A lovely nights stay

We stayed at Burt’s the night before commencing our long distance walk along St Cuthbert’s Way. Upon our arrival we were greeted incredibly warmly. My suitcase was carried up to our room - which was very much appreciated. We enjoyed a tasty evening meal & hearty breakfast which ensured an excellent start to our hike. The team were attentive & nothing was too much trouble. I’d recommend Burts to anyone & would happily stay again. Thank you team Burt’s for a lovely nights stay!

Great local hotel and restaurant.

Great little hotel in the lovely village of Melrose. The food at the restaurant/pub was excellent and there was a cozy fire buring away. I booked a single accomodation and the room was on the smaller size but perfect for my needs.

The food in the Bistro Bar was very tasty. The beds were comfortable and the room was a good size. A request to change the bed configuration was dealt with swiftly. Some of the breakfast serving staff need training on how to listen. The breakfast was delicious. Try the full Scottish if you dare!
