The local primary school has an excellent reputation, with an adjoining nursery and an out-of-school club also within the village, and falls within the catchment for Earlston High School, with school bus service available.

Being centrally positioned within the Borders, the A68 links the village to both north and south, with Edinburgh & Newcastle accessible in under an hour, and with the local railway station for the border line available at Tweedbank, opening up access to the city for both work and leisure. Access to further towns, such as Kelso and Galashiels are just a short 10-15 minute drive.

In addition to a host of amenities and excellent transport links, the picturesque village is quite literally surrounded by beautiful countryside; bordered by the River Tweed and Eildon Hills, St Boswells provides ably for those in search of countryside living and pursuits, with a local golf course, tennis club, cricket field and with ample opportunities for walks within the countryside such as St Cuthbert’s Way and the Eildon Hills.
