Melrose, Scottish Borders

Nestling under the legendary Eildon Hills, and on the banks of the mighty Tweed, Melrose, with its ruined abbey, is one of the most attractive of the Border towns, to which visitors flock every year, attracted by its excellent facilities and the beauty and peace of the surrounding countryside.
Fishing in the Tweed, walking on the Southern Upland and St Cuthbert's Ways, visiting many of the nearby stately homes, keeps and castles, watching rugby at the birthplace of the Sevens game, riding, canoeing, are all popular activities here. It is small wonder that once discovered, it is a place to which folk return year after year.
