    Lauder is a great village with everything you need.

    Lauder is a great village with everything you need. Spotty Dog for coffee and a Scotch egg, Flat Cat Gallery for gift shopping and cake. There is a butchers, post office, pharmacy and co-op. As well as a beautiful church, castle and surrounding areas with lots of history and natural beauty. An underrated gem

    Excellent accommodation within a beautiful building of great historical significance and set in magnificent countryside. The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful making our stay relaxing and enjoyable. I would definitely recommend the castle tour. Our guide (Norman) had a wealth of knowledge with regard to both the castle itself and the Maitland family who have occupied it over the centuries.

    The location was great for visiting the Scottish Borders. A good variety of places in Lauder to dine out. There is good bus services to Edinburgh + other towns in the Borders. The bus stops are just outside the apartment.

    Margot was incredibly welcoming and ensured that we felt at home. :) The room had all that is needed including tea/coffee & snacks. Margot also cooked very tasty breakfast for us that included porrage, scrambled eggs with salmon and fruit among other items. One of the best breakfasts we had in Scotland! :) The place truly feels like home versus a hotel. We also appreciated the free parking spot in the front of the house. We would certainly recommend this place to others!

    We booked room in Carfraemill Hotel. Unfortunately, due to storm there’re no electricity. We were shifted to Kings Arms Hotel in Melrose. We really enjoyed our stay in Kings Arms Hotel Melrose. All staff was really helpful specially Breakfast staff who’s from South Africa. His customer service was outstanding as well as Chef cooked really nice food for us.

    Amazing stay! We stayed in the sculleries, the rooms were extremely comfortable, very clean. The castle is set in lovely grounds, a great place to unwind. We couldn't have asked for anything better. The location was ideal for exploring the local area. The Black Bull in Lauder was a great place to eat out.

    The bed was comfy, the house was completely refurbished and smartly decorated. The kitchen was well equipped and stylish. The bathroom had underfloor heating. The patio caught the sun in the afternoon. Lauder has a fine dining restaurant ,Firebrick, an artisan bakery a good cafe/gallery and a deli.

    Lauder was our base and we visited several tourist attractions up to an hour’s drive away. The apartment was very comfortable and we so enjoyed our stay. Three very large bedrooms and bathrooms all of a very high standard. Walked the castle and river walks. They even opened the gift shop for us.

    I am a retired professional chef and hotel manager for Hyatt hotels and rarely am I so impressed with a facility to the degree that I am with the Black Bull. If the opportunity presents itself you must stay here and will not be disappointed whatsoever.
