why film in the scottish borders
If you are considering filming in the Scottish Borders, you don't need to look far for the benefits it would offer your production.
The Borders has an amazing variety of locations within a small geographical area. Its quiet roads take you through the heather-clad hills of Tweedsmuir to the thick woodlands and winding valleys of Ettrick Forest, alongside the breathtaking river and tributaries of the River Tweed. Scenic Border towns such as Peebles, Melrose, Kelso and Eyemouth give way to industrial and mill towns such as Selkirk, Hawick and Galashiels.

LOCATIONS
Given the area's small population of around 100,000, there's a surprisingly high number of splendid residences here. The Scottish Borders can offer you a choice of over 30 castles and almost 160 mansions that are perfect for filming and cover a range of periods and styles to suit almost any script. Go to our LOCATIONS section to view a sample of what is available.
