The Macdonald Cardrona Hotel, Golf & Spa, nestling on the banks of the River Tweed in a tranquil valley a few miles to the east of Peebles in the Scottish Borders, provides the luxurious setting for a relaxing, stress free Christmas break. From the moment you arrive at the hotel, welcomed with cream teas, you will enjoy the best of Scottish hospitality and a full festive programme that includes carol singing and a traditional Christmas lunch with all the trimmings. You can make full use of the superb leisure facilities, which include an 18-metre swimming pool, and a range of beauty treatments is also available. Golfers will be tempted (weather permitting) by the challenging 18-hole, par 72 golf course that complements the hotel and the surrounding landscape so beautifully. During the course of our stay there will be an excursion into the rolling Borders hills and a visit to nearby Peebles, a charming little town with an appealing timeless quality.
