Coldingham is renowned for its golden sandy bay and has a lifeguard on duty during the summer months (one of only two in Scotland).

Eyemouth is an old-fashioned seaside town with a sandy beach, swimming pool, its own fishing museum and an excellent 18-hole golf course.

St Abbs, famous for its diving and nature reserve is only 5 miles away and has a lovely little open-air café.

The walled Town of Berwick-upon-Tweed is about 12 miles away and well worth a visit.

Children of all ages will love the petting farm at Conundrum – just before you get to Berwick (the food is good there too).
