Melrose Abbey is an ideal place to begin your day of discovery in Melrose. This residence for monks comes recommended by fellow travelers, but it's not the only spot to see here. Allow some time for other attractions like Abbotsford, Dryburgh Abbey, and Market Square to really enjoy what's on offer in the area.
