Located in the heart of this beautiful Borders town the G & A Hotel offers a variety of accommodation for the family visitors. Comfortable surroundings make your stay an enjoyable one while you visit many of the attractions in Melrose itself or the surrounding area. Melrose is in the centre of the region offering easy access to Galashiels, Kelso, Jedburgh and Hawick and is only 40 miles from the centre of Edinburgh, making the historic town an ideal base for any visit to Scotland

Within a short walk are Melrose Abbey, home to the heart of Robert the Bruce, and the Trimontium Exhibition, giving an insight into the Romans in Scotland, Melrose is an ideal base for those with an interest in Scottish history. Local landmarks include the 22 ft tall sandstone statue of William Wallace, and Abbostford, the home of Sir Walter Scott

Those wishing a walking holiday will find us at the start of the St Cuthberts way, a 62 mile cross border walking route as well as shorter walks through the Eildon hills or for the more experienced walker and ideal stopping off point on the Southern Upland Way. Cyclists will find many good cycling routes close by including the 4 Abbeys Cycle Route and we are still within a short drive of more specialised cycling courses such as Glentress Forest which boasts some spectacular mountain biking terrain

Above the banks of the River Tweed the town is obviously a hit with fishermen. Some of the best salmon and trout fishing in Scotland is just a short scenic walk away. Permits available locally as well as all the requirements for the enthusiastic fly fisher

Those looking for a slower pace will find Harmony Gardens and Priorwood Gardens offering a large variety of flora and fauna to idle away those tranquil summer days

Melrose is famously connected with the oldest rugby Sevens tournament in the world which are held annually in the spring. The G * A is within 100 yards of the famous Greenyards rugby ground. Golf and fishing packages available
