Springwood Holiday Park is an owners-only holiday park in the Scottish Borders, ideal for buyers looking for holiday homes for sale in a peaceful riverside estate near the market town of Kelso. Set in mature, old estate parkland on the banks of the River Teviot and surrounded by woodland and lush green landscapes, it feels like a private countryside retreat. With a 12-month holiday season, owners’ lounge and bar, indoor and outdoor social spaces, children’s play area, Wi-Fi throughout and spacious pitches, Springwood Park is designed for relaxed, long-term holiday home ownership.

Description

Springwood Holiday Park sits within an established country estate beside the River Teviot, giving the park a sheltered, green feel with sweeping lawns, mature trees and woodland and riverside walks from your door. Holiday homes are set on generous, well-tended pitches so owners can enjoy both privacy and open views across the grounds.

In addition to an owners’ lounge and bar, there are indoor and outdoor social spaces, a children’s play area, and plenty of quiet corners to read, relax or watch the wildlife. The park’s owners-only model keeps the atmosphere calm and community-focused, while Kelso, being just about a mile away, means shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday services are close at hand. Beyond the town, the wider Scottish Borders offers abbeys, castles, country sports, local produce and open countryside to explore between stays.

Life at Springwood Park is slow-paced and outdoorsy: breakfasts on the deck overlooking lawns and trees, unhurried walks along woodland and river paths, and relaxed evenings in the owners’ lounge or back at your own holiday home. Many owners mix quiet time on-park with days out exploring Kelso’s shops and market square, historic sites like Floors Castle and Kelso Abbey, or heading further into the Borders for fishing, walking, cycling and local food.
