The rooms were very comfortable & clean. The bar is a traditional bar & very good. Food simple & just ok, service ok but seem understaffed. There is a really nice big restaurant that they don’t use which is such a shame as it’s so nice. The village is very nice. Would definitely stay again but probably eat somewhere else

A good stay on business

I was through for work, staying two nights. I booked a single ensuite room. It was basic but comfortable. I ate dinner in the hotel the first night which was tasty and reasonably priced; breakfast both days were continental and had a good range of options. Service was friendly.

Tweeddale Arms Hotel

Stayed for one night, before attending a christening the following day. Were pleasant when we checked in, though there was no offer to help with our bags, ( my husband has only one leg, and uses crutches), although there were quite a number of stairs to negotiate to reach our room. The room was comfortable and clean with a pleasant view overlooking the garden. The bathroom was compact but adequate, though I should say that a grab handle for the bath/shower would be very useful for the disabled, aswell as those over a certain age! Breakfast was served from 8am-10am, and was of the continental variety, which was fine for us, though it would have been nice to have the choice of some scrambled eggs etc. I should also point out that the Tweeddale Arms Hotel is actually in Gifford, not Haddington, though it's only about a seven minute drive away, which isn't a problem with such lovely scenery to see along the way.

Overnight stay

The staff were so friendly and accommodating, from my phone call to let them know that I might not arrive until 10pm to the welcome I received when I managed to be a bit earlier. The locals were very friendly showing how popular the bar was! The bed was comfortable and breakfast (continental) had a wide range of choices. If ever I come this way again I would stay here again.

Stay was really good, staff were really lovely, bed was comfy! I just have one slight complain that the entire room smelled very heavily of bleach. We had to open the window and air it out, so it wouldn’t be too overpowering during the night.

The staff at the desk were acceptably cordial but did not make much effort to be informative. We returned for dinner and 2 of the five items on the mains menu were not available. We ended up eating elsewhere. The rooms are very dated but comfortable, but ll the floors squeak horribly which is part of the quirky things you could expect. We would set it stay here again.

Quaint hotel

Quaint pub hotel with a tun of character. Twenty miles from the centre of Edinburgh, I was on a cycling weekend, and found the location perfect. I particularly enjoyed the coastal ride from Edinburgh to Berwick. Evening meals at the hotel were very generous portions.

Great stay!

Lovely common areas and rooms. Staff were attentive and everything was clean. The room was big and spacious facing a back alley. You could hear the people in other rooms but that’s to be expected. Overall a great stay!

A little bit of paradise, a short drive from the crowds enjoying Edinburgh over the summer break. Everything about this hotel and the village says come back and stay a little longer… with retirement nearing, that may indeed be the case. The staff were helpful, the food good and the spaces just delightful, all set with the perfect image of an English Village. If you want to unwind, and don’t mind the 22 miles back to Edinburgh then I can only say enjoy… I certainly did!
