Location: St. Abbs

Berwick-upon-Tweed 11 miles; Edinburgh 49 miles.

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! An ideal location for walks - the Cheviots, Scottish Borders and the spectacular coastline all offer excellent walking. There is a safe, sandy beach less than 1 mile away in nearby Coldingham, which is very popular with surfers. The historic fortified Border town of Berwick-upon-Tweed, with shops, a museum and a castle, is nearby, and is well worth a visit. Holy Island, the Farne Islands, the attractive seaside villages of Craster, Eyemouth and Seahouses, and Edinburgh, capital city of Scotland, are all within touring distance.

Previous visitors' comments about Tweed Apartment, Press Castle:

Thoroughly enjoyed the peaceful surroundings. Apartment is in a good location being near to the coast. Saw plenty of wildlife. Apartment was warm and cosy and ticked all the boxes. Weather was extremely good considering time of year.
Mr Round, Bolton, September 2012

Unfortunately the weather was appalling, but Tweed Apartment gave us a home from home to come back to in the evening. It was a lovely cosy flat ideal for a restful get away from it all holiday. The owner provided plenty of information on things to see and do in the area. I would definitely recommend it to other people who want a relaxing break and I would definitely go back again.
Mrs Brown, Leeds, June 2012

A great spot, we liked that it was within travelling distance of Scotland. We loved the location.
