The rooms in this b&b are spacious with interesting decor. The situation is ideal for the town centre, friendly owner and the choice for breakfast excellent. I would happily recommend this b&b to anyone.
Excellent stay, very relaxing. The beds are very comfortable, breakfast is super and plentiful. The room had a view over the very pleasant garden and all run by a very congenial host.
Robin was great. Room and food were lovely. Obviously takes real pride in his guesthouse and the house and garden were beautiful. 100% would stay again
We had a wonderful stay at the Old Priory. The room is so spacious and luxurious. Robin is such a kind, knowledgeable host. He so looked after us. I loved a delicious cooked breakfast each morning.
The Old Priory is two minutes walk from Kelso's Main Square. The house has a beautiful back garden
We stayed one night in this quaint b & b the host was polite friendly and informative and served a lovely made to order breakfast. It is located in the centre of Kelso so its convenient for shops local pubs and cafes as well as Floors Castle but no noise issues in the evening. Onsite parking to the rear of the property was also a bonus. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit and wouldnt hesitate to stay again.
This was a lovely place to stay, unfortunately we did not have time to appreciate the premises as we were on a whistle-stop business trip. The proprietor was very pleasant and even provided a picnic breakfast for one of our party who had to rush away before breakfast. A gesture which was very much appreciated.
the location was central and kelso is just an amazing place with so much to offer. its a must do to paddle in the tweed and walk the hills and see the sights. historic walks and breath taking views.
Amazing welcome from Robin to his home / B&B. Family room was spacious with king bed in one room and two single in the other. Amenities worked well and was very comfortable. Robin’s local knowledge was invaluable. Would definitely recommend.
We stayed in The Library room, which was previously used as a guest sitting room. Probably the largest B&B accommodation we’ve ever had. More floor space than a modern 1-bed apartment! Lovely big comfortable bed, modern spacious en-suite, and lots of traditional/quirky furnishings. Full Scottish breakfast was superb.

First time staying at a b&b. Host Robin is very friendly and helpful, not a bad breakfast cook either. 🙂. Lots of character in room and furnished as such. Bed was excellent, so comfy. Highly recommend
Robin was a superb host and his property is lovely. By far the best place we stayed in for our week around the Scottish Borders. When our son left his wallet behind with all of his spending money, Robin found it and immediately mailed it back to the US for our son! Thank you for going above and beyond for our family!
Location was spot on - very central. The room overlooked the back garden and courtyard so it was very quiet - no noise from outside.
Room was wonderful - decor very much in keeping with the age of the house. It was very unique.
Service was brilliant and very welcoming. It felt like a home from home. Robin was a great host. Breakfast was amazing - wonderful eggs and the best bacon ever!!!!
Would certainly stay here again and would recommend it to anyone
The bed and breakfast was delightful, clean, conveniently located and the breakfast was lovely. Every morning the proprietor, Robin, harangad us with anecdotes about how awful the guests were. He made us feel very unwelcome. I would not recommend staying there unless you can interact with his wife instead.
This lovely old building offer good parking and a great position to enjoy all that Kelso and the surrounding area has to offer. Traditionally decorated in keeping with its age the property has seating areas in the garden and the conservatory for relaxing outside of the bedroom. We stayed in the Turret Room, which is curb side but not noisy with shutters effective in keeping out the light to aid a good night’s sleep. The room was clean and comfortable with a generous hospitality tray and a useful information pack. The breakfast was outstanding with a good range of hot options, alongside fresh bread, an array of homemade jams and marmalades, fruit and cereal. As a vegan I was well catered for.
