A top traveller’s rest inn. Located in a quaint quiet village with some nice walks and scenery. Had a clean and spacious room with everything we needed for an overnight stay. Food and atmosphere in the adjoining pub was excellent as were all the staff there.

We really loved our overnight stay at The Crown and Kitchen in East Linton. Really cute little place with beautiful room. The staff were so friendly and the breakfast was delicious. Would highly recommend this place. There is a train station in East Linton and only takes 20 minutes away so it’s perfect for a wee day or evening out in Edinburgh if you don’t want to stay in the city itself.

Great experience, room was spotlessly clean and bigger than expected. Used the bar downstairs on arrival and the manager was super friendly a credit to the hotel gave me some good local information so stayed in East Linton and did a riverside walk in the morning before heading to St Abbs. Morning breakfast was delicious full scottish and sets you up for the day. A great hotel with great helpful staff. Well worth visiting.
