The Scottish Borders - a breath of fresh air!

Snuggled into the south-east corner of Scotland, so many people whizz through on their way to the Highlands! So we are lucky to be surrounded by beautiful country which is quiet and unspoilt!

Stretching from the dramatic sandstone cliffs, secluded coves and sandy beaches of the Berwickshire coast, across open farming country, to the breezy hilltops inland! From south of Edinburgh to the border, Northumberland is only a step away!

For every season, every energy level, every pace, the Borders has space - to ride, walk, cycle or drive along quiet country roads and paths which meander through the rolling border hills and valleys.

There's room to fish wonderful stretches of river, loch and the sea! Golf in stunning settings on championship or local club courses. Watch birdlife, wildlife, horse racing or rugby!

Enjoy the character and charm of the Border towns and villages, with local shops and places to eat. Supporting Border food producers, many proud winners of national food awards.

The pride and passion of Borderers is well known! Steeped in history, traditions are kept very much alive with local events and festivals. The rich choice of historic abbeys, keeps, castles and great houses, are second to non!

You’ll also be spoiled for choice with inspirational pieces from the “craftsmen” of today, so you can take home more than just memories! The Crossing Borders artist network is a great source of information for high quality work, galleries and events.

We hope we'll be able to welcome to share our Border delights - there are so many!
