Location
Being set just two miles from the vibrant town of Kelso, Maisondieu is a small hamlet of properties conveniently positioned off the A698, and surrounded by open countryside and farmland. The area is exceptionally well connected via the A68, with easy links to Edinburgh and Newcastle, as well as further Border towns and villages. While semi rural, South Cottage is under 30 minutes from the Borders rail link to Edinburgh, and nearby Heiton is a popular village within walking distance, with the exclusive Schloss Roxburgh Golf Hotel & 18-hole course including Spa facilities in plan, with nearby majestic landmarks including the Roxburgh Viaduct spanning the River Teviot, and the glorious Eildon Hills beyond. Kelso, which lies at the meeting point of the Tweed and Teviot rivers, is one of the most attractive and unspoiled towns in the Borders. The area has much to offer those interested in country pursuits with fishing on the Tweed and is an increasingly sought after location within the Borders as a result. With a range of amenities and the charming cobbled high street filled with independent shops and retailers, there are several major superstores to the edge of town, a recently completed High School, medical and banking facilities, making it an excellent choice for the modern buyer.
