Field patterns in Lauderdale, Scottish Borders, Scotland. Fields near the Leader Water and a long line of plastic-wrapped bales as seen from the summit of Dabshead Hill. The reddish soil has been derived from Devonian sandstones and is characteristic of this eastern part of the Borders.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

Although we were only staying one night as a journey break, we had some great time walking our dog around the area. Stunning countryside with great views, beautiful.

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveller

Would certainly use this hotel again, not there to visit town, visiting relatives further afield.
