Area - Selkirk, Scottish Borders
Nestled in the picturesque Scottish Borders on the Ettrick Water, the historic royal burgh of Selkirk promises a stunning rural escape within an hour’s drive of Edinburgh. Like its neighbouring towns of Tweedbank and Galashiels, Selkirk looks back on a proud heritage in the textile and woollen industry, as well as important links to William Wallace and the Battle of Flodden. Today the charming town centre is lined with independent shops and high-street retailers, including convenience stores, pharmacies, and a post office. A haven for outdoor and country sports enthusiasts, Selkirk is home to several stables and equestrian centres, while the Ettrick and Yarrow Valleys boast some of the best and varied fishing in Scotland, if not the UK. Indoor sport and fitness facilities are available at Selkirk Leisure Centre, while Selkirk Golf Course also offers a relaxed round of golf enveloped by spectacular scenery. There is also no shortage of cultural attractions in and around Selkirk, including Halliwell’s House Museum and Sir Walter Scott’s Courtroom. Selkirk is served by local schools at primary and secondary level, as well as excellent nurseries and private childcare options. In addition to major road links, residents benefit from convenient public bus routes and rail services from neighbouring Galashiels and Tweedbank stations.
