Cringletie House is a warm and welcoming luxury country house within half an hour of Edinburgh. Set on a hill above the Tweed Valley, the hotel's rooms are immaculate with views of lovely extensive gardens and the surrounding hills. The food is superb and the region offers lots to do - from golf and salmon fishing to mountain biking, walks and shopping in the nearby market town of Peebles. The hotel is also dog-friendly.

Cringletie House is a good choice for a luxury weekend break in Scotland or an indulgent few days on a longer tour. Though not very far from either of Scotland's major cities, Cringletie's proximity to Edinburgh (about half an hour's drive) makes it a good alternative choice for the Edinburgh festival season - away from the noise and crowds of Edinburgh itself.
