George & Abbotsford Hotel - Shopping around Newtown St Boswells

Usually use four wheel 🛒 to help get around. Only have two wheelers like a wheel barrow. But they did have wheelchairs available to save the day. Would be even better if the wheelchairs had a small trolley to avoid having to balance the basket on the lap of the wheelchair ♿ user. Signage from the A68 is OK at the southern entrance to Newtown St Boswells, but non-existent if you are coming from the town centre having left the A68 at the northern entrance to the town. We saw no reassuring sign confirming you're on the correct approach road to the garden centre at the final turn. Good selection of goods and plants. Didn't know in advance that there was a cafeteria - something to look forward to next time!

Very nice place. Helpful and friendly staff. Clean. Pity I was only passing through. Call in again most certainly.

Great garden design ideas and approach - Hamish has tonnes of experience and clearly loves what he does. Garden Options is a sister to the equally brilliant Hendersons of Melrose - stunning and stylish furniture and ornaments for the garden. Easily worth a special trip to Melrose for a browse (and buy!).
