A holiday in Eyemouth is also worthwhile for those interested in history. The town was once known for being a notorious smuggling port due to its proximity to the continent. This fascinating history can be explored at the beautiful and notorious Gunsgreen House, an 18th century property that was built by a local smuggler and whose design features plenty of secret hiding places for his smuggled goods. There is also a museum and maritime centre open to the public.
