Fantastic stay!
Fantastic stay at the Allanton inn. Bar and restaurant is great, especially having a drink in the large outdoor area. Staff are very helpful and extremely friendly. The bed in our room was a little hard but it this is a minor issue for such a great stay.

Great food, great service, great room!
Great inn, lovely food, attention to detail in the bedroom - flannel and excellent toiletries provided. Better than many hotels. Parking was on the street - but I parked in front of the front door - closer than for many hotel car parks. Would visit again.

Business trip in the Scottish Borders.
Lovely clean room. Food and drink are top notch and this is a smashing place to stay when in the area. My room was big enough for a comfortable stay but I could have benefitted from a work area for the evening paperwork. I really appreciated the information pack. I walked the Whiteadder walk (from the information pack), which helped me unwind after work. The countryside, wildlife and sheer beauty of the area makes this a region to recommend. The personal touches in the info pack were great and reflect the justified pride in the area and the Inn itself. The public areas are also beautifully decorated and very well maintained. I'd have no hesitation in returning and am very grateful to Katrina, William and team for their great hospitality.
