We stayed in one of Paxton House’s new glamping pods this autumn and were utterly enchanted. Nestled beside the stately home, forest walks, and the gentle River Tweed, the setting is delightful. The pod itself radiated hygge. Warm, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed for comfort. Crisp mornings, golden leaves, and birdsong made it feel like a storybook escape. The staff were exceptional, going above and beyond to make our stay special. From the immaculate interiors to the peaceful surroundings, everything was perfect. A truly restorative retreat that blends nature, history, and hospitality with effortless charm. We can’t wait to return.

Stables Tea Room – Afternoon Tea
OMG what a lovely surprise, more than your usual afternoon tea and I’ve had a few. We sat down and were immediately given a wee china tea cup full of hot soup – delicious, then came the Afternoon tea, we could not believe it, turkey, stuffing and gravy sandwiches, egg mayo, ham and pickle, cheese and pickle, home made sausage rolls, home made quiche, cheese scones, then the desert tower, all manner of goodies as well as scones, jam and clotted cream. Unlimited tea and coffee. We were royally stuffed , the best value for money ever by sheer amount. Anything left we were given take away boxes for so we could enjoy later at home.
Bravo to the cook/ staff unbelievable quality, amount and great service. Book in advance but well worth it. £26 per person and thoroughly worth every penny.
