Morven Park is a 15th-century fortified tower house situated in the Scottish Borders, near the town of Peebles. This historic property features a unique blend of medieval and Renaissance architectural styles, with a striking façade adorned with intricate stone carvings and ornate windows. The interior boasts an impressive great hall, ornate plasterwork, and a collection of antique furnishings. The surrounding parkland offers scenic walking trails, picturesque views, and opportunities to spot local wildlife.
Morven Park was more like Morven quite big and crucially very wet field. Mostly used by local dog walkers, many of whom were walking their dogs off lead which led to me getting barked at by a big dog and falling in a puddle. Fun times! There was a sign that said, 'If you are chased by a cow, let your dog off the lead.' which led to many interesting theories about the incident that led to this advice being necessary.
I would not call it a park. When I went it was cattle grazing fields with lots of cow pats and some were fresh. The only bit that could be called a park was football playing field in a corner that was fenced off.
Situated Potters Bar high street between Hatfield Road and The Causeway Varied journey great for all explorers.
No parking and just a footpath. Save your legs and go to somewhere better.
Good for a bracing walk in the cold... Not a challenging route so relatively easy
