    I had a memorable stay at Queensberry House in Moffat. Caroline and Miles have been most welcoming and helpful. They explained all the hiking trails to me, lent me a map and guides, and were always happy to chat. The room was spotlessly clean...

    Breakfast was fantastic. Took the fully 'cooked option' (of course), some of the tastiest scrambled eggs Ive had for a long time. More than enough to keep us both filled for a day of walking. The room being downstairs mean that our tired legs had...

We are Caroline and Miles, who make up the entire team at Queensberry House. Seven years ago, we left the big city of London for the small town of Moffat to take over Queensberry House. And we haven’t looked back. Caroline was a travel journalist in a previous life and spent time reviewing hotels around the globe so she’s picked up a few useful tips along the way, from the right bedside lighting to the best bed linen and breakfast cutlery. Miles was once a builder and his maintenance skills are a useful asset to the business. He is also the king of the kitchen and has poached so many eggs he thinks he’s got it, ahem, cracked! Moffat is Europe’s first Dark Sky town and is at the heart of a spectacular landscape. The scenery is quite breath-taking here. Walkers come for the famous landmarks – the Devil’s Beef Tub and the Grey Mare’s Tail – just a short distance away, while the roads are a dream for motorcyclists. Come and see for yourself.
Discover why Moffat is Scotland’s best-kept secret. Nestled in the heart of Dumfries and Galloway, Moffat is a picturesque town surrounded by some of the most scenic and highest hills in the south of Scotland with great walking trails. Moffat became a popular spa town in the 17th century because of its sulphurous waters, believed to have healing properties. People flocked to the town for these “healing waters” which were piped from the well to what is now the Town Hall. As locals and visitors-in-the-know are aware, this historic spa town has a unique charm and character of its own, steeped in history and culture. And for a small town it has a lot to offer. There are so many quirky landmarks that provide the perfect opportunity to stop, admire and take a shot or two… Extraordinary scenic views and peaceful places. Historical buildings a-plenty. The rich green space of Station Park and its boating lake. Scotland’s narrowest street – it’s a tight squeeze! A full-size spitfire in one resident’s garden. The iconic Moffat Ram in the centre of the high street. The two oldest houses dating from 1723 and 1751. The Gothic style St Andrew’s Church. The Old Churchyard and its historic gravestones. Glorious flowerbeds all around town. Moffat stands out as a beacon of community spirit, independent shops, impressive heritage and friendly locals. It has a unique double high street which came second in Scotland’s most beautiful high street in 2017 – a competition for spaces that were “clean, attractive, accessible, vibrant and inclusive for all to enjoy”. Delve into Moffat’s independent shops from its smart interiors stores and bijou bookshop to its souvenir and gift shops, showcasing local arts and crafts. There's also a wealth of places to eat and drink, whether you want coffee and cake or a leisurely lunch between trips exploring. Or pick up a snack at a local bakery and walk along the riverside where you can perch on a bench and watch the world and the wildlife go by.
