NEW! Real Ale of the Moment

Come along and sample some of the finest Scottish Real Ales in the Huntsman Bar at the Buccleuch Arms Hotel

Any real drinkers coming to the Buccleuch Arms Hotel know that we only have one hand pump. This means that our real ale is incredibly fresh and never sits around long enough to go off! However, due to the way we coordinate our ordering you will never see the same beer twice in any given period. So what you drink tonight, could well have changed by tomorrow and will be different again at the weekend.

There will be beers that you prefer and ones your maybe not so sure about but it's all about personal taste and educating your palate.

We would appreciate your input. Below is a list of suppliers who we buy our real ale from and we intend to take more of your advice in future. Please drop us an email.

What they say about us...

"Dear Billy and Rachel, Gill and I want to thank you and all the staff who made yesterday's lunch such a success. You made a really lovely Christmas lunch which was much enjoyed and it went without a hitch. It must have been very difficult to control the various different menu choices, but it seemed to go without a hitch. Well done all of you. All the best for Christmas & the New Year"

Michael and Gill
