About 150 acres of farmland


Description

Lot 2 lies towards the northwestern corner of the farm and extends to 150 acres. It comprises 135 acres of arable and temporary pasture land and 11 acres of woodland shelter belts. The land is ideally suited to silage and arable production with an average field size of 45 acres allowing for easy movement of modern farm machinery. There is good internal access between the fields or from the public roads.

The land is classified as a mixture of Class 4(1) and Class 4(2) by the James Hutton Institute of Soil Research and lies between 210 and 220 metres above sea level. The soils are of the Eckford and Innerwick series which comprise calcareous soils and are derived from old sandstone sediments.

Location

Cammerlaws and North Hurdlaw farm sits in a scenic part of Berwickshire nestled between the heather clad Lammermuir Hills to the north and Greenlaw Moor to the south. The area is renowned for its productive farmland which is ideally suited for the production of stock and growing good crops of silage and cereals. The farm lies on the edge of Westruther, a small hamlet which has a local pub and village hall. Close by are the towns of Duns (10 miles) and Kelso (16 miles) which provide a greater variety of amenities and facilities.
Kelso, the historic county town of Roxburghshire, with Floors Castle to the north and the River Tweed flowing through, is a thriving centre, particularly geared to serving the surrounding agricultural community, country sports enthusiasts and tourists with excellent shops, schooling, recreational facilities and professional services. There is a choice of both public and private schooling available locally including a village primary school in Westruther and a high school in Earlston (15 miles). Longridge Towers, a private primary and secondary school is located close to the town of Berwick. There is a further selection of private schools in Edinburgh where all the cultural, professional and shopping facilities of a capital city can be found.
Edinburgh city centre (36 miles) is highly accessible either via the A68 through Lauderdale, or by the new Edinburgh-Borders railway which can be joined 22 miles away at Tweedbank. Berwick-upon-Tweed lies 25 miles to the east and offers a regular rail service on the main east coast line to London King’s Cross (journey time from 3 hours 40 minutes). Both Edinburgh Airport (42 miles) and Newcastle Airport (80 miles) offer a wide range of domestic, European and international flights.
The Borders is a genuinely rural area which is famed for its scenic landscapes, productive farmland and its country sports. The nearby River Tweed is one of Scotland’s finest salmon rivers, while the well managed grouse moors – the Lammermuirs – lie to the northeast and the Cheviots to the south. This is also wonderful riding country with three active hunts (Lauderdale, Buccleuch and Berwickshire) and pony clubs nearby. Kelso Racecourse is an easy drive and there are many golf courses in the area, including the picturesque 18 hole championship course at The Roxburghe and a course at Jedburgh.
The area is well served by numerous grain merchants, agricultural suppliers and livestock markets, including St Boswells (20 miles) and Wooler (33 miles). The major agricultural show, The Border Union, takes place in July at Kelso and the annual Kelso Ram Sales in September is the largest event of this type in Europe.
