From the manager

Situated in the rolling hills of the Scottish Borders, Abbotsford’s Hope Scott Wing is the perfect luxury accommodation for groups of up to 16 guests on a self-catering basis.

Once home to Sir Walter Scott’s granddaughter, Charlotte Hope Scott, the Hope Scott Wing retains the intimacy and integrity of a family home, while introducing all the essentials of modern-day comfort. Guests can relax in a unique combination of the personal and the historical in this intimate country retreat, which still retains many of its original features, as well as Scott family belongings, including original artworks and furniture.

A range of bespoke itineraries and catering services including banquets in Scott’s magnificent dining room, exclusive access to the gardens, clay pigeon shooting, guided tours, hot tub hire and even a personal chef can also be arranged.

There are seven luxurious bedrooms and six bathrooms. With the exception of the four-poster bedroom, all the rooms can be made into double or twins rooms at your request. There is also an additional adjoining eighth queen-sized bedroom, perfect for a young family or close friends. Special arrangements can be made for two extra children's beds.

The public rooms include a sumptuous drawing room, a formal dining room seating 16, a reading room and a billiard room. There is also a spacious, breakfast kitchen with plenty of room for informal dining, a private courtyard and a private patio garden.

Guests can bring up to three dogs that can enjoy their stay on the lower ground floor of the Wing, equipped with two dog beds, dog bowls and grooming equipment. Our magnificent woodland areas and picturesque gardens provide plenty of open space for dogs to enjoy and they will receive a warm welcome at our on-site café.

Abbotsford is the perfect location for special occasions and family celebrations. We offer anniversary, christening, birthday and intimate wedding packages. View our website for more details.

    Response from the manager
    Thank you very much for the glowing review. It was lovely to meet you and all of your family and friends (including all of the dogs!). The Wing is really well equipped for a large group to come and stay and as you found there are lots of lovely walks on the estate and nearby. It was unfortunate regarding the fire evacuation but not many guests experience our local fire service attending to wish them Happy Birthday! I am pleased to hear you would like to return to stay and I look forward to welcoming you back again to the Wing. Carole
