历史

It is said that the word Cringletie derives from the name Crelenge, a landowner who lived in the area in the 13th century.

In 1971 Historic Scotland recognized the architectural importance of Cringletie House when they granted it grade B listed status. In later years the Walled Garden and the dovecote were also listed.

Cringletie House first became a hotel after Stanley and Aileen Maguire bought it in 1971. Over the next 27 years, the Maguires developed Cringletie into a popular and highly acclaimed country house hotel. Aileen was the head chef, famous for her Sunday lunches. Their head gardener Nick Cross developed the walled garden into a spectacular vegetable and herbaceous paradise, well known throughout the Borders.

The Maguires retired in 1997 and sold Cringletie. Sadly, the house and grounds were neglected by the new owners, and the hotel's reputation declined until the present owners, Jacob and Johanna van Houdt, bought it in 2003.

From 2003 to the 2019 - Major New Refurbishments

Jacob and Johanna embarked on extensive renovations of the inside of the house, advised by Simpson and Brown Architects in Edinburgh. They also started an ambitious programme to improve the grounds, including replanting woodlands, building woodland walks, and restoring the splendour of the historic walled garden.

The result of their work is the luxurious hotel you see today, combining the charm of the house's Victorian heritage with the comfort and convenience of the 21st century.

Note: To honour the history of the House and its inhabitants, the current tartan in the hall and staircase is a mixture of the Murray and the Sutherland tartans. It was created for us by McKay in Durham. The check is taken from the Murray tartan, the red line made a little softer and the blues and greens are derived from the Sutherland tartan.

Bill and Ann Cross bought the Hotel from the van Houdts in February 2019.
