Woodlands enjoys a superb central, yet private, location within this sought after Borders village. The house lies within the St Boswells conservation area in grounds historically used as an orchard contained by a high wall.
St Boswells is a pretty village which reputedly has the largest village green in Scotland and sits above the River Tweed. The village lies adjacent to the A68 which provides good vehicular access both north to Edinburgh and south to the northeast of England. Both Scottish Borders Council’s Headquarters and the Borders General Hospital are within easy reach. The Waverley Rail link between Tweedbank/Galashiels and Edinburgh terminates a short drive from St Boswells.
Local amenities include a hotel, restaurant, award-winning butcher, garage, fish and chip shop, bookshop and café and convenience stores. There is also a golf course next to the River Tweed, a cricket club, football club, rugby club and tennis club. The village is also known for being on the route of St Cuthbert's Way, a long distance footpath linking Melrose Abbey to the Holy Island of Lindisfarne off the Northumberland coast. There is a primary school in the village and secondary schooling is at the well regarded Earlston High School.
