If you prefer a more leisurely ride, try the cross border routes between Newcastleton and Kielder. We offer secure lock up and washing facilities.
Newcastleton Forest is on the doorstep with plenty of walks offering varying degrees of difficulty all with stunning views. If you rise early enough then you might be lucky and see deer or hare. The badger hide at Newcastleton forest is available all year - take a warming flask and your binoculars and settle in for a few hours and watch them at play.
Kielder Forest and Water Park is only 30 minutes drive away - there you can see Osprey which has successfully nested for the first time in years. Kielder also offers boating and trips as well as beautiful walks, an observatory and forest art gallery. Try their new bike trails which now cover nearly 30 miles of track or you can cycle through to Kielder from the trails at Newcastleton.
The village of Newcastleton offers a challenging nine hole golf course - there are never any queues, except maybe on a Sunday when the members play their medal competitions!
Yethouse is a corporate member of the newly created Border Erk & Liddel Angling Club so if oyu fancy fishing for salmon or sea trout during the season on a number of local beats you can. Bring your rods or we can supply - ask when you book.
The Borders is infamous for its savage warring families who fought and foraged for generations across the region. The best way to understand its history and see famous sites is to follow the Reiver Trail.
If you want to research into previous generations of your family then visit the Heart of Hawick and search out your family connections in the state of the art genealogy centre. For a small fee it is amazing how much the experts can uncover – it would be wise to book this in advance of your stay.
There is a lot to see whatever time of year you decide to visit, or if you prefer, you can just shut the door behind you and lock the world out for a few days.
