Ashkirk

Scotland

Ashkirk is a small Borders village on the A7 between Edinburgh and Carlisle, making it a handy stop for cross-border journeys. The village sits 8km from Selkirk amid typical rolling countryside, with decent EV charging nearby in Hawick and Selkirk. It's mainly a pass-through spot for tourists exploring the wider Borders region, but the 17th-century red sandstone church with its distinctive bell tower is worth a quick look.
