It was an excellent the staff were very friendly and helpful, the bonus was the rain went off and the sun came out, it makes everything look much better. I was supposed to get married here but my ex had other plans. Anyways, the staff were fantastic to work with and, when my wedding was canceled, they offered me a two night stay. I’ve never felt happier. If you’re just visiting or getting married, I’d highly recommend!! The Hazell (with Morag) made this so interesting and informative. Each room was lovingly explained - and plenty opportunity to ask questions throughout the tour. Stunning ceilings on the upper floor. Great historical knowledge and a real passion for the house. A fabulous guided tour. The answered our questions well. It was intriguing yo hear the myth, and legends of the castle. The of the 19 Earls was fascinating. Beautiful decor and fabulous plastered ceilings. An extra gem was all the vintage toys in the nursery. Even an original Paddington Bear. A fantastically beautiful with endless grounds stretching as far as the eye can see. Admission only with a tour. Be sure to book in advance to avoid disappointment. The are still in use and parts of the can also be rented. Our shared lots of interesting details with us and at the end we were treated to coffee and biscuits. Wow. We "owned" one whole end of the castle. Full kitchen, huge dining room, 5 with kitchens and sitting rooms, large fire placed warmed "game" room - and we used all of it. Excellent staff, got piped into our stay, took a tour, used the trails (short ones around and Southern Upland Way which is connected), walked into Lauder for dinner/beer). In the middle (hour at best) of England/Lindisfarne, Traqhuair House, Tweed River, Melrose, Annandale Distillery, and do on. Looking forward to return.
