Directions
Mellerstain is beautifully situated in the unspoiled rural tranquillity of the Scottish Borders, yet getting here is easy. The A1 to the east and A68 to the west are the main access routes through the Borders region. The closest train station is in Berwick-upon-Tweed to the east.
The local roads are small and quiet, and Mellerstain is well sign-posted from both of the closest towns - Earlston (5 miles) and Kelso (7.5 miles).
