As England's most northerly town, Berwick-Upon-Tweed changed hands fourteen times during the Scottish attempt at gaining control of the border territories. Since then, Berwick left its violent past behind and is now a lovely, peaceful little settlement, with its great Elizabethan walls enclosing a labyrinth of cobbled streets, shops, pubs, restaurants and picturesque buildings. Walks along the city walls provide spectacular views over the nearby coast and river estuary. The Maltings Arts Centre hosts a wide array of cultural events, including theatre, cinema and music whilst fishing, golf and riding facilities are plentiful and close. The local leisure centre also boasts a great swimming pool with waves and flumes - the prefect activity for when the weather isn't as good as it should be (though if you prefer the real thing, the sandy beaches of Spittal are only two miles away.) With excellent public transport, day trips to Newcastle and Edinburgh are easy, making Berwick a wonderful location for those wishing to explore a little further afield.

Northumberland is a heady combination of fishing villages, market towns, sandy beaches, magnificent castles and historic Hadrian's Wall, tied together by beautiful countryside and abundant wildlife.

Location of the property was perfect.<BR>Mr Burgess, Glasgow, South Lanarkshire<BR>October 2013<BR><BR>,Very well kept house, with lots of nice touches. Felt like home for a week, brilliant location.




Would not hesitate to book again.<BR>Mrs Devine, Appleby-in-Westmorland, Cumbria<BR>September 2013<BR><BR>,The property is of very generous size and proportions, also a bit quirky and unusual, lovely big windows and great views to the river. Berwick is a nice town, some good shops and restaurants, and a brilliant base for exploring the coast, even without a car, regular buses make it easy to travel around in Northumberland and Scotland (don't miss St. Abbs).<BR>Dr Trinder, Vienna, <BR>August 2013<BR><BR>,Lovely views from the drawing room of the house over the water and the three Berwick bridges. Berwick is very convenient for walking in Northumberland, seeing the Borders, Edinburgh by train and Holy Island.<BR>Rev Bond, Doncaster, South Yorkshire<BR>February 2013<BR><BR>
