Just over the Border into Scotland, St. Abbs is a picturesque fishing village with a delightful harbour and fishermen's cottages hugging the hillside, situated on a beautiful stretch of Berwickshire coastline. Diving can be enjoyed from the harbour, while the nearby St. Abbs Head Nature Reserve has a rich variety of wildlife and is a paradise for birdwatchers!

Previous visitors' comments about Tweed Apartment, Press Castle:
A relaxing place to be. We liked visiting the local area, Berwick was an amazing town. We would like to go back for longer in the summer! The chocolate shop was really good. St.Abbs is beautiful and Eyemouth is very interesting. The accommodation allowed us to do what we wanted. Excellent organic meat farm nearby.

An excellent apartment in every respect and in a very quite location. Interesting area with good access to both Scotland, especially Edinburgh and Northumberland.
Mr Ellis, Wrexham, September 2011
Great location - accommodation was first class and had real character. Nice touches like tea, coffee and milk on arrival.
