Melrose is the 'jewel in the crown' of the Scottish Borders, with beautiful surrounding hills (Eildons) and lovely Borders towns nearby like Galashiels and Kelso. Borders folk are also very friendly and helpful. Sir Walter Scott's House at Abbotsford is wonderful and it's worth seeing the William Wallace Statue near Dryburgh.

Melrose is a nice little town with shops, cafés, bars and restaurnts, an interesting museum and a lovely historic site: the ruins of a mediaeval abbey. The scenery is picturesque with the river Tweed running through the town. As I love the outdoors, it was important for me to have a lot of hiking routes starting from the town. There are buses running from there, too, to all directions, so important places, the capital or even the sea are within easy reach.
I visited Dryburgh Abbey on foot and Kelso and Jedburgh by bus. A visit to Abbotsford, the house of Sir Walter Scott was absolutely intriguing. The rolling hills of the Borders are so beautiful that I would go back this instant if I could.

Trimontium Museum in Melrose market place is absolutely first class - about a huge Roman fort a couple of miles outside Melrose. Melrose Abbey was disappointing as most of it is fenced off whilst they carry out building inspections, and it didn't look like this would change any time soon. Dryburgh Abbey about 5 miles away is better. Abbotsford well worth a visit. We also took the train from Tweedbank to Edinburgh for the day which worked very well. Also visited the Great Scottish Tapestry in Galashiels which is an absolute must. Can recommend Provender in Melrose for dinner. Town centre has a range of independent shops and cafes.

Quaint small town.
Quaint small town. The Roman Museum is very good as is the visit to the Abbey, although, unlike last time you could not go into the abbey. I was there to begin the St. Cuthbert Trail walk to Lindisfarne. Sir Walter Scott's nearby home is worth a visit.

We love Melrose and visit often.
We love Melrose and visit often. We love browsing the small shops on the high street and they have a brilliant butcher in Martin Baird. A walk round the town is a delight, past the abbey, Harmony Garden and across the chain bridge to Gattonside - or up the Eildon's if you are feeling energetic. We also love Sir Walter Scott's home, Abbotsford which is a short car journey and the Tapestry of Scotland exhibition in Galashiels.
Getting to Melrose is relatively easy from Edinburgh Waverley station on the Borders light railway to Tweedbank, then a short taxi ride.

Melrose is a lovely little town.
Melrose is a lovely little town. Of course the Abbey is a wonderful attraction but there is also the Trimontium Museum and several lovely gardens and walks to explore. It's perfectly situated as a great base to visit other nearby attractions. There was a free minibus to Abbotsford available on certain days - what a bonus! There's also lots of little craft shops and some excellent cafes and restaurants.
This was an amazing place to stay. We walked in and thought WOW, it was a fantastic way to end our 3month long holiday in Scotland. Also in such a small street to have a carparking space was great. We felt like we were at home but better. We also spoke to the neighbour who told us of the history of the wee cottage. Explains why there is a post box at the fence. Was also nice that it has a small outdoor seating area. Just gorgeous.
One of the very best accommodations we have ever stayed in over 35 years of holidays. Beautiful location above Melrose. Extensive garden and own sitting area in it. Amazingly well decorated house - flowers, paintings, candles. Attention to detail worthy of a 5 star hotel. Owners are most friendly and considerate. Breakfast was exceptionally good.
To be honest everything. Just 2 minutes walk from the centre of Melrose, 5 minutes walk to the river Tweed. To say the cottage has character would be a gross understatement, the name says it all. If it came up for sale I would buy it in a heartbeat. If you are looking for a romantic break to rekindle or start a relationship this is the place.
No problem parking. Keys were readily accessible. Property has been refurbished and standards are high. Slept well and not troubled by road noise etc. Comfortable lounge, well appointed kitchen and the whole house was nice and warm. Very clean too. Communications with the owner before our holiday were excellent.
Breakfasts were included as part of room charge. There was an excellent selection of fruit, cereal, juice, coffee, and fully cooked breakfasts--all very good! We also had an evening meal in the hotel dining room, and it was excellent. The staff were exceptionally helpful and courteous.
The apartment has lovely features and real character. It is in a great location with off street parking and a secure garage for bikes.
The kitchen was really well equipped.
The living room was super comfy and nice to relax in at the end of the day
For the price it was excellent
This is an old hotel, situated in the heart of Melrose. The staff are very friendly. It is very old fashioned, the furnishings are quite basic. However the room was very clean, the bed was comfortable with a new mattress, the bathroom though basic was very clean.
It’s central in Melrose. Near all shops and restaurants.
Only stayed one night, room was lovely, view was of the car park not a problem as only there one night. Comfy bed, nice en-suite, smart tv with BB IPLAYER
Netflix etc. Would definitely recommend this B&an.
Good breakfast and very nice staff. The location is good as it is in the center of Melrose close to shops and restaurants. The local bus service bus stop is a few yards away. Melrose Abbey is five minutes walk.
The breakfast was really nice , the hotel is very dog friendly with a huge area for you dog to get a run around, the hotel room was very large with a very comfortable bed , the toilet and shower was very clean
Very beautiful and comfortable room and great dinner. Staff exceptionally friendly and attentive.
Medieval Abbey (ruins) nearby, Hotel in a parklike garden on the pittoresque banks of the river Tweed.
It was clean, well furnished and had everything we could need. Perfect for the Borders Book Festival- we left the car in it's parking place at the property- only a 20 minute walk into Melrose.
Nice hotel in de centre of Melrose. We had the Garden Suite: a bedroom and sitting room at the back, with a small courtyard. The room was big and quiet. Good breakfast and dinner.
