh local produce, comfortable and extremely clean room, fluffy white towels, Scottish highland toiletries and high quality bedding. It was just lovely. We enjoyed returning to the inn after a day sightseeing in the lovely borders where there is lots to see and do with majestic country houses, castles , museums and gardens to enjoy and what made it extra special was returning to the Allanton inn to enjoy a drink in the garden before dinner. Thanks to William and Katrina for your hospitality and to the lovely staff who help to make this a special place to stay."

Green Hope Guest House ★★★

"We spent a lovely weekend at GreenHope and had a really great weekend. Alison and Bill were so hospitable and kind and the accommodation was top class. A lovely little semi detached bungalow with a full working kitchen with all mod cons, a sitting room and bedroom with en suite shower and toilet. It was immaculate and spotless and the surroundings were like something from a movie. Patio doors from the sitting room leading out to a patio had the most spectacular view looking onto a flowing river between two rolling glens. Absolutely breathtaking. Alison allowed us to park our car right next to the bungalow too so it was super convenient. The peace and tranquility was priceless and just what we needed after having a hectic Christmas and New Year period. We booked again for 6 weeks time as seeing the area in Spring will be spectacular. If you like stargazing then this is the place too. One clear evening gave us the most dazzling curtain of stars and I imagine in Spring the milky way could be spotted. Duns is only a 15 minute drive if you need supplies or want to go for lunch or dinner which we did and enjoyed it to no end. Its great value for money and at only an hour away from Edinburgh you can enjoy the most peaceful and resting retreat imaginable. Whether youre from Scotland or further afield Green Hope is a must for those looking for a quiet break away from city life."

The Coach House ★★★

"The Coach House is in a quiet secluded location between Chirnside and Allanton. It's extremely peaceful and a great place to relax and unwind. The cottage is spacious and comfortable with all the amenities you need for your stay. Liz is very helpful and was available to answer any questions. It's a perfect place to stay for the Jim Clark Rally and I highly recommend it!"
