Dalkeith House is a stunning Georgian village manse offering luxury self-catering in the

Scottish Borders village of Newcastleton. The house has been renovated to an extremely

high standard and been awarded five stars by VisitScotland. It sleeps 10 in comfort and

splendour. It is ideally suited for groups or celebrations. The house is in the heart of the

village with everything you could need right on the doorstep.

The village of Newcastleton lies close to the English

counties of Cumbria and Northumberland with the

Lakes and Hadrian’s wall within easy reach.

Surrounded by open countryside, this peaceful rural

idyll provides the perfect setting for you to relax and

recharge your batteries! Minutes from your door are

riverside walks, the challenging nine hole golf course,

the world-class 7stanes mountain bike trails as well as

a pub, two hotels and two cafés.

The fully enclosed garden is a joy throughout the

year, full of traditional borders, it has a large patio and

masses of seating for outdoor entertaining.

As we wouldn’t want to leave any member of the

family out, we welcome two well behaved dogs, the

garden is secure and fully enclosed.

busy world and yet also provides the perfect base

from which to explore the Scottish Borders and

surrounding areas.

The village has an abundance of things to see and do during your stay offering everything

from mountain biking on the famous 7stanes trails to kayaking and 4x4 off-roading.

From the challenging nine hole golf course to fishing on the Border Esk or Liddel or more

leisurely pursuits like walking, pond dipping or pony trekking. Our landscape is steeped

in legend and history all waiting to be explored. www.visitnewcastleton.com offers lots of

info.

The world-class 7stanes mountain bike trails are minutes from the house offering various trails with differing degrees of difficulty. There is a skills area to practise MTB techniques and plenty of forest trails for those who prefer much more leisurely cycling or walking.

A short drive away is Kielder Forest & Water Park with a further 28 miles of safe cycle routes and walking trails. Further afield is Hadrian’s Wall, a World Heritage site, offering a fabulous day out and a truly memorable experience.

Rock UK, will be happy to indulge you if you want to try abseiling, kayaking, fencing or archery, or

need to hire a bike for the day.

If the waters are running then try your hand at fishing for sea trout or salmon on the rivers Liddel and Esk, permits can be bought in the village during the season.

The challenge of the nine hole golf course is one you will remember, but worth it to see the breathtaking views from the third hole.

The small village of Newcastleton, with a resident population of 850, is nestled in the

valley of Liddesdale, gateway to the Scottish Borders. We are surrounded by hills and

forests with fabulous scenery, abundant wildlife and historical sites. Five hundred years

ago the hills would be ringing with the sound of clashing steel and fighting Reivers. Today

visitors experience a warm welcome.

The Border landscape is rich and varied, its history long and turbulent. From the arrival of the Romans in the 1st century, through early Christian warfare, with the invasion of the Normans and the long conflict between English and Scots, the Border was once a scene of perpetual strife.

Liddesdale lies at the heart of what was once a frontier zone and borders the Debatable Land, where raid and counter raid took place and rival factions clashed in hill and dale.

The history of the area and the Border Reivers can be found in the ruined towers and castles and ancient monuments.

Newcastleton is 25miles from the M6/M74, two hours from Edinburgh, Glasgow and Newcastle. Three hours from Manchester, four Birmingham and six from London. There is detailed travel info on our website.
