Super ruined castle on the top of a hill with magnificent views all round. Easy parking for cars or, in our case, bikes and easy ascent to the castle which is very well kept.Full review by Mike S

This is a epic castle. It doesn’t look like a castle but still go because I had the time of my life. The view is fab too and watch your step because there are tons of sheep poo.Full review by Bibcay

Sorry for the delay. Delighted to hear about your roots. Yes, Kelso would be a fine place to stay, although I have not stayed anywhere there so cannot make any personal recommendations either. I have stayed at Mansefield, a B&B at the eastern end of Greenlaw which is just north of the castle and even closer than Kelso. Greenlaw also has strong Hume/Home links.
