Local Accommodation

Peebles is small Scottish Borders town with an abundance of accommodation of all types available via booking sites like AirBnB. What is worth bearing in mind as you look for somewhere is that due to the nature of the rural location I would search within a 10 mile radius to make travel times suitable.
