There are some excellent walks close by, while horse riding is popular, with the Borders offering excellent hacking terrain and a number of well-known riding schools nearby. The River Tweed is one of the most prolific salmon rivers in the world. There are a number of local golf courses including Galashiels itself which has a nine hole course. The Borders General Hospital is in close proximity. The town has a range of supermarkets which include M&S Simply Food, Tesco and Asda as well as independent retailers and many services.

The train station at Tweedbank can be easily accessed both by car and bike with the added benefit of free parking. Both Edinburgh and Newcastle have international airports.
