Chirnside Hall is a small country-house hotel in the Scottish Borders. Privately owned by Christian and Tessa Korsten, it combines the best elements of traditional and modern hospitality - fabulous nineteenth-century architecture with twenty-first century comfort.
The house was built in 1834 as a holiday home for an affluent Edinburgh businessman. Almost two centuries later, it remains a wonderful and relaxing retreat. The elegant dining room and bedrooms are the perfect backdrop for good food, roaring open fires, and stunning views of the Cheviot Hills. Secluded and peaceful, and just a short drive from the Lammermuir Hills and Berwickshire coast, Chirnside is still convenient for the shops and sights of Edinburgh and Newcastle.
As a small and independent hotel, we’re here to indulge you. We try to meet your every need – from recommending a good place for lunch, to telling you the best walks, or helping you dry out your boots after a great day in the Scottish Borders countryside. As a result, many of our guests return to us again and again – it’s a version of country-house living that’s better than the real thing!
Bedrooms
Our ten spacious en-suite bedrooms all have individual character and wonderful views. Traditional furnishings retain the country-house feel, but we’ve added levels of comfort and convenience inconceivable to the original Victorian occupants – for example, free Wi-Fi access, flat-screen televisions, and hairdryers.
Deep comfortable beds, soft wool carpeting, and fresh cotton linens add to the atmosphere of indulgence – as do the luxurious toiletries you’ll find in the modern, en-suite bathrooms. There is a choice of double and twin bedrooms, and some rooms even have a four-poster bed, to add a further element of romance and history.
