The property lies approximately 9 miles south of Innerleithen, 10 miles to the west of Selkirk (6 miles east of St Mary’s Loch) and is in reasonable distance of daily travel to Edinburgh and main Borders towns. The main elevation is south facing and enjoys fine outlooks. The Yarrow Valley is noted for its great scenic beauty and was celebrated in the old Borders ballads and in the verse of James Hogg, the Ettrick Shepherd. More recently the tranquillity of the location has been captured in the paintings of the well known Borders artist Tom Scott (1854 - 1927). The Yarrow Water flows down the Yarrow Valley from St Mary’s Loch to the Ettrick Water, southwest of Selkirk. Local amenities include the nearby Yarrow Primary School (within easy walking distance of the steading and without crossing a main road), the church at Yarrow and the Gordon Arms Hotel (approximately 2 miles distant). A wide range of amenities is available in Innerleithen and Selkirk which has a population of around 6,000 and boasts a well regarded High School. The Yarrow Valley is mainly devoted to pastoral farming and forestry and, is an excellent location for all country pursuits. DIRECTIONS From Selkirk take the A708, signed Yarrowford and Moffat, and continue along this road past Yarrowford and Yarrow, turning left approximately 1.5 miles past Yarrow (shortly before reaching Yarrow Feus). The turning is immediately before Yarrow Primary School. The private road to Ladhope Steading then crosses the Yarrow Water and heads uphill to the steading. Travelling east through Innerleithen take the first turning on the right after entering the village. Cross the Tweed Bridge and turn right at the junction, onto the B709, and continue on this road until you reach the crossroads at the Gordon Arms Hotel. Turn left onto the A708 and continue past Yarrow Feus and turn right immediately after Yarrow Primary School. Continue as above.
