Jedburgh Abbey

Great ruins to visit with a lot of history. Some of it had been fenced off when we went, for safety/repairs, but this doesn't detract from what you can explore. You need to use your imagination of the builds between the Abby and the mill but the model when you go in gives you a good idea of what could have been.

Wonderful place to stop and relax. My wife and I had a picnic sat on one of the benches near the river facing the abbey. The small abbey shop sells a good range of gifts. The trip to the village was relatively easy with plenty of free parking! Yes free. Ambulant disabled should be OK the short walk. A pleasure to visit

Jedburgh Abbey is one of those places that stops you in your tracks. Rising up in the middle of the town, the remains of this 12th-century Augustinian abbey are breathtaking — towering stone arches, intricate carvings, and enough left standing to imagine the grandeur it once held. We spent a peaceful hour or two exploring the ruins, wandering through the cloisters and along the grassy grounds where you can look straight through the open windows to the hills beyond. There’s a small museum too, with fascinating artefacts that tell the story of the abbey’s turbulent past and the cross-border conflicts that shaped it. It’s right in the centre of Jedburgh, easy to reach on foot, and surrounded by lovely cafés and little shops (but there are some Abbey picnic spots of you fancy!). Even if you’ve seen other Border abbeys, Jedburgh feels special — calm, atmospheric, and beautifully preserved.

Enjoyed my visit. Unfortunately, some areas are fenced off due to potential of falling masonry caused by the very old age of the place, but that wasnt a major issue. I must have been a beautiful place when first completed in 1200s.

We were lucky that we had a beautiful sunny day and walking around the abbey was perfect. Audio on our cellphone perfect with clear information, one of the better ruins that we have visited. Easy access and free parking.

there is something magical about Abbey ruins throughput the UK and Jedbury Abbey is certainly that ..you can imagine the splendour.. Jedburgh Abbey, a ruined Augustinian abbey which was founded in the 12th century, is situated in the town of Jedburgh, in the Scottish Borders ..Jedburg Abbey was certainly one on my bucket list for our Scilottish trip

Beautiful and stunning view. Huge parking available. Time is a bit of constraint, they said last entry is at 3.30 and we got little late so did not get chance to go inside. But still the view from outside itself is stunning and, worth for a dayout.

Stopped in passing, amazing history, and walking through the remains of this former Abbey is spectacular. Well worth a visit, the entrance fee for 1x adult is £7.50
