Kelso Abbey and Floors Castle

by ringleader - last update: Mar 1, 2004

Kelso Abbey

Kelso Abbey
Simply a ruins of an old abbey right in the middle of town. That's all - if you're on the abbey-streak, do stop and see - it is rather interesting.

Also, Floors Castle is in Kelso area - so pair the two together and you'll feel rewarded.

Other Border Abbeys worth visiting (see my other travel tips) are Dryburgh (in St. Boswells), Jedburgh, Melrose. Kelso is most ruined of them all. All of these abbeys are located close to each other and can be easily seen in a day's trip to the Borders.

 Old ruins speak for themselves = no need for guides

 Sometimes, the best "tours" are ones without leaders or instructions. This one seems to be the case.
