Cringletie House Hotel

Cringletie House Hotel is one of the finest places to stay in the Borders , a lavish retreat that is perfect for a relaxed weekend break. An old sandstone dame, Cringletie reclines in expansive grounds with hills rolling all around.

The suite is worth splashing out for with its hot tub, and their plush restaurant is worth visiting in its own right.

Outside, walks in the grounds, a walled garden and putting await, while inside the well-stocked whisky bar and roaring fires beckon. And in the graceful twin dining rooms the mercurial French chef Patrick Bardoulet works wonders with the freshest of Borders produce, creating sparkling surprises on his tasting menu such as pheasant cock-a-leekie soup and monkfish spiced with chorizo.
