The village lies on the banks of the River Tweed and is framed around a pretty village green. St Boswells is a thriving village with a wholesome community offering a wide range of events and things to do, from fishing on the Tweed to Historical attractions. Although many of the border towns offer national conveniences like Sainsbury’s, M&S and Morrison’s supermarkets there are some truly fantastic local suppliers on the doorstep that would love your support including a local butcher, the renowned Buccleuch Arms Hotel & Restaurant and the award-winning Main Street Trading Company bookshop and café. The village is also just off the A68 giving easy access north to Edinburgh and south to Newcastle and has excellent bus services throughout the Borders and up into Edinburgh.

Excellent schooling is readily available with the village primary school a short walk across the green, and Earlston High School nearby, whilst private schooling is available at St Mary’s in Melrose and Longridge Towers near Berwick-upon-Tweed and in Edinburgh beyond.
