Melrose and Bowhill

Last Friday, we took a house trip to the Duke of Buccleuch's other property, the Bowhill Estate. The estate holds a lot of the family's antiques that belong at the Dalkeith House, historically. We explored the grounds and took pictures because we couldn't take any in the house. After that, we went to Melrose and explored the Melrose Abbey and the garden next door and walked around the town. Then we made a stop at Scots View before heading back home. It was a spectacular day trip!

Pretty pink & orange flowers

A pretty neat urn

I don't know if I was supposed to stand on the grass, oh well.

The hedges were pretty cool

The view was amazing even though it wasn't sunny!

Their land goes on for acres

This used to be the entrance to the estate until the Duke wanted to enlarge the drawing room. This side looks way more grand.
