A warm, friendly welcome awaits you. We   are   a   small   family-run   coaching   inn   in   the   village   of   Leitholm   (pronounced Leitolm,   the   ‘h’   is   silent),   near   Coldstream,   in   the   Scottish   Borders.   We   are   family and    dog-friendly.    David    manages    front-of-house    and    our    cellar    while    Sarah manages behind the scene and cooks our delicous food. The   Scottish   Borders   offers   spectular   scenery,   loads   to   do   -   crafting,   golfing, walking,   cycling,   horse-riding,   fishing,   hunting,   wild   swimming,   surfing,   historical sites, wildlife boat trips to name but a few - and great places to eat local produce. Being    just    six    miles    from    the    Border,    we    are    perfectly    situated    to    explore Northumbland   as   well   as   Berwicksire   and   Roxboughshire.   We   are   45   miles   from Edinburgh   and   66   miles   from   Newcastle,   so   a   day   trip   is   easy   to   do   either   by   car   or car and train. We    welcome    cyclists,    bikers,    riders    and    walkers    whether    for    a    pitstop    or    an overnight   stay.   We   have   secure   storage   for   bikes   and   can   arrange   livery   stabling locally.   Top of Page Accommodation: We   have   four   comfortable,   well-appointed   en-suite   guest   rooms   –   Hope,   Miller, Pitman   and   Thomson   -   on   the   first   floor;   all   rooms   are   strictly   non-smoking   and non-vaping.   Each   room   has   a   refreshment   tray,   kettle,   coffee   machine,   hairdryer, shaving point, toiletries, radio, smart TV and complimentary wifi.

The   nature   of   food   donations   to   the   Larder   means   there   is   no   guarantee   of   what will   be   available   each   week.   We   anticipate   providing   a   soup   (v/gf),   a   filled   roll   and something   sweet   along   with   bottomless   tea   and   coffee.   Our   log   burner   will   be   lit and heating the Bar each Monday until the end of April.
