Two Dan Parks penalties handed Scotland a 6-3 half-time lead and put the hosts on course for just a second opening weekend win in 13 attempts in the tournament.
However for all of Scotland's endeavour, they could not breach the white wall of defenders; an England side with 10 changes from the last Test.
The England pack, led by captain Chris Robshaw, stood toe-to-toe with their more experienced rivals as they ensured the defending champions prevailed. Next up on the road to redemption following the ill-fated World Cup campaign are Italy next weekend.
