Idyllic Wedding Venue
Reviewed By Keith BWe stayed at this hotel recently for our son's wedding. The venue and overall accommodation lends itself beautifully for a wedding occasion and to add to that the staff are extremely accommodating and friendly. Nothing is too much trouble. We would have no hesitation in recommending the hotel for any occasion as we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you again to Marie and her staff, especially Katie who was our main point of contact for the wedding. To add to our stay we were able to book dog friendly accommodation which was perfect!

An atmosphere of old fashioned austerity
Reviewed By Fussy_PeopleWe were booked here as part of our walking holiday by Celtic Trails and it was the most disappinting of the stays. From the start, it felt like we'd been thrown back to the early '90s by the slightly strict approach of the hosts. The room was fine (although not spotless) and the breakfast good enough (good porridge, overcooked boiled eggs). We also had a packed lunch from here which was a bit disappointing particularly as it included cheap ham which we'd been careful to avoid requesting.

A jewel in the crown
Reviewed By Explorer760057I had a lovely stay at Cross Keys. The owner was friendly and couldn’t do enough for me. The room had everything I needed and was clean and comfortable. I met lots of nice local who were very friendly and most had dogs. The breakfast was good and the coffee was excellent. There was a music lesson night hosted by Ian Lowthian, Accordianist. along with his pupils and friends. What a great night. Can't praise this Inn enough. Give it a go folks

Awful
Reviewed By LKJJH22Very very disappointing. We pre booked our table in advance as we were a large family (13) and also confirmed on the day. Arrived and no table was ready, instead a few regulars and a large tv sat on the table in the ‘restaurant’ this had to be moved then, as we arranged the table ourselves the young lad came with place settings. It seemed as if we were a nuisance to the man who took our order - I presume the owner? The food came in dribs and drabs and was certainly not quality of any kind. The starters weren’t the worst to be fair however the mains were awful. A few of us had the roast which you would think was a safe option unfortunately it was very disappointing and the one small Yorkshire pudding was clearly bought in from Iceland. Some had the fish and chips but it was so greasy it was inedible, even the dog was offered some and refused! The children's pizzas were also the cheapest and they had added some grated cheese as if to make up for it. It seemed as if we were a hassle to them rather than grateful for our business on what I can only describe as a very remote area. No-one even thanked us on our exit. Another thing to note is the hot water is a health and safety hazard, the temperature was extremely hot and very dangerous for children and there wasn’t a sign warning anyone. My advice to about one visiting the area is travel a little further to get a much better experience. We wish we had stayed at our accommodation and had a bbq.
5. County Hotel

"The County" is a historic coaching inn, with beginnings dating back to 1746. Under new ownership since 22nd June 2018 an extensive programme of upgrades and refurbishment is under way ... this is being carried out without inconveniencing any guest stays. Interesting and varied new menus are in place, with full-service food available from 07:30 -21:00 (currently 08:30 on Saturday and Sunday). Ideally placed to explore the Borders region and competitively priced, the owners and staff assure you of a warm welcome and their very best attention at all times. Our aim is to DELIGHT our customers, and for that reason we offer a "Total Satisfaction Guarantee", and you will ALWAYS be able to speak directly to one of the owners if necessary to assist you should you have any concerns.
Old and tired hotel - door only open 4.30-7.30pm
Reviewed By donaldf673You have to work hard to get into this hotel, we had to wait 2 hours before we got access. Very steep stairs with no lift. Twin room is small and furnishings are tired. Bathroom with shower was adequate. No food available in evening but breakfast was fine.
6. Heatherlie House Hotel

If you are thinking about relaxing and unwinding in the country or wishing to find a base to explore the Borders, Heatherlie House Hotel is a perfect match for you. Heatherlie House Hotel is a family run hotel based in Selkirk in the Scottish Borders and is one of the oldest licenced hotels in the area. It has a chilled-out family atmosphere and is perfect for winding down. The Family are originally from Edinburgh and were looking to form a business which involved stress free living in the countryside. Located in the picturesque town of Selkirk in the heart of the beautiful Scottish Borders the Hotel is an elegant Victorian mansion and set within 2 acres of beautiful, wooded grounds and is perfectly located for some of the best fishing and golfing in Scotland. There are 21 golf courses within just half an hour’s drive from the Hotel and being only a stone’s throw away from the River Ettrick with its fantastic Salmon and Rainbow Trout fishing. Because of the our 2 acres of surrounding woodland, we are regularly visited by Roe Deer, Pheasants and a plethora of local wildlife . Selkirk itself is also a prominent stop on the famous Abbey Way that takes walkers on a tour of the famous Abbeys of the Scottish Borders. The Royal and Ancient Burgh of Selkirk stands high above the Ettrick and Yarrow Valleys in the heart of the Scottish Borders. Selkirk is famous for its braes and wynds, and sudden unexpected views. This historic town can boast some famous patronages. For example, William Wallace was proclaimed Overlord of Scotland in the town's Forest Kirk. Sir Walter Scott served as Sheriff in Selkirk for 33 years. Halliwell's House, the town's oldest dwelling and is now a local museum. The House consists of 7 bedrooms in the main building, and all rooms are spacious and comfortably decorated and come with all the conveniences you would expect from a Country Hotel. This comes in handy for golfers/fishermen and walkers who have had a hard day on the hills. Heatherlie House Hotel also benefits from being near the main A7 and A68 which are the main roads between Edinburgh and Carlisle.
