Location

Separated by the Bowmont River, Kirk Yetholm and its nearby sister village of Town Yetholm are both highly sought after and quite charming villages. Town Yetholm offers local amenities which include a primary school, village shop, butchers and popular hotel. Situated at the end of the Pennine Way both villages sit on the edge of the stunning Cheviot Hills and are ideally placed for exploring the beautiful Scottish Borders. The area abounds with activities for those with an interest in country pursuits, for example some of the best salmon and trout fishing is available on the Rivers Tweed and Teviot, and the nearby town of Kelso provides a good range of shopping and leisure facilities, including an Ice Rink, Race Course (one of only 3 in Scotland) and fantastic all year-round calendar of events at the Border Union Showground.
