    An overnight stay for myself and my daughter. From the moment we stepped through the door, every member of staff was welcoming and couldn't have worked harder to ensure a great stay. Room was excellent, food fantastic and the amenities were just what we wanted. We both had facials which we thoroughly enjoyed. Another guest was coming out of her treatment as I was going in and she remarked on how good it was too. A visit to Stobo is expensive, but in my opinion worth saving up for.

    Had overnight stay to celebrate a special birthday, it's a lovely venue set in beautiful grounds. Just a couple of points, I would have liked a bit more direction when we checked in especially as this was our first visit also my breakfast in the morning was disappointing, I ordered poached eggs on toast, I got 1 egg sitting on the smallest piece of toast, we did ask for another egg, which came without more toast. We are planning a return visit ,I'll just make better choices at breakfast, our dinner the night before was delicious and all the staff were helpful and friendly

    Wish I could afford to come every week. Stunning place in a beautiful setting. Everything is designed to make you feel relaxed, we actually napped twice! The food is delicious, grounds are beautiful, enjoyed exploring around the Japanese water gardens. Love the views from the pool, relaxation room is so peaceful and there's a great choice of treatments. Have stayed overnight before and the room was beautiful too. Only wish it was a little less expensive!

    Fabulous overnight stay! The food was out of this world! Spa immaculate, staff very helpful and friendly. Loved the touch of getting a tour of the facilities on arrival, the staff made us feel so special. I had mentioned at booking that my partner requires a gluten free diet, and upon arrival to our room he was delighted to see some gluten free biscuits! Was an expensive overnight for us but I wouldn't hesitate to return one day!

    Wow fantastic place the first thing you notice are the views around the place then how quiet it is. In side everything is to a high standard room we're in was on top floor so great views beds really comfortable. The spa and pool areas are all spotless and treatment rooms too. Food was excellent and good choice on the menu for breakfast dinner and tea. All staff were very friendly and helpful.

    This is my 4th visit to stobo and booked in for my 5th next year. We go as a group between 6 and 10 people. Never have any of us walked away disappointed. Staff extremely friendly and helpful. Food amazing every time (very accommodating for medical needs of blending meals). Treatments have never been disappointing. Location is beautiful. Always look forward to our pamper, relaxing time every year. Always happy happy customers. Only down side is having to wait a year between visits when we are all able to get together

    Heaven on earth! 5 is not enough stars πŸ˜„. Set in the most peaceful Scottish valley, this is effectively a 5 star hotel but you wander about in your robe and slippers. The food is excellent. Fine Scottish fare. The staff are friendly and efficient. The atmosphere is relaxed and not at all stuffy. Fabulous pool with glorious views of the Borders scenery. As well as a wide range of treatments, there is a tennis court, Japanese Garden and walks in the surrounding countryside. There is NOWHERE like it. I've been 22 times in the last 23 years, usually for 2 nights. Don't wait - book!

    Stobo is such a lovely place. It's the highlight of my year. The food is fantastic, the staff are lovely and spa facilities are incredible. I just wish there was more time to enjoy it during an overnight stay. The time goes too quickly. It can appear dear, but if you consider that you get 3 substantial meals, it's good value. Our most recent visit was the busiest I've experienced it, which wasn't as enjoyable as previous visits, but I'm hoping it was because of a recent promotion

    Absolutely amazing. The whole scenic view from The hotel was absolutely brilliant. The scenery on the way there was spectacular 😁. The service was excellent and staff very attentive and helpful and knowledgeable. The food was absolutely lovely. What's not to like. Felt absolutely chilled out and relaxed after my visit. Would not hesitate on going again ❀️

    I was treated to a day at the Spa. I had a wonderful time. A superb massage. Use of a superb swimming pool , outdoor hot tubs and so many other facilities. We had lunch which I was excellent. I hope it won't be long before I can come back .

    What can I say? We had two of the most luxurious days of our lives whilst staying at the enchanting Stobo Castle. The staff are absolutely brilliant: pleasant, efficient, and extremely attentive. Graeme particularly stands out. As a vegan, I was also deeply impressed with the variety and quality of the food.

    Sadly, I didn't stay the night. Just there for they evening, but as usual, Stobo did not disappoint. Brilliant facilities, though, getting a touch pricey for their evening escape. Considering the increase in cost though, you can't really blame them.

    Have been going to Stobo for 2 night breaks with my Sister for 10 years now and we are never disappointed! The quality of the food this year was exceptional. Well done Stobo to be able to maintain such high standards in these challenging times. Anna Paterson

    The spa itself is lovely. The different steam rooms and rainforest shower shower are located within the female changing rooms, where there is no access for men. It feels like men get short-changed. If staying for a half day, there are no treatments available. I think this may be the case for full day packages also. This is such a shame. Previously, you could book a treatment, and that's my favourite part. We ate in the cafe for the first time, it was very nice although pricey for what we got. I didn't stay in the hotel overnight but have previously. I felt the rooms were dated and needed upgraded to complete the experience, I'm unsure if this has been done in the last few years. Overall, I would recommend it.

    We were at Stobo for about 24 hours but left feeling like we had had a week's break! From lovely rooms to being surrounded on all sides by stunning countryside, everything about our stay was perfect. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the facilities were brilliant (especially loved the outdoor hot tubs!) but what we loved the most was the food! My daughter has been vegan for about 5 years and have never come across such an amazing selection of delicious dishes to sample. To have a fully vegan menu for each meal with as many tasty options as the regular one was a completely new experience for her. For the first time she did not feel like an afterthought in a restaurant. For this alone I thank you and we will definitely return. My fishy options were pretty good too! Thank you to all your staff for making our stay so wonderful in every way.
