This beautiful country house hotel from 1861, set in 28 acres of wonderful gardens and 4 Gold Stars (Visit Scotland) for affordable luxury 19 mi from Edinburgh. The hotel was also awarded by AA as Scotland's Hotel Of The Year 2013/14. Despite its peaceful rural location, Cringletie House is only about 30 minutes drive from Edinburgh and Edinburgh Airport. The convenient, yet secluded location makes the small country-house hotel ideal for a relaxing or romantic break. The restaurant with hand-painted ceiling provides excellent fine dining. The à la carte menu changes seasonally to reflect the finest, freshest produce available locally. Many dishes feature ingredients from the hotels 400-year-old walled kitchen garden. The beautiful location and beautifully appointed accommodations makes the hotel a superb base for the Tweed Valley.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.8 for a two-person trip.

As is very unusual for a grade B listed building, Cringletie House is fully wheelchair accessible and that means that guests in wheelchairs or guests with impaired mobility can still enjoy a meal in our stunning dining room.
With the River Tweed and the Tweed Valley Forests on our doorstep, as well as many historic houses, there is no time for boredom. Fishing, walking, mountain biking, sight seeing, it is all possible from Cringletie House. Furthermore, the capital city of Edinburgh is only some 30 minutes away giving you the chance to combine "Town & Country".
