The Caddy Mann, Jedburgh

An award-winning, family-run restaurant in the Scottish Borders countryside, known for game and local produce such as venison, lamb and beef, with a menu that changes with what local suppliers bring in. It has won Best Restaurant at the Eat Game Awards and has been recognised in VisitScotland's awards for many years. Diners rave about the slow-cooked lamb, the fish and the sticky toffee pudding with homemade ice cream.

It's open only a few days a week (closed Mondays and Tuesdays) and is usually busy, so book ahead. It makes a great stop if you're visiting Jedburgh Abbey or touring the Borders abbeys.
