Dryburgh Abbey Hotel is a baronial country house hotel, located on the banks of the River Tweed, about 5 km south east of Melrose in the Scottish Borders. The modern house was first constructed in 1845 and it was converted into a hotel in 1932. It is next to the ruins of Dryburgh Abbey.
History
Country House 1845-1932
The original core of the current building was constructed in 1845. At that time it was a private residence and the home of Lady Griselle Baillie. The house was modernised in 1875 by Lord Jerviswoode, Lady Griselle’s brother, and remained in the family until 1929 when it was purchased by the Scottish Motor Traction Company.
Hotel, 1932-present
The Scottish Motor Traction Company added the east wing and launched it as a “Tourist Hotel” in 1932. The hotel changed hands several times over the intervening years.
In 2007, the hotel was taken over by a new company headed by Managing Director, John Wallace.
Facilities
Dryburgh Hotel possess 10 acres (40,000 m2) of grounds in the heart of the Borders, is dog-friendly and has plenty of car parking. It has trout fishing rights and guests have access to the stretch of the River Tweed by the hotel. The hotel can provide fishing rods too.
