The Black Bull is a great hotel with a nice restaurant open to the public. They showcase the best of the local Scottish produce in there funky dining room. Can be busy so it's worth booking ahead if you can.

Really enchanting views from this spot on the Earlston Circular Path on the Carolside Estate. Gorgeous views of Black Hill and Blinkbonny Hill. Beautiful, green, and at the right time in the autumn, you get an Impressionist leaves colour attack!
