“A wonderful converted coaching inn on the River Tweed. The elegant rooms are tastefully decorated with neutral tones and crisp linens. Choose between the informal pub and the parquet floored restaurant, both serving wholesome gourmet cuisine. A great country escape with wonderful walks and fishing.”

Hotel review

Formally a coaching inn, this hotel blends country and contemporary perfectly. Its renowned bar, log fires and homely library, create a warm welcome. Inviting, luxurious bedrooms own comfy beds and great bathrooms; some with views of the Tweed. Appetizing menus, using local ingredients, are offered in the brasserie or dining room. The last hotel before crossing the Border, with the coast and Cheviots no distance away and the River Tweed in view, it’s a hugely popular country retreat; especially if you enjoy casting a line or two…A real treat.

Collingwood Arms

"A plain, reassuring, stone-built Georgian edifice, with two rows of elegant sash windows, it feels more like a gentleman's residence, with a wide central hall and a well-proportioned library/sitting room leading off."
