We have just returned home from a 3 night break in Kelso. We didn't travel far, only from Newcastle, but we felt the need for a little break. We chose The Old Priory from the excellent reviews here. We were not disappointed. Robin is the most delightful host. He is a larger than life personality, has an excellent sense of humour, and is incredibly interesting, and knowledgeable. We chatted a lot, and could honestly have talked for hours. We stayed in the study room on the first floor. The bed is enormous and so incredibly comfortable with Gorgeous bedding. All this, plus Shutters and beautiful heavy curtains ensure total darkness for a lovely restful sleep, I wish I slept as well at home as I did here! Cooked Breakfast choices are left the evening before, and there is an ample choice of cereals, fruit, yoghurt, bread for toast, and gorgeous jams and marmalades, plus the largest array of teas I've ever seen! . Breakfast always arrived beautifully cooked and piping hot, with lovely hot coffee to help yourself to. There is a conservatory to sit in, and a garden, plus on site parking at the back. The property is very olde worlde, charming, quirky, brimming with history and tales to be told. Robin is very proud of the Old Priory, and rightly so. Thank you for your hospitality Robin, we would love to return if you will have us
