LOCATION:  Situated in the midst of the Scottish Borders, Roberton is a small rural village located about five miles west of Hawick.  Set along the B711 road, it lies within a peaceful landscape of rolling hills, farmland, and wooded valleys. The village is closely associated with the Borthwick Water and nearby natural features such as Alemoor Loch and Craik Forest, which contribute to its scenic character and appeal for outdoor activities like walking and cycling.

Historically, Roberton formed part of a rural parish spanning Roxburghshire and Selkirkshire, with agriculture—particularly sheep farming—playing an important role in local life. Today, it remains a small, close-knit community with a church and village hall serving as social hubs.

Hawick offers a multitude of varied attractions, including the Borders Textile Towerhouse, Borders Distillery, cinema, Teviotdale Leisure Centre, Vertish Hill Golf Course and the award-winning Wilton Lodge Park.  The town boasts a number of independent shops and bistros as well as larger supermarkets and excellent schooling, and is also the venue for the famous annual Common Riding and popular Summer Festival.  The area offers opportunities for walking, cycling, horse riding and fishing, and the surrounding Borders towns are easily accessible, with the Borders railway only a 25-minute drive away.
