It's a beautiful place in Scotland. Picture was taken in the middle of the day but clods were nice, no harsh light and remember that this is ticketed area and there is no access at summer golden hours. Worth visiting, you can also capture some architecture details there.
Ancient Abbey-Melrose one of the highlights of our Scotland trip. Such a beautiful and serene place. A wealth of history

Lovely location, very friendly staff, great food and a comfortable stay. The property is a gem in the rough - the common areas present beautifully but the room was a bit tired (but still very comfy)

Unfortunately the hotel was due to close on the morning we left due to coronavirus restrictions. But you would not have known this from the way we were treated. Nothing was too much trouble, so friendly and welcoming. We will def go back one day.

I was only there overnight and for a visit to Melrose Abbey in the morning. Melrose looks like a lovely place to visit. Interesting shops and restaurants. The museum was closed (Sunday).

Lovely place to visit and will certainly be staying at the George and Abbotsford Hotel again. Staff go the extra mile, fantastic service.
