BUILDING FOR THE BORDERS SINCE 1937

KelsoSir Walter Scott described Kelso as the “mostbeautiful if not the most romantic village inScotland”, which as an endorsement for a lifestylelocation is about as good as it gets.

Lying in a fertile valley between the LammermuirHills and the Cheviots, only a few miles from theEnglish border, modern day Kelso has grown andprospered without losing any of the character andintrigue imbued by the passing centuries. Streetnames like Mill Wynd, Horsemarket, and OvenWynd, allude to trades practised in the past, whilethe historic hub of the town around the 18th

century market square is now an attractiveconservation area.

Landmarks from Sir Walter Scott’s era are littlechanged and include Kelso bridge - the first in theworld to have elliptical arches and the model forLondon’s Waterloo Bridge - and the junction poolwhere the rivers Tweed and Teviot meet, the 12th

century Abbey, and to the north of the town,architect WilliamAdam’s 18th century masterpieceFloors Castle, Scotland’s largest inhabited houseand the ancestral home of the Duke of Roxburghe.

This is rugby country, but Kelso has a wide varietyof leisure opportunities for all ages, from beautifulparks and riverside walkways, to athletics, badminton,cricket, tennis, cycling, ice-skating, hockey, angling,football, swimming and golf. Unique among Bordertowns, Kelso has an ice rink and an equestrianracecourse. In addition, there are primary andsecondary schools, shops, and clubs for everythingfrom gliding and curling to ar t and bridge.
