Welcome

We're just 12 miles from the England Scotland Border and are the original First and Last Inn on the A68.

A great stop off point to sit and admire the wonderful scenery, you can sit outside on a lovely sunny day and just watch and listen to the wildlife.

 Many a traveller uses our location as a great photo opportunity.

The oldest part of the building is over 600 years old and is a former bastle house - a fortified dwelling that provided defence during the late middle ages when this part of the world was known as the "Debatable Lands" - A lawless region roamed over by bands of outlaws from both sides of the border known as Border Reivers.

Today the area is a tranquil place where visitors from both sides of the border can be assured of a very warm welcome, good food and hospitality and some fabulous scenery.
