Your stay at Borthick Castle
will be an unique experience as this is an authentic medieval
castle complete with the canon ball scars on the tower from Cromwell's
canons. This is not a luxury hotel it is an experience of a lifetime.
Only twelve miles from Edinburgh
in a pastoral valley, this romantic castle stands on the summit
of a knoll on the periphery of the romantic Borders immortalised
by Sir Walter Scott.
Borthwick Castle built in 1430,
is unique and exclusive. Once the refuge of Mary Queen of Scots
and the Earl of Bothwell and besieged by Oliver Cromwell in 1650,
the atmosphere and grandeur of its romantic past have been lovingly
cherished and maintained.
Relax in the elegantly proportioned State Room with its beautifully
arched windows, tapestries and the small chapel once used by
Mary Queen of Scots on her many visits to the castle.
