our beautiful unspoilt countryside and individual towns. Leave the congestion and
overpricing behind and discover for yourself what a fantastic place the Borders is
to live, work and play. Home to world class activities and attractions, it’s no
wonder that the area is so popular with visitors who come here to enjoy mountain
biking at Glentress, salmon fishing on the Tweed, walking in our hills and forests
or diving off the Berwickshire coast. The area is also known for its spectacular
Common Ridings, when whole communities come together to celebrate each
town’s individual heritage and to cheer on hundreds of horses and riders every
summer. The Borders is also a heartland of rugby in Scotland, with the names of
our local towns being synonymous with the game and of course Melrose being the
original home of rugby sevens. From our historic towns to rural villages, wherever
you go you will be struck by the warmth of the welcome in our communities and
the real pride people have in living in this wonderful part of the world. With good
transport links, an excellent education system and stunning countryside, a move
to the Scottish Borders really could be the best move of your life.
