Great stay at The White Swan
We had a great stay at The White Swan. The staff were so helpful and pleasant. Nothing was too much trouble. Centrally located in the area made lots of local places, attractions and events available to us as well as all the things in Duns itself. The White Swan was built mid 1700s, with all the quirkiness of such an old building, so be prepared for some oddities such as the undulating floor near the window and en suite in the room we had. Loved our stay there.

The shower (in Room 6) was fantastic! But only 4 power sockets in a family room meant some compromises between bedside lights, TV, kettle, phone charger and laptop.
