Set in hillside parkland, the student village has self-catering and hotel-type accommodation in adaptable rooms, lounges and communal areas, with views towards the Eildon Hills and down the Tweed Valley. The two Pavilion buildings have spacious self-catering flats, all fitted with ensuite bathrooms and linked to well-equipped kitchens and lounges. Larger deluxe rooms are also available.

Education and leisure facilities are on the student village's doorstep. The university's multi-million pound learning centre features computer suites, workshops, studios, a library and a gallery. The High Mill is the focus for the popular Summer Schools, which allow students and the public to learn the latest textile and design techniques. Beside the campus are the Netherdale bases for the famous Gala Rugby Football Club and Gala Fairydean Rovers, the footballers benefiting from the use of a 3G pitch, and the TriFitness training and health facility.
The natural beauty of the Scottish Borders is a magnet for walkers, golfers, cyclists and fishers.
The River Tweed, with its celebrated salmon beats, meanders nearby and the tree-lined hillsides are just waiting to be explored. Take your steps on The Southern Upland Way, the Borders Abbeys Way or St Cuthbert's Way and sample an invigorating trek through The Debatable Lands and a region defined by a rich and colourful heritage.
