Really good arrival instructions and nice hostless entry. Location couldn’t have been better and there’s lots of parking options nearby. Just like the pictures. Had just about everything we could have needed with some lovely touches, loved the tea selection and coffee machine. First time in Galashiels and it was great from this stop.

    When visiting Galashiels you would be advised to take a car if you can drive. Although the buses are just as good but down load the borders bus app to your phone I would also recommend down loading the scot rail train app

    A lot to visit round here!

    A lot to visit round here! We came primarily to visit the new custom-built museum that houses the Great Tapestry of Scotland. An amazing facility and display of the 160 tapestry panels. One visit is not enough. Other than the museum, there are many other attractions - I guess Abbotsford House is one of the most significant. I visited a few years ago and it is well worth a visit. Have a look at the Coulter's Candy statue in the centre of town.

The town was well supplied with varied restaurants , and has a Wetherspoons . I was on a golf trip and all courses were well maintained and very welcoming . Thoroughly enjoyed my stay .

    The surrounding countryside of Galashiels is beautiful, we had a lovely view from the window of our room. The town centre has become a bit run down over the pandemic with quite a few shops closed now. The remaining shops are good and the staff helpful and pleasant. Great transport links with the Borders railways and good bus service. Also a good few taxi services which were reasonably priced. Local people very welcoming.

    the host gave us a warm welcome with a cup of tea and biscuits. He gave us information about Galashiels and what was worth seeing. we would have missed out on The Great Tapestry of Scotland otherwise. He was always available to make sure we had everything we needed. He also gave us snacks to send us on the next stage of our journey. We had access to the kitchen and lounge area. It felt like home. everything was very clean. There was parking immediately outside the front door. It was easy walking distance to the centre of Galashiels.

    My hosts were very quick to reply to messages and it was easy to check in using the key box. The apartment is lovely and very comfortable. Nice bed, beautifully decorated and furnished, and the location is ideal. Great for two people, and it also sleeps four with the sofa bed in the living room. I'd definitely stay again. Galashiels is a lovely town too - very friendly with interesting shops and restaurants, and there are easy train and bus connections to Edinburgh.

    This is one of the few options for accommodation in Galashiels but the owners don't take advantage from it to cut corners. I am not a big fan of this type of accommodations (B&Bs/Guest houses) but there is nothing wrong with this one, I cannot see how other "top notch" B&B's are better than this one. The location is perfect, Galashiels is a small town and the place is a nice town surrounded by beautiful environment. I can definitively recommend it.

    The setting was lovely, however, it is rural. If you like quiet its perfect. Throughly enjoyed the surroundings. Galashiels is a nice town and we had a lovely Italian and Indian meal. The challet is warm and comfortable and has everything you need. Bedding and towels are good quality and spotless. The owners live near, they are discreet but helpful. My small dog was wellcome. We had a really nice stay

    The hotel is absolutely gorgeous! It felt quite special to stay in such a beautiful manor. The breakfasts were exceptional - linen tablecloths and plated service. The best part was the kindness of the wonderful staff. Lene was a bright start to our day each morning. She was professional and happy to fulfill whatever we needed. We will definitely stay here again!

    The location! Yairbrig is situated near access points to the Southern Upland Way, ideally if you want to do some walking. It is also located with easy access to both Selkirk and Galashiels, perfect for exploring either town. We used it as a base to head out and see some of the castles and towers in the area that we haven't managed to get to before.

    This works for an intimate getaway or a wedding or business event. Great meeting places and stunning gardens and surrounds. This lovely place is in the loving care of those who are gradually upgrading the historic property. The Scottish Borders hold some of the loveliest villages in the UK. GO. Fly fishing nearby on the lovely Tweed.

    The location was a 10 minute walk from the centre of Galashiels which has an excellent transport system and very good facilities eg shops, cafes, restaurants and supermarkets. The property was very clean and tidy and the owner very welcoming, accommodating, knowledgable and helpful. Breakfast was continental-style and delicious.
