It's a beautiful place in Scotland. Picture was taken in the middle of the day but clods were nice, no harsh light and remember that this is ticketed area and there is no access at summer golden hours. Worth visiting, you can also capture some architecture details there.
Ancient Abbey-Melrose one of the highlights of our Scotland trip. Such a beautiful and serene place. A wealth of history

Parking was easy, the room was clean and the bed comfortable but the towel rail in the bathroom was not working. Breakfast was better than dinner although I have no complaints about dinner.

A fun and quaint little town. Good to know about the free, unlimited parking at the Co Op.
