Visitors can see the holly tree that marks the spot where James II of Scotland was killed on 3 August 1460. Tours of the house include the bird room, where the sixth Duke's collection of stuffed birds sits rather oddly in their gothic cases.

Visitors are also invited to explore the grounds, including the Woodland and Riverside walk, from where - if you're lucky - you could see oyster catchers, herons or green plovers on the River Tweed.

There is also the Millennium Parterre, created in the woodland in 2000 as a complement to the Walled Garden.
