The Kelso Boushty

The Boushty (an old Scottish word meaning 'bed') is our self-catering studio flat in the heart of the historic market town of Kelso. The studio flat has been recently updated into a relaxing, calming, retreat, boasting a super king size bed, which, if requested, can be set up as a twin. It has a modern bathroom with large shower and fully equipped kitchenette as well as access to a lovely secluded garden. This self catering studio flat has a fully integrated kitchenette with everything you would need from a home away from home. The decor incorporates soft textured linen wall covering as well as faux-leather headboards, heavy weave cotton textiles and dark green velvet roman blinds. This is a relaxing oasis in the middle of Kelso but with close proximity to everything Kelso and the surrounding area has to offer. There is a short flight of steps into the garden and then another short flight of steps from the private entrance up into the studio flat. Each flight has less than 10 steps each with railing support for both flights. Although the accommodation is completely separate I am more than happy to be on hand if the need arises. Kelso is an historic market town of quaint, pretty proportions. We are just off the main square with all that has to offer, lovely shops, excellent butchers, cafes and restaurants. We are also parallel to the river Tweed which has lovely views over the river and Floors Castle. The closest train station is Galashiels, 30 minutes drive away, with Berwick-Upon- Tweed, in England, a 40 minute drive away. Bus number 67 can be caught in Galashiels or Berwick-Upon Tweed and can take around 1 hour to get to Kelso town centre from either direction. For bicycles, rods and tackle storage we are more than happy to accommodate and provide a safe and secure location to store them with ease of access. We would also consider motorcycle parking as we have an enclosed courtyard with street access that can accommodate one or two vehicles. This would need arrangements for entry and is secured at night.
