The Neighborhood:
Located in the heart of the Scottish Uplands, Glentress Forest is a premier destination for outdoor enthusiasts.

The area is rich in wildlife and history; you can wander past peaceful ponds and discover ancient ruins tucked within the woods. For families, the on-site Forest Rangers offer activities ranging from Nature Tots to Survival Skills and Wildlife Wonders. Just a short drive away, the River Tweed leads you to the charming town of Peebles, where you can explore traditional Scottish pubs and local delicacies.
