All about Peebles

About an hour south of Edinburgh, the town of Peebles is characterized by its magnificent rolling green hills, from the Moorfoot Hills in the north to Dun Rig in the south. The landscape here is vast and dotted with pockets of woodland, including pine and larch. The high street in Peebles is lined with traditional stone buildings, and the 500-year-old market cross stands tall in the middle of the square to remind visitors of its importance as a market town and its history as a royal burgh.

The imposing crown spire of the 19th-century Peebles Old Church dominates the heart of the city beside the many arches of Tweed Bridge. The bridge dates back hundreds of years and crosses the River Tweed, which runs through the centre of town, offering riverside walks and parks, including Victoria Park and Hay Lodge Park. Peebles enjoys a thriving arts scene centred on the Eastgate Theatre and Arts Centre, which is housed in a former church.

What are the top things to do in Peebles?

Ruins of Cross Kirk

In the northern part of town stand the Cross Kirk ruins, which serve as a reminder of when Peebles was an important pilgrimage site. In the 13th century, a church was built here after a cross and an urn containing what were believed to be the remains of St Nicholas were discovered.

Tweeddale Museum and Gallery

A 16th-century building in the centre of Peebles is home to the Tweeddale Museum and Gallery. The exhibits on display detail the region’s history, from its past as a medieval pilgrimage site and its time as a royal burgh to its woollen mills.

Around 6.5 kilometres outside Peebles is the magnificent Glentress Forest, with a selection of walking and mountain-biking trails of varying lengths and difficulty.
