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. 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. 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.

Seaview is an excellent cottage with a lovely view! St. Abbs is a great base for walking and driving along this part of the Borders, with many interesting places to visit. It's also a coastline area of outstanding beauty, with a wealth of wildlife!

Seaview cottage is a gem, the owners are extremeley kind and considerate and very helpful and thoughtful. We had a Christmas holiday and the cottage was very warm, the owners ensuring that we we were comfortable and asked for anything we may need. The views from the lounge window are fantastic.

The view from Seaview Cottage is simply stunning.The setting is marvellous and the area is beautiful. It was a perfect place to relax and get away from it all but was still within easy reach of Edinburgh and Berwick and other tourist spots.

An excellent location with great sea views and numerous cliff walks and nearby beaches. Handy for Berwick - castle wall walks - and North Berwick area with its nice mix of sea-side, harbours and countryside. Good train / bus links to Edinburgh. Very comfortable cottage with friendly hosts.

A good base for exploring the Scottish Borders/Northumberland. Wonderful views from the lounge window of St Abbs Bay.
Mrs Rostron, Preston, Lancashire

The cottage was lovely and the host very friendly. It is an ideal location for a quiet 'away from it all' holiday. The view from the window was worth the journey on its own.
