Just excellent. I literally have never felt so cared for and well taken care of as I have staying at Kultur Gut Hasselburg. Brigitte and her crew made me feel like a princess, very special. I would go back in a heartbeat and definitely recommend it to anyone who likes beautiful, comfortable, stylish, cultural, upbeat, and charming get-a-ways.

Toller Hof, mit Ferienwohnungen, Musikveranstaltungen in der größten Reetdachscheune Europas...oder der ganzen Welt? Wie mir berichtet wurde ist es die größte musikalisch genutzte Reetdachscheune der Welt. Im Herrenhaus wohnt die weltberühmte Produzentin von Hörspielen Heikedine Körting

Dryburgh Abbey

Dryburgh Abbey on the banks of the River Tweed in the Scottish Borders was founded in 1150 in an agreement between Hugh de Morville, Constable of Scotland, and the Premonstratensian canons regular from Alnwick Abbey in Northumberland. The arrival of the canons along with their first abbot, Roger, took place in 1152.

It was burned by English troops in 1322, after which it was restored only to be again burned by Richard II in 1385, but it flourished in the fifteenth century. It was finally destroyed in 1544, briefly surviving until the Scottish Reformation, when it was given to the Earl of Mar by James VI of Scotland. It is now a designated scheduled monument and the surrounding landscape is included in the Inventory of Gardens and Designed Landscapes in Scotland.

David Erskine, 11th Earl of Buchan bought the land in 1786. Sir Walter Scott and Douglas Haig are buried in its grounds.
