The Bothy

Kelso, Southern Scotland

The Bothy
The Bothy is a small, snug cottage near Kelso in Southern Scotland, sleeping two and well suited to a couple after a peaceful break in the Scottish Borders.

The area has plenty of history to explore, with the Mary Queen Of Scots' Visitors Centre and Jedburgh Castle both worth a visit, while Jacksons at Jedburgh offers a change of pace a little further afield. Tweedbank station is the nearest for those travelling by train, making The Bothy a workable base even without a car.
