Real guests • Real stays • Real opinions
Friendly and helpful staff; advised places to go and the best routes. Comfy room, and the cooked breakfast in the morning was lovely.
United KingdomThe location was not particularly attractive but it was within easy walking distance from the river and the town. The staff were very friendly and helpful and everywhere was very clean. We always had somewhere to park the car. The hospitality tray was refilled every day and there was fresh milk available.
United KingdomHad an excellent 2 night stay over at the Belle Vue recently, this place is spot on, lovely old property but with all your modern needs, Graham the host is a good guy, very friendly, helpful and informative, breakfast is superb!!, plenty of choice with quality ingredients, Stornoway black pudding is the best!!. The location of this place is also spot on, just outside Kelso town centre so nice and quiet but still only a 5 minute walk into it which is a nice place itself, we've visited the Scottish Borders a fair few times over the years and i'm sure we'll be back again in the the near future and this place is the first place I will be looking for accommodation availability.
United KingdomThe owners are unbelievably friendly and helpful. They were happy to give recommendations of things to do, places to eat etc. Nothing was too much trouble. The location is excellent. You can easily walk into Kelso and that is a great town in which to base yourself for a look at the wider Borders region. The cooked breakfasts are also excellent! It was also very reassuring to see that they are taking Covid-19 measures very seriously, with cleaning measures and distancing adhered to.
United KingdomProperty was characterful and comfortable. Hosts were very friendly and helpful.
United KingdomLocation was ideal, Breakfast was fantastic couldn't ask for more. Graeme and Hilary were fab hosts
United KingdomJust good old fashioned hospitality, very friendly and welcoming.
United KingdomTown centre location but quiet and relaxing, ample off street parking, very friendly and informative hosts, a period property with a lovely atmosphere.
United KingdomWe really enjoyed our stay. We stayed at Bellevue for a night while walking the Border's Abbey Way. We (2 couples and a dog) were made to feel very welcome by our friendly hosts. Excellent breakfast using delicious local produce too!

Bellevue House is a Victorian detached villa property and was built in 1840 for Thomas Tod Stoddart. It was built as a family home and today it is still a family home with a friendly environment to ensure your stay is a relaxed one. The guest house is situated a short walk from Kelso's famous cobble square which has lots of independent shops and restaurants catering for every taste.
Hilary and Graham work hard to ensure your stay is a pleasant one. Nothing is too much trouble as we offer suggestions on places to visit, areas to walk freely and restaurants and shops to visit. We promote local when ever we can and have confidence our guests will want to return to the Scottish Borders and in particular Kelso. We offer a variety of options on our breakfast menu to cater for all requirements .
The area around the guest house is residential with the local school, doctors, dentist and veterinary surgeries just minutes away. Bellevue House is located just a short 3 to 5 minute walk from the Kelso town square. We have free off road parking behind the guest house.
