The Tinto Hotel

Located at Symington, near Biggar, Tinto Hotel has retained the grandeur and charm of the past while also embracing the comforts and conveniences of the modern age.

Stunning architectural details, such as the majestic sweeping staircase with ornate stained-glass windows, and remarkable period pieces, like the penny farthing bicycle and grandfather clock, sit comfortably beside the numerous touches of tasteful modernisation.

All rooms are en suite and many enjoy views across the beautiful Clyde Countryside.

They are all fully equipped with free WiFi, Freeview television, tea and coffee facilities and the option of room service.

Local sourcing

The dining room offers relaxed and intimate dining in a spectacular setting overlooking the countryside of the Scottish Borders. As much as possible, all food is sourced locally.

The menu changes regularly but typical choices might be the steak and Broughton ale pie with horseradish mash and seasonal vegetables or the baked coley fillet served with a fricassee of bacon, lettuce, parsley and peas.
