St Ronan’s Wells and Gardens, Innerleithen – A Peaceful Spot with a Story

#hellohalloween St Ronan’s Wells is a lovely little historic gem tucked above Innerleithen, surrounded by peaceful gardens and woodland views. Once a Victorian spa retreat, it was built around a natural mineral spring said to have healing properties. The inside building is closed, but you can explore the gardens freely. We wandered through the gardens, which are beautifully kept and full of colour in spring and summer. There’s a calm, timeless feel about the place — benches under trees, flower beds buzzing with bees, and lovely views across the town below. It’s a short, easy walk from the centre of Innerleithen and a perfect stop if you enjoy history, quiet nature, or just somewhere peaceful to pause during a Borders day out. Small, charming, and full of local heritage — St Ronan’s Wells and Gardens is well worth a visit. #scotland #innerleithen
