After a long and challenging escape driving out of Edinburgh, we headed down the A86 to the beautiful village of Melrose. Situated in the stunningly beautiful Borders region of Scotland, this small affluent village captured our hearts!

We spent a two night break here recently and were impressed with the room, the service and the food. We ate in the Brasserie both nights and had two lovely meals, plenty of choice and all beautifully cooked. Breakfast delicious too. Everything was spotlessly clean.
