Situation
Horndean Bank is situated almost a mile west of the River Tweed and
the border with England. It is an ideal place from which to explore
this historic and beautiful part of south east Scotland and north east
England. Situated approximately 8 miles to the west of the historic
town of Berwick-upon-Tweed, the Scottish Border towns of Kelso,
Coldstream, Melrose and Jedburgh are all within easy travelling
distance. The Scottish capital of Edinburgh is easily accessible by
train from Berwick-upon-Tweed on the east coast line; the journey
time to London is approximately 3½ hours. On the English side of the
border Northumberland has more castles and fortified houses than
any other English county, including those of Lindisfarne, Bamburgh,
Dunstanburgh, Walkworth and Alnwick. Horndean Bank is therefore
a perfect base for those who enjoy walking, cycling, fishing and golf.
The coast line in this corner of the country is particularly special with
fabulous sandy beaches and amazing wildlife.
Norham, approximately 2 ¾ miles south of Horndean Bank, has a
good range of local services. Berwick-upon-Tweed has a full range of
services; good schooling is available on both sides of the border.
Directions
From Berwick-upon-Tweed and the A1, head west on the B6461.
Approximately 3½ miles west of Paxton, turn left onto a minor road
(sign-posted Horndean). On entering the village, the entrance to
Horndean Bank can be identified by a triangle of grass on the left
hand side and a tarmac drive leading into the property.
