We stayed for two nights while in town to go to Kelso races. The house is very nice, full of character and very comfortable. The breakfasts are made to your order and were excellent. Robin is very helpful and can tell a story. We would happily stay again next time we are in town.

We spent three nights in the Turret Room. Although the room faced the road, it was very quiet. The room is spacious, the bed warm and comfortable. The en suite is large with an excellent shower. Robin is an exceptional host who provides a tasty home cooked breakfast. You won’t go wrong booking a few nights here if you are visiting Kelso or the surrounding area.

Excellent. Nothing much to add. Lovely house, great room, comfy bed, perfect location, fantastic breakfast. Robin is a lovely host, great entertainer and he knows how to cook! Definitely going to stay again next time we'll be visiting Kelso.

Spent three nights here last week and it was a delightful experience. It’s full of character with beautiful rooms in a fine historic building in the heart of Kelso with the Abbey behind and one of the town’s streets in front. Parking is no problem and the sights, shops and restaurants of Kelso are close by. Breakfasts are excellent, freshly prepared by Robin, the owner who is rightly proud of his outstanding facilities. Thank you, Robin for your warm welcome, help and advice. The Old Priory will be our first call when next in Kelso.

We stayed at the Old Priory in Kelso for four nights. We had a very nice and comfortable time there in the family suite. Breakfast was good with many options for cooked food. Thank you Robin for all your good advice referring to the things to do in the area and on our way back to Newcastle. All the best, Annette and Thomas

My adult daughter and I wanted accommodation for two nights as we had tickets for the Borders Book Festival at Melrose. Each of us likes our own bedroom space if possible and the Family Suite with two bedrooms at the Old Priory suited us well. We enjoyed our modern bathroom, but also the quirky features of the house. Our genial host Robin made sure we had everything we needed, including plenty of breakfast options, which we ordered the previous evening. Private car parking was a bonus and a conservatory overlooked the garden. The Old Priory is in the centre of town, but it was very quiet. In Kelso, we particularly like Cafe U, with its emphasis on wholefoods and lovely staff. It's tucked away, but very worth seeking out.

Lovely quirky clean room with plenty of space, good shower, lovely breakfast with plenty of choice. Rear parking. We had the Turret room which , though roadside, was pretty quiet. Robin, the host was a very helpful, genial character with a good sense of humour. Shame we only stayed for one night, we were primarily here for the racing, walk to course about 20-25mins, but there seems so much more to this picturesque town and surrounding areas. We now know where to stay when we come back, cheers Robin

Once again had such a wonderful stay Robin always looks after us, he is extremely friendly host, helpful & very accommodating. There’s lots of choice for breakfast, & it has always been delicious. The house is quirky but indeed very lovely. Comfortable beds, & shutters to keep the room dark which is a bonus. Looking forward to coming back next year Many thanks Robin for your hospitality. Sam & Keith
