World famous house offering luxury accommodation for groups of up to 16 in the beautiful Scottish Borders

Holiday Rental for Groups of Families and Friends.
Abbotsford, Hope Scott Wing, Melrose, Roxburghshire, Scotland, sleeps 6-16 in 7 bedrooms.

Perfectly situated amidst the rolling hills of the Scottish Borders, Abbotsford’s Hope Scott Wing is the ideal luxury accommodation for groups of up to 16 guests on a self-catering basis. Once home to Sir Walter Scott’s granddaughter, Charlotte, the Hope Scott Wing retains the intimacy and integrity of a family home, while introducing all the essentials of modern-day comfort.

Wherever your interests lie, whether it be history, culture, romance, the great outdoors or rest and relaxation, you will find them amply represented here at the heart of “Scott Country”. Our experienced staff will be delighted to help you curate a bespoke itinerary that makes your stay truly unforgettable. A range of excellent itineraries and catering services can be arranged, such as banquets in Scott’s magnificent dining room, clay pigeon shooting and golfing in the local area, guided tours, hot tub hire and even a personal chef.

With seven luxury ensuite bedrooms, and an adjoining additional eighth bedroom, this accommodation is ideal for families, groups of friends or colleagues celebrating a special occasion, or those simply looking to escape to the Scottish Borders in style. All the bedrooms are individually styled and named after family members or distinguished guests of the Hope Scott's, including Queen Elizabeth II’s aunt, Princess Alice, who was a regular visitor. These include a grand four-poster ensuite bedroom, a deluxe fully accessible suite and five luxurious double or twin ensuite rooms, one with an adjoining queen-size room – perfect for a young family or close friends.

The elegant public rooms provide the perfect place to celebrate and relax. You can enjoy the peaceful reading room, billiard room, games corner and lavish sitting room. A large bespoke kitchen comes with a range of excellent facilities and the formal dining room boasts spectacular views of the River Tweed. Outside you can unwind in the privacy of Hope Scott Wing’s courtyard and patio garden, stroll along the woodland and riverside paths and have exclusive afterhours access to Scott’s immaculate Regency Gardens.
