Opening the front door, an elegant spiral staircase leads you up to a light-filled open-plan kitchen, dining and living area. Dual aspect windows offer views towards St Mary’s School, giving the property its name, while the attractive country kitchen, large tweed sofas and plaid curtains make this a homely space in which to relax after busy days exploring all that Melrose has to offer. Two comfortable double bedrooms and stylish bathrooms with walk-in showers are also found on this upper floor, each offering sweeping views across Melrose. Thanks to this property’s prime location, the key sights of Melrose are all within five minutes’ stroll - Melrose Abbey, the Trimontium Museum and the National Trust’s Harmony Garden and Priorwood Gardens amongst them. Add to that Melrose’s celebrated boutiques, pubs and restaurants (the acclaimed farm-to-fork restaurant Provender is literally next door), and you’ll find yourself sinking gratefully into those tweed sofas at the end of long, contented days’ exploring. For longer walks, the 100km-long St Cuthbert’s Way starts here in Melrose, where the Saint started his religious life in 650AD, and takes hikers all the way to the Holy Island of Lindisfarne, where his life ended. Keen walkers might also be tempted to hike all, or just some sections, of the 107km-long Borders Abbey circular walk, which links the historic abbeys of Melrose, Dryburgh, Jedburgh and Kelso.
