Situated on the East Coast, just over the Scottish Border, and only eight miles north of Berwick-upon-Tweed, Eyemouth has been a bustling fishing port for centuries, and there are a number of local fishmongers still supplied from local fishing boats today. Narrow cobbled streets preserve the ancient character of this delightful coastal town, and there's a number of visitor attractions outlining the history of the area. Visit Gunsgreen House and learn some of the history of the town and the smuggling that once took place, or enjoy the Eyemouth Museum, fishing heritage centre and art galleries on offer. There are excellent golfing facilities available, with a clifftop course in town and a number of other courses in the area, while walks, cycling, bird watching and visits to castles and country houses are all within a short driving distance. Visit Coldingham Priory, Paxton House, Manderston House, Floors Castle and the magnificent walled town of Berwick-upon-Tweed for an exciting day out. Both Edinburgh and Newcastle upon Tyne are reached in an hour, making Eyemouth a wonderful base for touring South Scotland, and the North of England.

    Great choice of pubs and eateries. Great walks in surrounding area. Owners very thoughtful and helpful. Would definitely recommend.

  • David

    The location was fantastic, just 2 minutes walk to the beach and town centre. The house was very comfortable and had a great selection of board games etc…My only fault would be there was no secure space for letting the dog out. If there was a gate at the side of the door it would have been perfect but this would not stop me returning. Eyemouth is such a lovely town with a few great restaurants and fantastic fish and chip shop. Also just a 10 minute drive to Berwick Upton tweed and spital beach.

    Originally booked for 7 days but extended a further 3 days as everything was perfect. Would have given 5 stars except for parking as first few days was fine last night had to park a good walk away and the same in the morning when trying to leave.
