  • "This accommodation was 1 of 3 we looked at for Kelso and it certainly lived up to its description and pictures."

    From the minute we stepped in the door we were very impressed with the quality and the location and pleased to see it had a silver award from Sykes in 2023. We travelled around the borders region each day and enjoyed relaxing each evening. Its central and near a great butchers with restaurant, bars, takeaway and shops. Everything is great and We'd not hesitate to recommend.

  • "We had a very pleasant stay at 2 Abbey Row."

    The owner has an immaculate property and has thought of everything as it is very well furnished and equipped. The property was booked through Sykes and was exactly as described. It is a very cosy apartment, just off the main square in Kelso, so close to all amenities. I found absolutely no problems parking in the town and used the large car park less than a 2 minute walk from the property, although there are also spaces available directly outside on the street. Karen, the owner, is very friendly and kept in touch with me through the booking process and our stay to ensure everything was to our satisfaction. This was done in a very non-intrusive way, which made us feel very welcome in her property - Thanks for a wonderful break!

  • "This is a lovely apartment with lots of nearby shops, coffee shops and nice walks."

    The owner Karen left us a lovely welcome basket which was so thoughtful and really appreciated. Karen also took the time to contact us prior to our stay and checked in again after our arrival to ensure everything was ok and advised to let her know if we needed anything. Really spacious apartment with everything we needed. We really enjoyed our stay & would definitely recommend it.

    This is one of the nicest places we've ever stayed in, stylish and modern decor throughout, beautiful furnishings and very comfy beds. Kitchen and bathrooms excellent and had everything you need for a comfortable stay, the additional laundry room was an additional bonus! The views from the property are stunning, you couldn't get any closer to the Abbey, what a bonus! If you are looking for a base in Kelso to explore the surrounding area, then this apartment is a little luxury find, exceptional property! Karen the owner has created a beautiful home for a memorable stay and we will definitely be booking again. Shirley McGeorge

  • "We had a lovely stay at 2 Abbey Row."

    The apartment was warm, comfortable and beautiful. We arrived to a lovely welcome basket and a tidy, clean accommodation. The owner, Karen, contacted me before our stay to ensure we had all relevant and useful information. She also contacted me on the arrival day and the day of departure to ensure we were happy with everything. Kelso, itself, is a beautiful town with cobbled streets and is within walking distance of the local castle, Floors Castle. There are many places to eat in or takeaway - the Queens Head pub has gorgeous food, as do the local Chinese takeaway Kwan’s and Ozkans Grill, oh, do try the local Indian Sultan’s of Kelso. Kelso is within an hour of Edinburgh and Lindisfarne too!

  • "Very nice spacious flat."

    All rooms a very good size. It is very well maintained and very warm. Kelso is a pretty town and well located for exploring the Scottish borders. The town is characterised by being paved in cobbles, which is attractive. It does though increase traffic noise for the two bedrooms on the main street side. Not a massive issue, but because the rest of the town is generally quiet it is noticeable. There is parking to the rear, but it is on a very narrow road. My car got scraped by someone driving by so I learnt the hard way that you should really park in the car park or by the school. That said there are a lot of benefits to staying in the centre of town in terms of being able to walk out to bars restaurants and walk by the river, so still a very good location.

    Thank you so much for your kind feedback, delighted you enjoyed your stay. Sorry to hear about your car, we have never had that problem before but will make other guests aware. We have triple glazing and shutters for the front bedrooms which dulls the noise but unfortunately being in a town brings a little traffic noise, I hope it did't detract from your stay.

    Beautiful property in an excellent position for exploring Kelso and The Borders. The apartment is amazing. Lots of beautiful touches and soft furnishings to make your stay a luxurious one. The lovely owner is on hand if you need anything…which is always reassuring. Brilliant welcome pack. Everything about the property is well done from a place to dump muddy boots, beautiful quality bed linen, towels aplenty, cushions everywhere and the best stocked kitchen we have experienced in a holiday rental. I particularly liked the abundance of lamps and lighting options, so thoughtful. It really is a property full of home comforts and luxury, the owner has a real flair for holiday rentals and has poured their heart and soul into this beautiful property. There was a farmers market in the square while we were there, we travelled to the home of Walter Scott, Abbotsford, in 30 mins and to Bamburgh Castle, 1 hour, both of which I would highly recommend. If you would like to explore Kelso and the beautiful Borders, we would highly recommend a stay at this beautiful property.

Tucked away in the historic town of Kelso, Scottish Borders, is this fantastic three-bedroom, first-floor apartment, 2 Abbey Row.

Boasting a central location opposite the magnificent Kelso Abbey and a stylish interior adorned with contemporary furnishings, 2 Abbey Row is a superb dwelling for a group or family of six who are seeking a truly unique home-from-home for their getaway to Scotland.

Be welcomed into the spacious open-plan living area, where you can look forward to conjuring up delicious feasts for your loved ones in the well-equipped kitchen, ready to enjoy at the dining table for six.

After a hearty meal, why not savour the last of the day’s sunshine out on the shared front courtyard where you can make plans for the days ahead with the stunning backdrop of Kelso Abbey.

As the evening grows darker, retreat to the plush seating in the sitting room, where you can watch your favourite film on the Smart TV in the warming glow of the electric fire.

Within the apartment you will also find a handy utility space housing a washer/dryer.

Wash away the day with an indulgent soak in the bath or refresh with a shower, before choosing from three well-appointed bedrooms to catch your rest in, two king-size, one of which looks out towards the abbey, and a twin, both with plenty of storage for your belongings.

Explore the idyllic town, well-known for its cobbled streets and captivating Georgian buildings, where you can wander along the River Tweed to find a wonderful selection of pubs, restaurants and cafes, including the Queens Head which is right on your doorstep!

About the location

KELSO

Jedburgh 14 miles; Wooler 16 miles.

Kelso is a lovely tranquil Borders town at the meeting point of the Tweed and Teviot rivers, with a cobbled town square and streets, and an array of stunning Georgian buildings, and a wealth of gorgeous countryside around it. Take time out to visit Floors Castle, a very prominent Stately Home with restaurants and gardens, designed by William Adam. Also close by are Mellerstain House, Kelso Abbey and the Kelso races. Mellerstain House is a stunning example of Georgian architecture at its finest. Designed by the architect William Adam and his son Robert in 1725, it is the residence of the 13th Earl of Haddington. The house is located within 80 acres of luscious rolling parkland and is in walking distance of Smailholm Tower, the ancestral home of Sir Walter Scott. Great fishing can be enjoyed on the Teviot, Tweed and Jed rivers and there are many excellent golf courses to choose from. Watch the spectacular and historic Common Ridings, held at Kelso, Hawick, Selkirk, Langholm, Lauder and others, with long histories. The Borders also offer some superb walking and cycling, be it on the coast, over the breathtaking hillsides or amongst the enchanting Border forests. The towns of Coldstream, Jedburgh, Kirk Yetholm and Wooler are just a short drive away and are a joy to explore at leisure.
