We stayed with a Harley chapter for a weekend.The food was excellent and there was more than enough. The drinks were reasonably priced. The map and drying room facilities were great. But more impressive than that was the option to use individual bike garages which were secure and some heated! A very impressive hotel for bikers. We will be back!

I stopped here in the summer whilst on a cycle tour at the end of a long, cold slog of a day and I was so happy this hotel had a vacancy. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating and even offered secure parking for my bicycle. The bar is cozy and comfortable and pints very reasonably priced. The room was impeccably clean, comfortable, and modern and I slept very well. I stopped periodically at hotels every time I got sick of camping, and the Buccleuch Arms was far and away the best of them.

The family who run this hotel go to extraordinary lengths to make their guests feel welcome. Nothing is too much trouble. The rooms are comfortable, clean and provide everything you might need.
