Staff team great, helpful, friendly a credit to the Kings Arms. Food good, and the cask ales were also good, this hasn't always been the case in the past, so I was delighted. At the improvements.

The apartment truly was home away from home. Everything was very lovingly prepared and arranged. We loved to have good cooking ware. The location is both quiet and restful yet close to Melrose restaurants, grocery stores, museums, and hikes. Our hosts were thoughtful and professional, and very easy to contact.
Rurally located, the Clint Lodge features fee Wi-Fi throughout and free private parking. This 19th century sporting lodge is just 7 miles from the small town of Melrose and is pet-friendly.

We had a lovely break at Clint Lodge. Suzi really went out of her way to make us welcome. It was the first trip with our dog and that was no problem – it is truly dog friendly so we felt very at home there. The breakfast is outstanding with lots of choice and everything home made. We had a meal on the first evening and felt very looked after - everything was home cooked.

This is a lovely old town. The Abbey was under some repair but a fantastic, historic place. The rugby stadium dominates Sadly, didn't get chance to do the Roman stuff;maybe next time. The River Tweed is beautiful and there is good walking around its banks and bridges. The centre has some nice pubs. The Kings Arms was very friendly, the locals inviting me into their conversation. Everyone was so welcoming. The walk into Galashiels is about 50 minutes (ten minutes drive, tops). In Gala, the Great Tapestry of Scotland is a must see. I spent nearly three hours in there and still rushed the last bit.

Melrose is the 'jewel in the crown' of the Scottish Borders, with beautiful surrounding hills (Eildons) and lovely Borders towns nearby like Galashiels and Kelso. Borders folk are also very friendly and helpful. Sir Walter Scott's House at Abbotsford is wonderful and it's worth seeing the William Wallace Statue near Dryburgh.

Melrose is a nice little town with shops, cafés, bars and restaurnts, an interesting museum and a lovely historic site: the ruins of a mediaeval abbey. The scenery is picturesque with the river Tweed running through the town. As I love the outdoors, it was important for me to have a lot of hiking routes starting from the town. There are buses running from there, too, to all directions, so important places, the capital or even the sea are within easy reach.
I visited Dryburgh Abbey on foot and Kelso and Jedburgh by bus. A visit to Abbotsford, the house of Sir Walter Scott was absolutely intriguing. The rolling hills of the Borders are so beautiful that I would go back this instant if I could.

Trimontium Museum in Melrose market place is absolutely first class - about a huge Roman fort a couple of miles outside Melrose. Melrose Abbey was disappointing as most of it is fenced off whilst they carry out building inspections, and it didn't look like this would change any time soon. Dryburgh Abbey about 5 miles away is better. Abbotsford well worth a visit. We also took the train from Tweedbank to Edinburgh for the day which worked very well. Also visited the Great Scottish Tapestry in Galashiels which is an absolute must. Can recommend Provender in Melrose for dinner. Town centre has a range of independent shops and cafes.

Quaint small town.
Quaint small town. The Roman Museum is very good as is the visit to the Abbey, although, unlike last time you could not go into the abbey. I was there to begin the St. Cuthbert Trail walk to Lindisfarne. Sir Walter Scott's nearby home is worth a visit.

We love Melrose and visit often.
We love Melrose and visit often. We love browsing the small shops on the high street and they have a brilliant butcher in Martin Baird. A walk round the town is a delight, past the abbey, Harmony Garden and across the chain bridge to Gattonside - or up the Eildon's if you are feeling energetic. We also love Sir Walter Scott's home, Abbotsford which is a short car journey and the Tapestry of Scotland exhibition in Galashiels.
Getting to Melrose is relatively easy from Edinburgh Waverley station on the Borders light railway to Tweedbank, then a short taxi ride.
Clare and Donald were exceptional hosts, from the very warm welcome with a hot drink and millionaire shortbread to our farewell with Tablet Fudge they were fantastic. The accommodation was first class, very clean, really comfortable and beautiful surroundings. Breakfast was lovely (especially the fruit and yogurt), we also liked Boris the Cat! We highly recommend staying at the Barn at the Coach House when you are near Melrose. The town of Melrose itself is also lovely.
Perfect place for a visit to Melrose and area. Excellent staff, nice, big , comfortable rooms,, old style pub and restaurant downstairs.. The Borders bus can be caught just outside the door and the train station in Tweedbank is just a short taxi ride (we were lucky to get a ride from a local who was also on the train). We enjoyed everything about our four days in Melrose.
One of the very best accommodations we have ever stayed in over 35 years of holidays. Beautiful location above Melrose. Extensive garden and own sitting area in it. Amazingly well decorated house - flowers, paintings, candles. Attention to detail worthy of a 5 star hotel. Owners are most friendly and considerate. Breakfast was exceptionally good.
I am just home from a great stay with my friend at The Burts Hotel. Everything was just perfect. We had a lovely meal in the restaurant. Breakfast plentiful. Staff were ever so friendly and accommodating. A credit to the hotel. The rooms were very clean and decorated to a high standard, and goes without saying, we will definitely be returning.
No problem parking. Keys were readily accessible. Property has been refurbished and standards are high. Slept well and not troubled by road noise etc. Comfortable lounge, well appointed kitchen and the whole house was nice and warm. Very clean too. Communications with the owner before our holiday were excellent.
Melrose is an interesting little town set in the lovely countryside. Our room was spacious and well appointed. Although the room was located on the main street, it was very quiet at night time. The food in the restaurant was tasty and all the staff were friendly and helpful. A large car park was useful.
Excellent location in the heart of Melrose.
Amazing friendly local staff, always smiling, helpful and flexible.
The hotel is dog friendly, so it was great vacation for our dog.
Good breakfast and restaurant facility for the day.
The room is cleaned with complementary coffee and tea sachets at check-in.
The apartment has lovely features and real character. It is in a great location with off street parking and a secure garage for bikes.
The kitchen was really well equipped.
The living room was super comfy and nice to relax in at the end of the day
For the price it was excellent
Location and breakfast are very good. Gardens are lovely and locality is very pretty including the Melrose Abbey which is £3 only to enter and only a mile or 2 away. Bar Lounge and Restaurant are really nice huge rooms - window views are stunning with redwoods in the gardens.
It was clean, well furnished and had everything we could need. Perfect for the Borders Book Festival- we left the car in it's parking place at the property- only a 20 minute walk into Melrose.
The staff were very friendly. The breakfast was good and we also had dinner in the hotel which we both really enjoyed. The hotel was in a very central location for a stay in Melrose.
Headboard, the other furniture in room was satisfactory. Liked location as we could walk along the river tweed from our hotel and also walk in the opposite direction to Melrose.
location was very good with on street parking.Melrose is a charming place and Kings Arms is a very good spot.Also just nip downstairs for some drink and food,very handy.
