Where to Stay in East Lothian
Main image: The Open Arms Hotel.
The Crown and Kitchen
Situated in the charming East Lothian village of East Linton, The Crown and Kitchen is the local everyone wants on their doorstep. It offers good food, a great wine list, real ales, cocktails and welcoming professional staff and provides a great experience whether you live nearby or come from further afield. The renovation of the pub has been a labour of love for proprietor Billy Robertson. Formerly the General Manager at Tempus Bar and Restaurant at the George Hotel and a couple of units for the Montpelier’s Group in Edinburgh, Billy knew the place he wanted the Crown to become. So, with the help of his Dad a local builder, Adam Storey at Four-by-Two design….and local craftsmen he created a place, “where I would like to visit and where everyone feels welcome, local or not”
