Peebles and Tweeddale is a quiet county in inland southern Scotland.
There are different interesting places to visit there, such as the Kailzie Gardens, which has a kiddies corner, fish ponds, a golf course, gift shops and a picturesque restaurant that is surrounded by some wonderful scenery. Another place worth visiting is the Dawyck Botanic Gardens, where you can see Britain’s tallest trees. St. Ronan’s Wells is a historical spa on a hill. It has been the source of inspiration to writers and artists and is ideal for a picnic.
You can also visit Scotland’s oldest house and see an 18th century brewery. Its stairways, cellars and dining room are loaded with history.
Interesting museums to visit in town include the Scottish Mining Museum and the Museum of Flight, while the Cockburn is a treat for lovers of geology. You can also take a trip to a tropical jungle without leaving Scotland by visiting the Edinburgh Butterfly & Insect World.
The wonderful wood on the banks of the River Tweed is home to a beautiful and romantic medieval castle that is host to some incredible weddings and events.
You will find all of this and more in beautiful Peebles.
