Town: St Boswells sits on the south of the River Tweed in the Scottish Borders. There is much evidence of Roman occupation, dating from almost two thousand years ago. Today, St Boswells is known for being on the route of St Cuthbert’s Way, the long distance path from Melrose Abbey to the Holy Island of Lindisfarne. The village boasts a hotel, café, several shops, post office, butcher and a garage. As well as spectacular salmon and brown trout fishing on the River Tweed, the local riverside walks take in attractive scenery.

Charming and restful
Good location for touring the Borders. Well equipped, pleasant and spotlessly clean accommodation. Village amenities (and those of nearby towns) plentiful. Convenient alternative transports available. Would readily recommend area and accommodation to friends and relatives.
