Nestled close to the banks of the River Leader in Scotland's Berwickshire, Earlston has a number of heritage sites with which to lure visitors. This lovely market town has many reminders of its rich past, from the 13th century ruins of Rhymer's Tower, once inhabited by poet Thomas Learmonth, to the equally old Bemersyde estate to the south of town. The estate features a castle, near to which is Scott's View, allegedly the one-time favourite viewpoint of Sir Walter Scott. A further architectural highlight lies in the northern suburb of Carolside, an exquisite three-floor Georgian mansion. With Edinburgh just over 30 miles away, Earlston is often just a stopping off point for visitors en route by car from England to the Scottish capital. The A68 runs just to the west of the town, connecting with Edinburgh to the northwest and Northumberland National Park, across the English border to the southeast.
