Is this "do-able" Borders back to Edinburgh

This is a very ambitious itinerary so please give me opinions.<BR><BR>Is it possible to leave Kelso at about 10 am and head to Alnwick (doesn't open until 11). Then stop at Bamburgh castle on the way up to Tantallon (doesn't open till 2 anyway)...then Direlton castle, returning our rental car by 6 pm? Thanks!

Sorry to disappoint you, but this just too much. You seem to have 8 hours of hire car and this schedule has about 4 hours of driving. The beauty of these places is the peace and the sense of a different world - don't rush them. I would suggest EITHER Alnwick and Banburgh OR Tantallon and Dirleton. In fact I would probably go for only one per day. Top of my Pops would be Bamburgh castle. Good luck<BR><BR>

I love these questions. Are you asking if it's possible time-wise to do this itinerary or are you asking if in the opinion of this forum this is an approvable itinerary?
