"We keep returning to stay and eat here a number of times. Never fails to impress. Always a warm welcome, great rooms, fresh and inspiring menus (dinner & breakfast). This time we enjoyed freshly baked pizzas outdoors with amazing views across the fields & countryside. Hope to go back again soon."

"I'm staying for 2 nights again. Working at Farne Salmon n Trout factory. The hotel is a bit tired, but decorators are in just now smartening up the place. Stayed here for 2 nights, 2 weeks ago. Back for 2 nights again. Room needs gutted, especially the bathroom. This seems to be in hand as new owners, I believe. Staff are amazing. Girls behind the bar are superb. Breakfast girl is just 1st class. Had a dinner 2 weeks ago. Hot food on a cold plate. Sorry, but that's just not on. Told Jan on my 1st visit. 2nd visit, same again. Food is cooked so well. In fact, the food is bloody brilliant. Such a shame my complaint has fallen on deaf ears. PUT HOT FOOD ON A COLD PLATE. THE HOT FOOD TRIES SO HARD TO HEAT UP THE PLATE THAT ITS ON, THAT IT'S COLD IN 10/15 MINS. A CHEF REALLY NEEDS TO KNOW THAT. VERY DISAPPOINTING. Great bar. Sky sports. Great staff. So friendly. Please get the simplest of things right. The breakfast girl did this morning. Heat the plate up before putting food on it. It's just so easy. My only moan about here. My friend Gordon R would be horrified. I've secured a good contract at Farne up the road. I'm off to the chippy tonight cos they don't have cold plates. Please take heed of this review. It's so easily dealt with. I will be back. Cheers. Cookie."

"One of my favourite places I stayed during my travels in Scotland (and I stayed in some lovely places!). I only stayed for one night while travelling north to Aberdeen and was disappointed I didn't have more time to stay as the property was gorgeous. My room had a reading nook in the tower, and the communal lounge area was beautifully appointed and so cosy and inviting, with beautiful views across the landscape. Breakfast was absolutely delicious. The staff were both friendly and helpful, and nothing was too much trouble. Would highly recommend."

"Fantastic venue for a short break. We stayed in room 4 which was a comfortable large double with views over the village green. All staff were excellent throughout but the best aspect of our stay was the quality of the cooking. Best bit of roast pork belly we've ever eaten!"

"The Coach House is in a quiet secluded location between Chirnside and Allanton. It's extremely peaceful and a great place to relax and unwind. The cottage is spacious and comfortable with all the amenities you need for your stay. Liz is very helpful and was available to answer any questions. It's a perfect place to stay for the Jim Clark Rally and I highly recommend it!"

"We spent a lovely weekend at GreenHope and had a really great weekend. Alison and Bill were so hospitable and kind and the accommodation was top class. A lovely little semi detached bungalow with a full working kitchen with all mod cons, a sitting room and bedroom with en suite shower and toilet. It was immaculate and spotless and the surroundings were like something from a movie. Patio doors from the sitting room leading out to a patio had the most spectacular view looking onto a flowing river between two rolling glens. Absolutely breathtaking. Alison allowed us to park our car right next to the bungalow too so it was super convenient. The peace and tranquility was priceless and just what we needed after having a hectic Christmas and New Year period. We booked again for 6 weeks time as seeing the area in Spring will be spectacular. If you like stargazing then this is the place too. One clear evening gave us the most dazzling curtain of stars and I imagine in Spring the milky way could be spotted. Duns is only a 15 minute drive if you need supplies or want to go for lunch or dinner which we did and enjoyed it to no end. Its great value for money and at only an hour away from Edinburgh you can enjoy the most peaceful and resting retreat imaginable. Whether youre from Scotland or further afield Green Hope is a must for those looking for a quiet break away from city life."
