Balcary House Hotel

Thanks to Sure & Dave for being wonderful hosts. We enjoyed as a family and will definitely be coming back soon. We enjoyed the lovely walk, great hot breakfast (Thanks to the chef) with excellent coffee too. My boys loved their stay at Hawick :) Special mention about Hospitality staff named ‘Fern’ for her lovely service. Many thanks again. Keep up the good work team xx

As there was a wedding taking place we couldn’t have a bar meal. Not really an issue as we had a very nice Italian dinner at a restaurant on Hawick

Easy walking distance to Hawick, beautiful grounds, quiet, comfortable room and delicious breakfast.

The hotel was a lovely old house restored to a high standard. Our room was very clean, spacious and functional, with a modern bathroom. Breakfast was very good. We really enjoyed our stay and would happily come back here.

The staff were lovely the room was so comfortable. At breakfast the chef offered to make you anything you wanted and was super friendly. Would definitely recommend. I have stayed here twice now

Loved the setting and History of the Hotel. Breakfast was great.

Room excellent but room 2 saw next door and their bathroom was across the corridor entrance to our room so we could hear their door being opened during the night. Disturbing!

Had a lovely big Lodge, but there wasn’t a mirror in the bedroom only a small handheld makeup mirror in bathroom and a mirror over the bathroom sink, no where to dry hair or straighten hair. Lodge was a great size but lacked finishing touches, a chair would have been nice to sit on and a dressing table. Long driveway was pitch black no lights at all to help you find your way to the hotel in the evenings we had to find our way by torch app on phone. Not safe. The young ladies waiting on in breakfast room were very pleasant and friendly.

We stay one night. The house is located in a quiet place just a short distance from down town. Bedroom and bath clean and comfortable. Breakfast okay. Good place to stay

Excellent hotel

Quite lovely home, peaceful grounds and very friendly and responsive staff.

A well-restored historical small hotel.. Rooms tastefully decorated, however there are a few small issues that could be improved to make a more comfortable stay to elevate the experience. Room needed better situated electrical sockets anywhere near mirror for hairdryer use. Bath towels were too small. Bedside lamp shades not attached to base and fell off. A rather luke-warm welcome on arrival was disappointing.

My partner and I loved our stay here. Everyone was friendly and generous, the room was lovely, the grounds were beautiful, and everything felt so Scottish.

Spacious room, excellent staff, fabulous breakfast served, reasonably priced. Definitely recommended

Great stay. Very comfortable hotel, with a great lounge to relax in. Well cooked breakfast.

Very clean and owners could not do enough to make the stay pleasant. The room needed more storage for clothes No drawers.

When we arrived at the Hotel, the half dozen or so parking places were used, so we had to park around the back of the hotel. I went in to pay and l was met by a brisk "Can l help you?" The middle aged Gent dealt with my paperwork, whilst l went out to get my hand bag. I went back in to pay and asked if we could book dinner at the Restaurant, (which was mentioned in the Hotels.com blurb) which was replied to with a disappointing reply that we couldn't book dinner as it wasn't available and that we should head on into the town centre to find food. I was a bit annoyed at this, as we had paid the price for this Hotel, believing, that we should have been able to relax and have dinner at a Hotel of this calibre, especially when the Restaurant was listed in the Hotel's amenities. Our room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. The en-suite bathroom was adequate, although l was unable to use the shower as it involved climbing into the bath first! The breakfast the following day, had several choices available with the usual jars of jam, honey, marmalade etc. and a selection of cooked items from a menu. Toast, tea/coffee were also served to the table.

Comfortable room, clean bathroom, nice breakfast. Easy to get into Hawick. Minor downside was difficulty finding anyone to check in or out, neighbourhood dogs barking until 11pm, and other guests large dog being allowed in the upstairs room and landing so we discovered it right outside our room door when we opened it. Would probably stay again but the dog situation is a bit off putting- question of hygiene in bedrooms if they are allowed there

Loved the cleanliness, the quiet location and ambience.

A lovely small and personal hotel with large and spacious room/ensuite. Breakfast was disappointing - a churlish waitress, a potato scone but no square sausage (a cooked breakfast in Scotland but not a Scottish cooked breakfast) - better cutlery and crockery would have been more fitting for Balcary House Hotel than the "Diner" style in use. I would stop here again.
