Situation

Buccleuch Chase is a modern development built in the old grounds of the Duke of Buccleuch Hunt stables and kennels which is on the edge of the small and pretty village of St Boswells. St Boswells is set on the banks of the River Tweed and is framed around a beautiful village green. It offers fantastic local amenities which include The Main Street Trading Company, the Buccleuch Arms Hotel & Restaurant, J.C Douglas Butchers and a local convenience store to name a few. Within a short drive are the popular towns of Melrose, Kelso and Galashiels, which all offer more well-known national amenities and services.

Excellent schooling is also readily available with the village primary school, 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.

St Boswells also offers bus services to Edinburgh and is a short drive from the Borders General Hospital and Tweedbank railway station, which provides a regular train service to Edinburgh. The village is set on the A68 giving easy access north to Edinburgh and south to Newcastle and the north of England.

A forty-minute drive away is the historic town of Berwick-upon-Tweed which offers further amenities and access to a mainline railway station which connects to Edinburgh and Newcastle in around forty-five minutes and London in under four hours.
