Good Hotel Guide Review
The hotel experts at the Good Hotel Guide
Run by the Henderson family, Burt's is popular with locals and visitors alike; the whitewashed 18th-century building with its distinctive black window mouldings has long been a popular landmark of this pretty Borders town. Neat bedrooms are decorated in soothing shades with bright pops of colour and tweedy accents; each room has tea- and coffee-making facilities and Scottish toiletries. In the restaurant and bar, the menu runs from burgers to more substantial dishes such as Highland venison by way of vegetable tagine and cheddar-crusted pollock with mussel chowder. A sustaining breakfast supports the next day's activities: golfing, walking, fishing on the River Tweed, or exploring Melrose.
