About This Item
Blackwood, 1983. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 5.5" X 8.75. H/B 209 pages, condition is very good, the spine of the DJ is sun faded. country to the south of Scotland's capital is one of the most attractive to visitors to the North. Few parts of the British Isles can boast of such a high concentration of attractions - beautiful 800 year old abbeys, historic houses, and 'the Scott Country' immortalised by Sir Walter Scott of Abbotsford and James Hogg the Ettrick Shepherd. The Borders between the Cheviots and Edinburgh contains the Tweed Valley, the home of some of the most famous names in tweeds and knitwear. There is a fine network of uncrowded roads and excellent accommodation making the area an ideal starting point for a visit to Scotland. Dawn MacLeod, who lives in the region and knows it well, provides a very readable and informative account for the tourist and armchair traveller alike. Beginning with an account of Berwick-Upon-Tweed, the author goes on to discuss the abbeys, their towns, and the other principal centres. Open houses and grounds, castles and towers, and the countryside and villages are all discussed. Over thirty photographs contribute to a portrait which will encourage newcomers to the Borders to seek out and savour the attractions of the area for themselves.
