Broomhills Farm River Eco Pods

The River Tweed runs right past the boundary here, and on a still morning you can hear it moving over stones before you've even unzipped the pod door.

This is a spot for campers who want something a bit different — eco pods alongside traditional pitches for tents, campervans, and caravans, all tucked into a working farm in the Scottish Borders. It suits couples after a riverside escape, families who want space to roam, and anyone using the Borders as a base for walking the hills or cycling the quiet lanes that web out from Kelso and Melrose. Dogs aren't mentioned either way, so worth checking ahead if you're bringing one.

Facilities aren't spelled out in detail, so it's worth getting in touch before you book to know what's onsite. Campfires are allowed but you'll need to check the rules on arrival — likely depends on the season and conditions. The vibe feels low-key and nature-forward, the kind of place where the river does most of the entertaining and you're left to get on with it.

Hadrian's Wall Path

Spans 84 miles coast-to-coast from Wallsend to Bowness-on-Solway, following England's most dramatic Roman frontier. Terrain varies from gentle riverside stretches to steep climbs over Whin Sill crags (notably at Walltown and Housesteads), with exposed moorland sections. Not suitable for buggies or young children due to length, stiles, and challenging elevation changes. Dogs welcome but must be under close control near livestock and archaeological sites. Worth doing for the stunning combination o
