Scottish Borders · Country-estate spa and championship golf · Outdoor wellness
SCHLOSS Roxburghe is a contemporary Spa & Golf retreat arranged around a historic Scottish Borders estate. Its combination of an extensive spa, heated outdoor infinity pool, championship course and flexible hotel or cottage accommodation makes it particularly persuasive for longer mixed-interest stays.
Why visit SCHLOSS Spa?
The spa extends across more than 1,100 square metres, including a 600-square-metre relaxation area with an indoor fireplace and floor-to-ceiling garden views. The outdoor thermal experience includes a heated infinity pool, hot tub, plunge pool, aroma sauna and Finnish dry sauna.
For golfers, the Dave Thomas-designed Roxburghe course is not an incidental amenity. It is a respected inland championship layout shaped through mature woodland and natural contours, with the River Teviot and Roxburgh Viaduct framing its signature par five.
Best for
- Scottish Borders Spa & Golf breaks
- Couples and groups balancing golf with spa time
- Outdoor pools and countryside recovery
- Country sports and active wellness
- Private stays in self-catering cottages
Golf and movement
The championship course is designed to provide a meaningful test while remaining playable for different standards. Eight covered Toptracer bays, a swing studio, short-game area and PGA tuition support golfers who want practice or coaching. The estate’s wider outdoor activities make this useful for groups whose interests extend beyond golf.
The spa experience
The spa is better suited to restorative country-estate wellness than intensive clinical programming. Build in time for the outdoor thermal facilities and unhurried relaxation rather than treating the spa as a short appointment immediately after golf. Treatments are reserved for guests aged 16 and over.
