Great stay at a reasonable price at the Newcastle Arms
Pros:

The evening meal we had whilst on a one night stopover was excellent as was the full English breakfast the following morning. Large shower in our room was great.

Cons:

The only downside to our stay was that the bar was open till 04.30am as Scotland were playing their first World Cup match and we heard the cheers when they scored! So no complaints for that.

One night stopover, ticked the boxes
Pros:

Basic, but clean and comfortable. Lovely breakfast. Attic room was small but fine for a one night stop over. Very friendly staff. Dog friendly, no extra charge. Adequate car parking for the number of bedrooms at the hotel. Bar meals were served in the evening, although we didn't try any.

Cons:

We were right up in the attic, which wasn't a problem for us, but several flights of stairs may be an issue for less able guests.
A little noise from the public bar overnight, but on check in staff had apologised that the bar would be open until 4am due to the Scotland football match, we had already assumed this and it wasn't an issue for us

Pros:

We were exhibiting at Border Union Championship Dog Show and needed an overnight stay for two of us and two Rough Collie dogs. The Newcastle Arms did the job. Robert was very friendly and helpful. They did us a take out breakfast of bacon rolls because we had an early start. We used the Electric Car charging. The room was very clean. The restaurant was really good, we ate with friends who were also at the show. All round, thank you.

Cons:

The bedroom was a bit small, but the dogs adjusted, we adjusted and everybody got a night's sleep (which was the whole reason for the stay).
