Sweeping moors, gentle hills, peaceful valleys and extensive plains, not to mention the rugged Berwickshire coastline; the contrasting landscapes of the Scottish Borders happily sit side by side. Wherever your interests lie, a Scottish Borders cottage holiday will more than meet your expectations.

Why the Scottish Borders?

As you might expect, this is a fantastic place for enjoying the great outdoors. For walkers, over 1500 miles of paths and trails thread through the countryside. Cycling is a great way to explore the Borders, with lots of suitable off-road trails for beginners and adrenaline-pumping downhill tracks for the avid mountain biker.

Places to visit near the Scottish Borders

Those keen to delve into the mysterious past will find a dramatic and often turbulent history has left a trail of castles, abbeys, mansions, and ruins scattered across the region. More mellow pursuits include freshwater and sea fishing from towns and villages including St Abbs, as well as golf. Top class 18-hole courses include Eyemouth, whose fairways unfurl to the sea and Cardrona, affectionately known as the 'Gleneagles of the south'.

Areas worth a mention include in and around the area include Ayrshire, Edinburgh, Isle of Whithorn and the hills of Moorfoot and Lammermuir - the latter an incredible sight come autumn when displays of heather flush deep purple. No matter how you spend your day, your self-catering Scottish Borders accommodation will be waiting for you.
