The Scottish town of Galashiels sits on the banks of the Gala Water River. It is known for textile making. There are several places of interest in the area, including Picts’ Work Ditch, an Iron Age hill fort, Buckholm Tower, and the Glasite Church. There is a good selection of places to stay in the town, as well as a wide range of places to eat as well as various watering holes to enjoy some Scottish night time fun. And, of course, when in Scotland, you should be sure to try some haggis and some locally produced whisky. A good way to see Galashiels and beyond is with a car rental offered by VIP Cars. You can enjoy the convenience of going where you want to go.
