Situated on the banks of the River Tweed, the town is protected to the north by the Lammermuir Hills and the Cheviots to the south, and lies in one of the most beautiful valleys in the country. Floors Castle is close by, and Kelso plays host to the annual Border Union Agricultural Show and world-famous tup sales. Kelso has a wide range of shops, supermarkets, and services with excellent schooling in the area. The town has very good primary and secondary schools, with private schooling available in Melrose (14 miles) and Berwick-upon Tweed. The area is well provided for in terms of recreation, leisure facilities such as rugby, ice skating, hockey, equestrian, tennis, and football.

Newcastle airport is approximately 58 miles to the south. There are lovely walks in the area and fishing is available on the Rivers Tweed and Teviot including the famous Junction Pool. Organised pheasant and grouse shooting is available locally.
