    Nothing, all good.

    Breakfast was great, dinner was great, comfy room and bed, well set up for walkers and general travellers. Independently owned and the quality was good.

    What makes a holiday memorable is the people you meet and everyone at the Boarder Hotel contributed to ensuring we had a great stay. Thanks Julie

    Couldn't fault anything during our stay.

    Very cosy bar with a good range of real ales, and friendly staff. Food in the restaurant in the evening was of very good quality and the chicken balti was so good I had it both nights.

    A cosy, welcoming home from home in Kirk Yetholm!

    - It may be because it was a quiet time but the fruit options at breakfast weren’t great (and past their best). The cooked vegetarian breakfast menu option was not available (this didn’t bother me as I could mix and match some of the other options and actually preferred this!) No decaf fresh coffee available. I feel a bit picky saying this though as we enjoyed the breakfast very much and it was so well cooked!

    - Really genuine, friendly, lovely staff - the best feature of this hotel. So welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. - Really clean, comfortable rooms with excellent heating. We were very cosy and slept so well. - Great bar attached (with darts and lots of other games available to borrow) which had some live music on at the weekend though couldn’t hear a peep from our room. - Food served in the evenings. We ate here on the first night. Standard pub menu and though there were limited veggie options, the food was really tasty and well cooked. The chips were rather amazing! - Dog friendly! - Top cooked breakfast (served by the loveliest lady). - Beautiful village/area and well placed for exploring Scotland and Northumberland.

    Shower was not very powerful but it was hot. Certainly wouldn't spoil my night.

    Love the scenery, and quirkiness of the hotel. Room was so peaceful and exceptionally warm (so much so, that I was praying the heating wouldn't come on during the night). Room was clean. Bedding was spotless. Food was lovely although they didn't have our 1st or 2nd choice from the menu (not a problem as quiet season so maybe not fully stocked up and we eat anything!!). Scottish breakfast was very good.

    Nothing. It was exactly as we hoped.

    A genuine, warm welcome and generous hospitality from start to finish - a perfect treat for two winter mountain bikers. Cosy bedroom, welcoming bar full of friendly locals, good beers and top notch honest fayre (you ‘must’ get the chunky chips with your meal!!).

    Very hot water in the tap, difficult to wash your hands or face - mixer tap would be much better.

    Beautiful location and very good access to many interesting places. Our room was clean and cosy and also a decent size, with a really big bathroom. All members of staff were excellent, very nice and helpful. Good food, worth the price. Overall great place, full of history 🙂 definitely would stay there again.
