Wander among the graceful ruins of this beautiful abbey set beside the River Tweed. Stone carvings and painted plasterwork have survived to provide a fascinating glimpse of its once-magnificent decoration. Look for the final resting place of author Sir Walter Scott and WW1 military leader Field Marshall Douglas Haig.
