Set amidst a backdrop of beautiful hills, Galashiels is a vibrant Border’s town with a good selection of local shops, marked walking routes, restaurants, pubs and cafes as well as a golf course, driving range, swimming pool, cinema and sports centre. No 53 is ideally located about a 15 minute walk from the centre of Galashiels or the Kingsknowes Hotel, which has a bustling restaurant / bar popular with locals and visitors alike, is just a 5 minute walk from the house. A few minute’s drive away is historic Melrose, home of rugby 7s and a delightful place for a wander with some charming local shops and the romantic ruins of the former Melrose Abbey and Abbotsford House, the last home of Sir Walter Scott, is also nearby. Galashiels is an ideal location for exploring the Scottish Borders, being situated close Kelso, Melrose and several major walking and cycling routes. The stunning Eildon Hills are close by as is the mighty River Tweed. Edinburgh is an easy day trip from Galashiels.

Further details for this holiday house rental in Scottish Borders, United Kingdom

Fishing: The River Tweed has a deserved reputation as one of the world's finest salmon rivers and produces more fish caught to the fly than any other river in Britain.

Shooting: We have an arrangement to offer guests shooting for a variety of game at the nearby Ayton Estate, one of the most outstanding arable shoots in the Scottish Borders. The shoot encompasses some 4,000 acres of arable land and 600 acres of woodland with a release plan of 7,000 pheasants and 2,000 partridge. Driven pheasants - Renowned for its high pheasants, the shoot produces 100 to 400 bird days with an average price of £24 per bird depending upon the season and total bag. Duck flighting - The estate offers four flight ponds with plenty of wild duck coming in from the North Sea. An evening’s duck flighting can be arranged for 2 to 10 guns and can be combined with a day’s driven pheasant or rough shooting. Prices vary depending upon the season and number of guns. Rough shooting - A day’s rough shooting will present challenging shots for woodcock as well as pheasant, partridge, duck, snipe, wood pigeon and ground game. A day can be arranged for 2 to 8 guns.

Golf: Northumberland and the Scottish Borders are a golfer's paradise boasting over 100 courses from challenging PGA Championship courses, to picturesque links and parkland courses to suit all standards.

Other Activities: Paint Ball, 4x4 Off-Road Driving, Clay Pigeon Shooting
