LOCATION
Gattonside is one of the most charming and well- regarded villages in the Borders:; beautifully kept with a friendly community of around 400 residents, the village is home to two well- established restaurants and a village hall. Gattonside Suspension Bridge links it to the ever popular Melrose – voted the best town to live in Scotland in 2018! A regular bus service runs through the village with connections to the recently opened Borders Railway at Tweedbank and Galashiels. Local schooling is available at Melrose, with the village falling into the catchment for Earlston High School or private schooling at St Mary’s Melrose. Just five minutes from the local hospital at Borders General and local attractions including Abbotsford House, Trimontium, hill walking on the Eildons and along the River Tweed, and with plenty of sporting opportunities from golf to rugby including the world famous Melrose Sevens, it’s a quintessential Borders location not to be missed.
