The town of Newtown St Boswells sits south east of the Eildon Hills, and a mile north of St Boswells. The town sits on the Bowden Burn, a tributary of the Tweed, which once provided the power for corn mills. Once a small agricultural village called Newtown, the 'St Boswells' was added with the coming of the railway in the 1800's and the settlement's elevation to a major town housing the Scottish Borders Council. When the railway left, the title remained. Newtown St Boswells is easy to find, and is ideally situated for exploring the Scottish Borders, with ancient abbeys, castles and grand houses open to the public. There are also many walks and cycle ways in the borders. Within a few minutes driving distance are Melrose, Galashiels and Jedburgh. Edinburgh is just a 40 minute drive, making this an ideal location to access the festival and Tattoo, or simply to look around the ancient city.
