We had a brilliant week. The house is stunning - as you enter, it makes you think, “wow.” It is well equipped and the welcome pack was one of the best we’ve ever had. Every room is lovely and the views of surrounding fields is nice. In the field opposite the kitchen, we saw hares everyday. We explored the local area everyday. We loved how close to Scotland you are and highly recommend a visit to North Berwick. We fed seals at Eyemouth, did a boat trip to see puffins from North Berwick and visited Bamburgh castle. The beaches are lovely- our favourites were Cocklawburn, Bamburgh, Low Newton by the sea and Coldingham.Would highly recommend.
