| The Scottish Borders, south of the countries capital city,
Edinburgh, is an area of tranquil villages, bustling textile towns and varied
scenery, including a wild coastline running northwards from the
border by Berwick- upon Tweed. Visitors can enjoy a wide range of attractions,
including magnificent historic houses, great Border abbeys, telling their tale
of Border feuds with England, and working woollen mills and craft workshops.
The adventures of the old time reivers (Border raiders) are still recounted in
song and ballad today. Drumlanrig's Tower in Hawick, largest of the Scottish
Borders towns, portrays life in former days, while the town of Selkirk claims
that its Common Riding is the largest mounted gathering anywhere in Europe. |

Melrose also has other features to detain you,
including an Abbey and a Teddy Bear museum. This is
typical of the area, plenty
of interest in towns and countryside, with walking,
cycling, riding and golf -
including The Roxburghe, the first championship golf
course in the Scottish Borders. Another special characteristic is the choice
of grand homes and castles to visit. Just north of the
Border, Paxton House is a handsome mansion with a picture gallery which is part
of the National Galleries of Scotland. Floors Castle, on the edge of Kelso, is
said to be the largest inhabited home in Scotland. Traquair House near
Innerleithen is the oldest continually inhabited house in Scotland. Many of these
properties have fine gardens, another Scottish Borders characteristic.

From self catering accomodation in
Galashiels cottages to rent near Peebles.
