Plentiful road links make Eckford readily accessible to most Border towns, including the A68, five miles away, which links Edinburgh to Newcastle, both of which have international airports. The A1 at Berwick-upon-Tweed is only twenty-seven and a half miles away where a mainline railway serves the whole UK East Coast, with trains to London taking around four hours. The new Borders Railway, lying only seventeen and a half miles away at Tweedbank, has a regular train service running to Edinburgh and taking around 55 minutes. Eckford is also conveniently placed on the Kelso to Hawick bus route. (All times and distances are approximate.) The towns of Kelso and Jedburgh are within a short distance of the cottage; both traditional Abbey towns with Kelso also renowned for its iconic cobbled square and location on the banks of the River Tweed. Both towns offers a great range of independent shops and eateries with Kelso also benefitting from a sizeable Sainsbury’s supermarket.
