"The County", hotel in Selkirk

Located in central picturesque Selkirk, the "The County" is a friendly former coaching inn on the market square. Each room has an private bathroom with a walk-in shower.

Breakfast was an option, but we opted instead to use the communal refrigerator and eat a cold breakfast that we purchased at the nearby market. We were offered the use of the area for dinner if we had wanted to get takeaway. That type of flexibility is nice when you have been traveling for a while.

    We had a few hours to use before checking in to the Hotel so we went to Walter Scotts Court Room with a very entertaining guide - Julian? Also went to the museum with equally informative guide - sorry not sure of her name. Both are FREE as is the parking! Highly recoomend Peony Rose for food.

    An interesting looking town that I would like to get to know better. Excellent meals out at the Fleece Inn and Kitchen and at Number One Bistro. The Riding of the Marches was on which showed the community spirit.

    Selkirk was a lovely little town surrounded by lovely hills and scenery. Town had plenty lovely cafes and restaurants and shops to visit as well as attractions to visit. The Haining was a beautiful hidden gem of the town. People was super friendly too.

    Selkirk is a small border town with small individual shops and cafes. We stayed 3 nights at Philipburn Hotel on the edge of Selkirk and really used it as a base to tour around other places in the borders, Floors Castle, Kelso, Melrose, Scotts View.

    There's not a lot actually in Selkirk - it is suffering as are so many places with the impact of C-19, but it's a good base for Holy Island and the Roslyn Chapel. We booked the County Hotel as it's in the centre and as we were travelling by motorcycle wanted to be at somewhere that provided food or was available in walking distance.

    Selkirk is perhaps a little over-shadowed by the Peebles,...

    Selkirk is perhaps a little over-shadowed by the Peebles, Jedburgh and Kelso within the Scottish Borders and while undoubtedly smaller should not be overlooked. There are a number of museums and Haining Park and Loch, just a few minutes' walk from the town centre, is great for woodland walks and a circuit of pretty Haining Loch. There are a few restaurants, including pub-dining, Chinese and Thai, in the town centre together with a range of take-aways. Selkirk makes a good base for a visit to the Scottish Borders and is a well-located stopping off point for a few days if travelling further north within Scotland and headling south into England.

    I travel frequently and stay in a huge assortment of properties. While this hotel is still (quite rightly) exercising an abundance of caution regarding COVID-19 precautions it is not open to then general public and therefore the front desk isn't available other than for check-in/check out, so the place does tend to look closed at first sight. However, the interior, the welcome, the unpretentious hearty food and the service from the staff couldn't be better.

    The double room was fresh and clean upon arrival. With unseasonably hot weather, we were glad that fans were available for each room upon request. The rooms were cozy and nicely decorated. The staff were courteous and the breakfast was very good. The private, off-street parking was accessible and spacious. There are a variety of restaurants in Selkirk from which to choose, as well as numerous attractions within easy driving distance.

    Sonny greated us on our arrival and throughout our stay was extremely polite and knowledgeable. Nothing was too much trouble. This is a family run hotel and the whole family had the same ethos their visitors are special. The property was refurbished during lockdown and is of an exceptional standard whilst inkeeping of the ye old period complete with coal fire. The staircase is magnificent 👌

    Absolutely delighted with our stay! The hospitality from Sonny, his wee ma and the team was exceptional. Sonny in particular was so attentive and made it such a warm and welcoming experience. The meals (breakfasts and dinner) were fantastic. The hotel's picturesque location added to the charm, and the hotel itself is lovely. Can't praise it enough, I just hope we manage to return soon ❤️

    I never usually complete surveys. This time I will as my stay was so good. The cottage was clean fresh and tidy, the rooms were roomy and light and far better than any equivalent priced hotel could ever offer, the owners provided a welcome hamper. It was a perfect place to stay in a beautiful part of Southern Scotland I will return

    the hotel and grounds were lovely. Our host Sonny couldn’t have been more friendly or helpful, and he went above and beyond to make sure everything was ok for us. We had a meal in the restaurant on the first night which was delicious, and the breakfast was very nice too. We are already planning another visit

    We stayed here during a motorbike trip to Scotland and found the accommodation excellent although my room was a little on the small size it was very clean and the breakfast was excellent with plenty of choice. It felt safe parking our bikes outside the hotel overnight.

    Everything about the hotel was lovely. It was a beautiful clean room with a lovely view and the breakfast was delicious. You decided the night before from a selection of options what you would like and so everything was just as you wanted the next morning.
