Roxburghe Hotel
The Scottish Borders
The Roxburghe Hotel is a delightful hotel and is equidistant from both Edinburgh and Newcastle. The hotel comprises of 22 bedrooms, many of which have four-poster beds and some with log fires, sumptuous fine dining in the fabulous restaurant and a championship golf course. A labour of love by the Duke of Roxburghe, it epitomises an aristocratic retreat and it is the personal touches that make this hotel so special. From the furnishings, books and paintings from the Duke’s own home, to his selection of fine wines and his influence on the accommodation and impeccable standards of service, the hotel is a true home from home hotel, with character and individuality throughout.
To my mind, the greatest reward and luxury of travel is to be able to experience everyday things as if for the first time, to be in a position in which almost nothing is so familiar it is taken for granted.
