Romantic things to do together at The House in the Hill

A romantic escape doesn’t need a packed itinerary. Some of the most memorable moments come from slowing down and sharing the simple pleasures...

Enjoy cosy evenings in

Prepare a favourite meal, open a bottle of wine, light the ceiling-hung fireplace, and enjoy a relaxed evening together... and make sure you pop up to the rooftop terrace to take in the Dark Skies above The House in the Hill. The star-strewn skies look particularly amazing from the hot tub!

Explore the countryside

Take a peaceful walk across rolling hills or along Dere Street, breathe in the fresh air, and savour the charm and romance of the Scottish Borders.

Savour lazy mornings

One of the greatest luxuries of a romantic getaway is time. Sleep in, enjoy a slow breakfast of fresh sourdough toast and local jam (included in your welcome hamper), and make the most of unhurried mornings spent together.

Add a touch of romance!

Planning on making a last-minute booking? Or perhaps you'd prefer the element of surprise? When booking a break at The House in the Hill, you can add some romantic extras ahead of your arrival, including:

• Champagne and/or prosecco on ice

• Local gin & tonic

• Flowers and chocolates 

The House in the Hill is the perfect place to escape to for Valentine’s Day, anniversaries, birthdays, or simply because you deserve a break. If you’re flexible, a midweek stay or a date just before or after Valentine’s Day can be just as romantic, and lets be honest, would your other half ever turn down a country escape for two? No, neither would ours.
