Your Winter Adventure starts here

From late autumn to early spring, when the ground is crisp underfoot and your breath travels in wisps against a cobalt sky, the towns and landscape conjure up a very different pastoral image but one which is completely irresistible, and only an hour from the Central Belt and the North of England. Winter is a time for a different kind of adventure. The hills, capped with a fresh dusting of snow, are more inviting than ever. The same can be said for our welcome. An incredible range of cosy and idyllic hotels, inns and retreats make the South the go-to place when winter takes hold.

Culture, History and Heritage starts here

An astonishing amount of Scotland’s rich cultural heritage can be found in the historic towns, rolling countryside and heather-clad hills of Midlothian and the Scottish Borders. Getting around is so easy, you’ll quickly get a feel for the area and want to see more. And there’s an almost endless source of interesting and unusual places waiting for you to discover – from famous houses and fairy tale castles, to medieval churches and award-winning museums.

Food and Drink starts here

It’s easy to get taste for this unique area of Scotland. The fantastic farm shops and foodhalls, cafes, award-winning restaurants, country inns, quaint pubs and stylish bars provide a brilliant showcase for the amazing food and drink produced in Midlothian and the Scottish Borders. From freshly caught fish, to sustainably produced meat and game, and fresh local fruit and veg, to deliciously different craft beer and artisan gin, your culinary journey through the area’s lush, rolling hills, untamed rivers and spectacular coastline starts here. It’s even fair to say that tasting the whole of Scotland starts here…
