I live in Peeblesshire in the Scottish Borders. Books from that county include O Douglas’s books about Priorsford (really the town of Peebles where I live). She was Anna Buchan, sister of John Buchan who wrote The 39 Steps. John Buchan also wrote Burnett of Barns, another book set in Peeblesshire. Barns Tower is still standing and in fact has been refurbished for self catering let. I’ve only just found you here so you may already know these books! I’ll be back!
Thanks, Evee – I haven’t read any of O Douglas’s books, although I have heard of them – more to look out for – I didn’t know they are set in Peebles.
