About Kelso

Since the 17th century, Kelso Abbey has provided artistic inspiration for countless painters.

It lies adjacent to the Kelso Golf Club, a picturesque parkland course that was originally designed by Ben Sayers before being reconfigured by James Braid. After playing its 18 holes, you can relax in the cosy lounge or newly revamped restaurant.
