What's on Guide to the Scottish Borders- September 2017
The main event in the Borders this month is, undoubtedly, the Tour of Britain Cycle Race, which will be passing through on Sunday 3rd September. (It's such a big event, we've devoted a whole blog post to it!) But, in addition to this spectacular race, there are lots of things to do here this month, including the Scottish Borders Heritage Festival, which kicks-off on 1st September. And, don't forget Steve Messam's sculptures are only on display at Mellerstain until 11th September.
