Tell us about Melrose, Scottish Borders Named among The Sunday Times’ Best Places to Live in Scotland for 2026, Melrose is an attractive country town in the Tweed Valley, set beneath the distinctive three peaks of the Eildon Hills. Its rich heritage is epitomised by the magnificent ruins of Melrose Abbey, where the heart of Robert the Bruce is said to lie, while beautiful gardens cared for by the National Trust for Scotland provide another peaceful attraction. The bustling high street is home to an appealing mix of independent shops, alongside everyday amenities including small supermarkets, a deli, greengrocer, bakeries, butcher, pharmacy, and public library. A varied choice of restaurants, takeaways, cafés, and traditional pubs further adds to the town’s appeal. Melrose has a strong sense of community and hosts a lively programme of annual events, including the Borders Book Festival, the Pipe Band Championships, and the internationally renowned Melrose Sevens. As the birthplace of Rugby Sevens, the town has a proud sporting heritage, with rugby union particularly popular, while local golf and cricket clubs are also available. The surrounding countryside offers outstanding opportunities for walking, hill running, fishing on the River Tweed, and other outdoor pursuits, with an annual hill race taking place locally. Education is provided through independent schooling and state nursery and primary provision, with secondary schooling available in Earlston and further education at Borders College in Galashiels, both around a 10-minute drive away. Regular bus services connect the town with the wider area, while Edinburgh can be reached in approximately one hour by car or by train from nearby Tweedbank.
