Day 7, travelled further south for our last day in Scotland, took a slightly more scenic route and found a beautiful little town called Melrose, which has a beautiful ruin of an Abbey which has history back to the Vikings and is rumoured to have had Robert the Bruce's heart buried there. Plenty of small little shops, restaurants, pubs and cafes. A local walk takes you along the river Tweed and past Melrose RFC the home to Rugby 7's, what a fantastic set up they have, enjoyed watching them in preseason training. The campsite we are on is only small but very well-equipped. Back in the Motorhome after a great bar meal which offers 10% off to all campsite users! We have truly had the most epic adventure doing the NC 500 and are already talking about when we can do it again. This trip was absolutely spare of the moment, we hadn't booked any sites,.we had no idea where we were heading, we just went for it. There are definitely places where we want to spend more time exploring and wouldn't want to do the amount of miles we have done each day....we've had a reki,.now to plan the next NC 500 trip. It can be done in 7 nights but 10/14 more realistic. Once again, please message for prices and let hiring from Eventyr Motorhome Hire be the start of your own epic journey.
