Hotel Details
Linglie Road, Selkirk, TD7 5LS Great Britain

Hotel Overview

Set on the outskirts of Selkirk, Scotland, among open fields and rolling Borders country, the Philipburn Hotel makes a peaceful countryside retreat. Traditional character runs through the house, with a relaxed, friendly feel and open fields and quiet lanes stretching out on every side, an easy place to slow down.

On-site dining keeps things easy in comfortable surroundings, welcoming lounges give space to settle, and free WiFi covers the practical side after a day in the hills. Selkirk's old town and mill shops are close, the Borders abbeys at Melrose and Dryburgh lie a short drive off, and Sir Walter Scott's Abbotsford sits nearby along the Tweed.

The salmon river and its walking routes thread the valley just beyond the gardens, and Bowhill House and the rolling Borders hills are close for walking and cycling. Drive the road to Scott's View above the Tweed at golden hour, the outlook the author loved best, before circling back for dinner. Book your stay at the Philipburn Hotel, BW Signature Collection and let the Borders hills set the pace.
