Lovely Townhouse with own garden overlooking the Square sleeps 2-5+ comfortably | House in Melrose
3 Bedroom House in Melrose
25 Market Square is located in the heart of Melrose overlooking the historic town only minutes away from a wealth of restaurants, cafes and bar food with no driving home! There are many local tourist attractions on your doorstep - Melrose Abbey, Harmony House that hosts the Borders Book Festival, the Greenyards that holds the annual Rugby Sevens and only 2 miles away Abbotsford House with award winning visitor centre, the former home of Sir Walter Scott. It is worth viewing the Trimontium exhibition opposite your front door. The Great Scottish Tapestry now has its permanent home in Galashiels and is also well worth a visit. . Behind the house, there is a patio with table seating for 6 in a pretty garden leading down to a small wood. Just beyond that there is a free (approx. 20 spaces) car park that is only a few minutes walk back to your front door. 25 Market Square provides a wonderful central position from which to enjoy walking, golfing, fishing, riding, exploring local history or simply watching the world go by in this loveliest of Border towns. When you look out of the four, large picture windows of the reception rooms on the first floor, you can relax watching the comings and goings in the Square below. There, the historic Market Cross stands proud and wonderful array of individual shops that including a green grocer, a fishmonger, butchers, as well as a couple of small supermarkets are so easy to pop down to. You will have a grandstand view of the town’s many events, from festivals to pipe band competitions or you might simply choose to relax in comfort in the stylish sitting room or even take refreshments down to the garden.
This delightful property has a spacious kitchen/diner with a gas box fire for colder months as well as a separate sitting room with 2 sofas, a desk and a 2nd gas box fire. The house is also kept warm with gas central heating throughout. Note that both reception rooms can be bathed in sun well into the evening. The small bedroom on this first floor has its own ensuite. The two main double bedrooms are on the floor above and have the house bathroom between them. You can wake up in these bright, east facing rooms where the morning sunshine can be flooding in. From the windows there are lovely views of your garden, Nut-wood, Melrose Abbey (floodlit at night) Priorswood Gardens and one of the Eildon hills, that will transport you from the hustle and bustle of life in the Market Square. There is a third toilet on the ground floor in the inner hallway and the laundry area that leads through to the garden has a washing machine, tumble drier and butler sink and is a useful place to leave muddy boots and golf clubs etc.
One of our favourite morning walks is past the abbey, down to the river Tweed and across the Chain Bridge, where paths lead right or left along the river banks. If you continue straight on you will arrive in the village of Gattonside. Return back across the bridge and right to the Weir Hill, past the famous Melrose rugby ground where the Eildon hills form a magnificent backcloth. Children enjoy stopping at the Gibson park to play on the swings before wandering back through the town and returning home at the top of the High Street.
Different paths lead to the foot of the Eildons and the view of the Border countryside from the top is well worth the climb.
An hour’s journey by train leaving frequently from Tweedbank (3 miles away) transports you to the heart of Edinburgh where you can enjoy a full day visiting the sights without the hassle of having to park in the city.
There are also a variety of
outdoor pursuits in the area that include fishing on the River Tweed, fieldsports, horse riding, golf, lawn bowling, mountain biking, and a selection of walks including the Southern Upland Way, St. Cuthbert’s Way and The Borders Abbeys Way. Several festivals which include the Melrose 7’s Rugby Tournament,
the Borders Book Festival and the Melrose Festival, complete with its ride-out attract visitors, from far and wide. Thank you to our many guests who have left lovely reviews on-line and helpful ideas in our visitors book with suggestions of favourite places to visit and eat out. Hopefully you, too, will enjoy a wonderful visit to the beautiful Scottish Borders, Melrose and our Townhouse overlooking the Market Square.
