Considered by Walter Scott as the most beautiful village in Scotland, Kelso owes its birth to its 12th century abbey, which was very influential in the Middle Ages, before being destroyed by English troops in the 16th century. The central square, The Square, is the heart of the town and is decorated with charming Georgian houses. People come here for the gentle way of life and a great heritage, embodied by Floors Castle, Smailholm Tower or the remains of Roxburgh castle and its golf course. To get to Kelso, you can take the Borders Buses 52 from Edinburgh (2h), Perrymans 67 from Galashiels or Melrose (50 min) and Peter Hogg 20 from Jedburgh (25 min).
