Today, we visit Jedburgh, a town renowned for its connections to Mary Queen of Scots. Until the 17th century, Jedburgh's strategic location made it a focal point of numerous Border battles. Nowadays, it radiates charm, with vibrant, restored structures surrounding its Market Place.
We then visit the incredible Abbotsford House and Gardens, the grand residence of none other than Sir Walter Scott – the famed 'Great Scott'. He rediscovered Scotland’s Crown Jewels, popularised tartan, and saved the Scottish banknote. We enjoy a guided tour through the lavish rooms and into the enchanting gardens, before indulging in an included cream tea.
