Good food and friendly

We called in twice for an evening meal at the Philipburn Hotel during our stay in the Selkirk area and found that the food & the service was just amazing. The place is spotlessly clean and the attention to detail is seen throughout the Hotel. The quality of all the food was excellent and the presentation of all the courses was so professional. Needless to say we certainly enjoyed both meals at the Philipburn and would certainly call in again if we return to that area. Initially we had mainly called in as it was Dog Friendly and of course this does restrict where you can eat but the Philipburn certainly made us feel very welcome and the lounge / bar area was very comfortable. All the food was excellent but the Sea Bass and the Fresh Fruit Sundae were just outstandingly good. Some great beers available as well.

This is a beautiful hotel in lovely surroundings. Everything has been tastefully designed. The food was excellent. The gardens were beautiful. The lounge was lovely to relax in. Storage facilities for cycles was very impressive.

Went for 2 nights stay for cousins 60th. Room was well above our expectations. Spacious , clean and comfortable. Garden room was a bonus, sat out few hours. Gardens were well kept and lots of it. Hotel was beautifully decorated throughout, so tasteful. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Would definitely recommend this lovely family owned hotel.

First time in your hotel but hopefully not the last. The staff are all polite and helpful, the hotel is clean and attractive, our room [ 9 ] was great, two levels and a balcony. The entrance with koi carp pond and the grounds are all well kept and lovely. The food was first class in the evening and wow what a delicious breakfast ? Thanks for making our stay so easy. You've got it spot on Philipburn Hotel.

I would highly recommend this beautiful hotel. We were greeted with a lovely welcome when we arrived. The room was lovely and clean with a lovely garden view from balconies from living area and bedroom . The jacuzzi bath was a lovely surprise. The dinner and breakfast were lovely and staff very attentive. Rugby club on your doorstep, which was very welcoming from staff and members, the lady behind the bar even gave us a lift back to our hotel. The whole experience was just perfect. Thank you

We got this stay at this hotel as a present so we were not sure what to expect on arrival staff lovely and friendly gave us key to a lovely well appointed room clean and tidy, very warm so we had to turn off radiators and open windows not a bad thing in some People?s opinions. We booked for a meal to see what it was like and we were definitely not disappointed the food was superb I had soup of the day followed by the lamb cooked just right my other half had a steak again just right so we booked for dinner the next night. The breakfast in my opinion was superb as I?m watching the calories fresh fruit and yoghurt then the health option grilled bacon mushroom tomatoes and poached egg lovely. The young staff in the dinning area were a delight, if we are in this area again we would definitely stay here.

Got an Itison deal as part of Christmas and we went Thursday/Friday. Stayed in the Garden Room and was surprised at the size of room etc. Everything you need. Marie was on hand and couldn't do enough but was never in your face. The young boys serving breakfast on the Saturday were professional and helpful. A very quiet break good to re charge batteries. Excellent food and service. Would return

This was our first visit to the Philipburn Hotel and will not be our last. A lovely hotel In beautiful grounds with an interesting history. Our large double room had a king size bed with high quality bedding, the bathroom had a shower and good size bath. We ate in the Dining Room on the first night and had a bar meal on our second night. The food was delicious, so well presented and served by friendly staff. All the staff we met were friendly and helpful and we had some lovely chats with Marie the proprietor.

My friend and I had a very relaxing 2 night stay. The hotel was immaculate. Our room was very comfortable and scrupulously clean. There was a good selection on the menu and meals were excellent. The waiting staff were very friendly and attentive. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The hotel is in a quiet location on the outskirts of Selkirk and is ideally situated to explore the Scottish Borders.

It seems the stay is on their terms. What time you dine, how many sit at a table. The staff are a mix, some cannot do enough to help, really lovely caring people. Sadly the others rude, lack of personal space. Bills have to be settled on a daily basis. Evening food very average, breakfast lovely. Credit to Anne and Rachel, they were the best thing about the hotel. Its a beautiful setting and the rooms are lovely but shame about feeling like you are unwelcome when actually all you are trying to do is keep your group happy.
