Bemersyde House, Category A listed manor house in Scottish Borders, United Kingdom.
Bemersyde House is a manor with a 16th-century tower at its core and refined additions built around it in the Scottish Borders. The building occupies extensive grounds that look out toward the Eildon Hills and the River Tweed valley.
The property was acquired by the British Government in 1921 and given to Field-Marshal Earl Haig, who led British forces during World War I. This gift honored his military service with a historic home and estate.
The house carries the name of a family that has maintained a long connection to this place, and their story is woven through the rooms and gardens you walk through. Visitors can feel this continuity as they move through the spaces filled with generations of memories.
The house is available for private group stays with multiple bedrooms and living spaces spread across several floors. The location offers easy access to outdoor activities in the surrounding river valleys and hills.
An old Scottish saying has connected the family to this place for centuries, speaking of their lasting presence no matter what time brings. This poetic tie makes the location more than just a house to those who visit.
