Map of the UK

Denholm is a small, conservation-minded village in the Scottish Borders of Scotland, set amid rolling hills above the River Teviot and only a few miles from the market town of Hawick. It feels very much of the Borders: a compact cluster of stone cottages around a green, with narrow lanes and farmland stretching into the surrounding countryside.

Historically the settlement grew from agriculture and the Borders textile trades, and today the local economy mixes farming, small businesses and commuters to nearby towns; the village also keeps a strong sense of community with local events, conservation efforts and good walking country close to hand. Visitors often appreciate the intact historic character and peaceful rural setting rather than busy tourist attractions.
