Thanks so much Wendy, that’s really kind of you and much appreciated. Best wishes, David 🙂
Great video David! I've lived in Peebles since i was a wee boy and was lucky enough to be chosen to lead the Beltane Festival in 2014 as the Cornet. Its great to see videos like this showcasing how beautiful our wee town is. Thank you.
Thanks Kevin, that’s so kind of you and much appreciated. I’m very fond of the town and hope to do a bit more filming around Peebles soon. Thanks for watching and have a lovely weekend. All the best, David 🙂

Hi Alan, hope you're well. Yes, Glentress is a bit of a paradise for mountain-bikers. I think it's regarded as one of the best trails in the U.K. although nowadays I don't think I'd make it any further than the cafe lol! Hope you're having a lovely weekend and have had a nice relaxing week off. Keep going with your own filming. I'm sure you'll be brilliant :-) All the best, David
Hi Mr. Wheater, iv'e been searching my ancestor's and my great grandparents were from Innerleithen, Peebles-Shire and their surname was Hosie, and migrated to the United States in the late 1800's. Thank you and appreciate you going to this part of Scotland and showing this beautiful Country, and am grateful that I got to see where where my ancestor's actually lived, thanks to you! Well have great day and thanks again!
Hi Teresa, that’s wonderful. I’m so glad you were able to see where they came from. It’s still a truly magical part of Scotland and I hope that one day you might be able to visit. Thanks so much for letting me know and for watching. Warmest best wishes, David 😊
Nice video. I didn't know anything about Peebles. But after watching this those cakes are enough to make me want to go.
Thanks for watching Pete. It’s a great wee town in a really beautiful part of the world and yes, the cakes are truly incredible! Warmest best wishes, David 🙂
I used to work in the Hydro when I was a student.I spent a lot of times in the Cross Keys and the other pubs in the town.Happy days.It’s thirty odd years since I was last there.
Hi Rachel, thanks for watching, hope it brought back some good memories of living in Peebles, best wishes, David 🙂
A lovely place peebles and so is the surrounding area, thanks for your time and effort
Thanks very much Harry. Always appreciate you watching and your very kind comments. Hope you have a lovely week and I should have another video out next week on neighbouring Innerleithen which I hope you’ll enjoy too. Thanks again, David
Aw the ducklings were so cute!! 🥰 And the cakes looked yummy. Peebles is a lovely place. We’ve played in the theatre a view times and it’s great. Thanks for sharing another great video David. And your walking tour sounds great 👍🏻 You are a wonderful guide with so much knowledge!
Thank you for all your kindness, it means such a lot to me. My family live in Peebles & Innerleithen so I’m very fortunate to be there most weeks. I’m ashamed to say I’ve only ever had a coffee at the Eastgate, but my sister goes regularly and Sophie my niece does her dancing there. I’m so glad to be back to doing the tours and welcoming visitors back to the city. It’s slow progress starting from scratch again, but I love doing it and I’m sure things will get busier as the summer comes along. So glad you liked the ducklings. I’m hoping to film our local cygnets tomorrow if the weather allows. Thanks so much for watching and for all your support & friendship. All the best, David
Thank you for sharing this video. I haven’t been to Peebles since 2019, just before COVID. I will go next year.
Use to live in Coldstream first time experience the Scottish Borders absolutely amazing place to stay if only you like the peace and quiet, it has its moments like civic week was good tbh and Coldstream gaurds and then the candle walk at end of the week.
Had a friend it stayed in Peebles and his brother had a gym very decent guy and was only there for like 5 hours but it's like you visit one border town you seen them all basically or least that's what they say.
Good channel Mr friend
Hi Aldo, thanks for watching, really glad you enjoyed it. The Borders is such a lovely region to live and very peaceful & quiet which I always really appreciate. Thanks for taking the time to watch, it’s much appreciated. Best wishes, David 🙂
Hi David love the hopeful opening shot!! Rainbows always make me smile. Haven't been to Pebbles for some years, my gran lived there😁 so it has wonderful memories. Glad to see it's still thriving. Hope you are keeping well. Keep safe C.
Thanks Clive, hope you’re well too. My family live in Peebles & Innerleithen so I’m down there most weeks. It’s still thriving despite the pandemic and I love spending time there, especially down by the river. Hope it brought back some good memories of your grandmother. Thanks again for all your support and have a lovely weekend. All the best, David
Your video showed up in my YT suggestions tonight and I’m glad it did. I will be there this coming June as part of a Scotland tour and am looking forward to it so much. Your video shows me some of the things I can look forward to seeing, awesome, thank you!
Thanks Sam, really glad it was helpful and I'm sure you'll love visiting. I can really recommend visiting nearby Traquair House which is the oldest inhabited house in Scotland. I've just published a video of a recent video which I hope you'll enjoy too. All the best, David :-)
Hello, David! Thank you for this lovely video on Peebles! I am so looking forward to being back here, even if only for a day on my trip in August, and found a few new places to experience & explore with my bestie! Happy Sunday!
Hi Stephanie, hope you’re well and glad you enjoyed the video. Yes Peebles is well worth a visit. There’s so much to see and do in and around the town and I’ll have another video out covering Innerleithen next week, which is also worth a visit. Hope you have a lovely weekend and thanks so much for taking the time to comment. It’s always hugely appreciated. Best wishes, David 😀
Very nice scenery David.
Thanks so much Maxine, really glad you enjoyed it. It’s a lovely town and it was great fun to film. Hope you have a lovely weekend. All the best, David
A very informative video. Thank you
Thank you Mary, much appreciated. Thanks so much for watching, best wishes, David 🙂
David, that was a great revelation! I've driven through Peebles many times but never knew there were so many attractions. Mind you, I think some are of recent vintage and I commend the town for enhancing the natural beauty of the surroundings with a vibrant and visually attractive environment. Tentatively, my wife and I plan to visit in September and I'll let you know how well it measures up to your videography!
Hi Leon, so glad you enjoyed the video of Peebles. I spend a lot of time there visiting family and it’s grown more and more on me. I left a few places out of the video which I can also recommend, particularly Hay Lodge Park. It’s perfect for a picnic next to the river and a walk along to Neidpath Castle. I often cycle around this beautiful park and may well do a video of it soon as it’s very beautiful. Hope you have a wonderful visit to Peeblesshire. If you’re driving down from Edinburgh I can recommend popping into the excellent Pine Trees Cafe at Eddleston or The Horseshoe Inn. The Great Polish Map of Scotland is also worth a look close by at The Barony Castle Hotel. Thanks so much for watching and have a lovely weekend. All the best, David 🙂
We have passed thru Peebles but never stopped, I think we may do next time....👍
Hi Martyn, lovely to hear from you and hope you’re well. Yes it’s well worth a stop. Next week’s video will be in neighbouring Innerleithen and together they make a grand day out. Thanks so much for watching and have a lovely week. All the best, David
I feel really inspired to visit. I've never even been to Scotland but saw something about Melrose on BBC Countryfile and decided to look at that general area. What have I been missing?! I wonder how the weather compares to here in the North West of England?
Hi Mike, thanks for watching and I’m really glad you’re inspired to visit. The Borders are very beautiful with some lovely towns and I’m sure you’ll really enjoy visiting. The weather is always changeable, but September can sometimes be an excellent time to visit and the Autumn colours can be spectacular. All the best, David 🙂
