The Selkirk Arms dining room - a great place to relax and enjoy good food after a day of photography

Friendly service, two public bars and a comfortable restaurant serving the best food in town – most of Philip’s students dine here no matter where they stay, and the food is well recommended.

THE SELKIRK GRACEScottish poet Robert Burns
It is said that Scotland’s most famous son, the poet Robert Burns, wrote The Selkirk Grace at the Selkirk Arms Hotel in 1793. It has been recited before Scottish banquests and dinners ever since:

Some hae meat and canna eat,
and some wad eat that want it,
but we hae meat and we can eat,
and sae the Lord be thankit.


Another claim to fame by The Selkirk Arms Hotels – scenes from the original movie of ‘The Thirty-nine Steps’ were filmed here.
