The Grounds of Sir Walter Scott

It is Thursday! You know what that means. It is time for a throwback! So as I sipped my coffee, I scanned through my archives of photos I’ve taken.

Walking towards Abbotsford

Abbotsford House! Yes, the home of Sir Walter Scott. I love that place.

These photos were taken September 2020. We were allowed to roam the garden but not the house.

The grounds were delightful and even with all the restrictions, the gardens were lovely.

Abbotsford House is located in the Scottish Borders, near Galashiels, on the south bank of the River Tweed. It was built as the residence of Sir Walter Scott between 1817 and 1825.

It is time for a return visit! Especially now that so much more is open. I would love to see the inside. I am adding it to my list. Stay tuned.
