Description

The tower has been lovingly renovated throughout by the current owners to create a unique and fabulously atmospheric home for holidays and special events either on a self-catered or fully-staffed basis.

The interior style is one of understated luxury, remaining perfectly in-tune with the ancient building, whilst sumptuous beds and an array of mod-cons will ensure that all needs are catered for.

There are quirky features at every turn including vaulted stone ceilings, original oak doors, vast stone fireplaces and the delightful Kerry-handed (left turning) spiral staircase which forms the backbone of the tower.

The surrounding countryside is no less impressive. Aikwood Tower is set within the rolling hills and ancient woodlands of the Ettrick and Yarrow valleys with endless opportunities for walking, mountain biking and riding as well as river kayaking.

Keen wildlife watchers and photographers will have no end of possible subjects amongst the abundant local wildlife including the majestic ospreys that have recently returned to the region.

Location

Nearby Selkirk is a traditional Border's town famous for its textiles with many of the original woollen mills still in operation today. The beguiling town of Melrose is also nearby, home of rugby 7s and offering some of the best shopping in the Borders with a good selection of unusual, independent shops, boutiques, antique shops and galleries. Further afield, the Georgian grandeur of Edinburgh is an easy day trip.
