Wasn't sure whether to post this here or in the Scotland section but have gone for here as there seems to be other posts covering the Borders
We have just booked a cottage near Kelso for September for my wife and myself for 6 nights. We have not visited this area before apart from a 1 night stop at Jedburgh on our way to Inverness. I have had a quick look at some of the posts on the site but decided it would be easier to ask for some specific advise from my fellow GS'ers. What I would like is any advise on:
Places not to miss
Must ride roads
Lunch stops
Coffee stops
Very grateful for any advise that could help us have a great trip My wife doesn't mind being out all day as long as she gets a few stops
We have done a few of the roads further west between Dumfries and Ayr when we were staying in Penrith so not as bothered about revisiting that area unless we have the time.
Forgot to say this is on the bike
Thanks
Dave
