Activities
Starting with our activities. Whether you want to pretend you’re at the Wimbledon Final on our tennis courts, try zipping around on our EZ Raiders, or enjoy a relaxing swim in our pool, we have something for all the family. Don’t forget about our Mini Land Rovers for tiny tots too - who says you have to be 17 to drive a car? Not us.
Local Walks
We are lucky at Peebles Hydro Hotel to be surrounded by the stunning hills of the Scottish Borders. There are walking routes for all abilities, we recommend Janet’s Brae if you want to get in touch with nature, or John Buchan Way which is a longer walk where you will see the very best of Tweeddale, beginning in Peebles.
If you fancy a bit of shopping, Peebles High Street has a multitude of various independent shops and that classic old-worldly feel, definitely worth a visit.
Food and Drink
We bet even reading this has made you think about the food you’d devour after being in the great outdoors. If you’re after a feast, get along to The Grill Room, or for lighter bites, we can highly recommend The Miller Lounge. Our Not The Cocktail Bar is super cosy, perfect for an evening drink. Don’t forget about our 1881 Gin Distillery tours and experiences too (over 18s only) - this is a must for all gin-lovers out there.
Spa & Leisure
You’ll definitely want to spend some time relaxing, you’re on holiday after all. Our swimming pool and spa will certainly do the trick. We’d list all of the treatments available, but we’d get jealous…check out the treatments here.
