Clean, comfortable, freshly decorated (apparently only opened last summer); fixtures & fittings in excellent order & of the very highest quality; likewise things like linen, shower gel, coffee, home made shortbread in rooms etc. Dinner in restaurant excellent; service efficient, skilful and friendly. Front of house staff welcoming, efficient, friendly & above all, very kind when an older member of our party got into mobility difficulties. Had slightly feared we’d be told, “we’re not insured for this kind of thing” but the staff member (Siobhan) concerned could not have been kinder or more understanding & helpful. Breakfast excellent. The whole thing was a brilliant experience for us. Cannot rate the whole place highly enough.

This very ancient village with beautiful architecture peace, rivers and forests near by was a real find. I highly recommend, so near to Edinburgh and the beautiful Bass Rock off the coast of North Berwick. I enjoyed boat trips to find gannets, puffins, dolphins and learnt about the historic coast line and it’s Second World War activity!!!
Who could resist lobster for lunch at the Lobster shack North Berwick!!

A suitable location for exploring East Lothian, visiting Edinburgh and, to some extent, Berwickshire. Well suited as a base for cycling/walking or as a destination given there are decent food options e.g. cafe Lantern Rouge and the hotels.
Yester castle ruins which has the "Goblins Hall" is a short walk from the town.

A beautiful untouched Scottish village.
A beautiful untouched Scottish village. Surrounded by lovely woodland and rolling hills. Near historic Haddington. A few hundred feet from the hotel are the imposing and elegant gates to Yester House. There is a nice cafe round the corner and a village shop. The church has a 17th to 18th century interior. One of the ministers emigrated and became a signatory of the American Declaration of Independence. So free-thinking!

There were no downsides to Gifford in our opinion.
There were no downsides to Gifford in our opinion. A picturesque, historic village perfectly situated for country walks, access to plenty historic castles and stunning beaches (Dirleton, Gullane, North Berwick and more) whilst also offering easy access to Edinburgh city centre. We went there by car, but there are buses into Edinburgh and a short taxi drive away there is a train station. For those with a car and an interest in Scottish history the castles at Tantallon (sadly closed at the moment for safety reasons) where the medieval powerhouse of the Douglas family lived and Direlton and Fast are worth visits in addition to the more obvious Edinburgh castle. A quiet location but with lively bars in the evenings giving an opportunity to meet local people. I recommend the atmosphere, with log fires and comfy couches, and the food at the Goblin 'Ha hotel although we didn't go in the other bar/hotel so this is no reflection on its service.

The hotel was wonderful, staff were extremely helpful and welcoming. It was such a chilled atmosphere and nothing was too much trouble to the staff. We were there for our son’s wedding so there was a big group. All of the room were very clean and comfortable. The food was also delicious
We would definitely stay there again. Thank you Tweedale Arms!!
The hotel had been left to run down but recently it’s been taken over and the couple who now run it are doing their best to bring the property back up to a good standard . The food was tasty and of good quality .
