About half a mile due east of Fair Winds and within comfortable walking distance is the historic village of Coldingham. Coldingham is a vibrant village, framed around the 12th century Priory and lying within a short walk of Coldingham Sands. The area has been designated as an AONB (Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty). Although nearby Berwick upon Tweed offers an excellent range of national supermarkets and services, the Village of Coldingham has a fantastic local Spar, a well-regarded butcher, two lively pubs and a fish and chip shop which would all love your support. The village also offers a post office, an antiques shop, and a very well-regarded primary school. Further schooling is on the doorstep with Eyemouth High School being only a short drive away. Belhaven Hill School in Dunbar and Longridge Towers School near Berwick are both very well thought of public schools in the area.
Fair Winds is within a short drive of the popular Coldingham Sands beach and the dramatic St Abbs Head National Nature Reserve. The village of Reston is also nearby, where the newly constructed Reston Train Station offers a regular service into Edinburgh and is a sub-station of the main East Coastline connecting London to Aberdeen.
There are a number of larger towns near Fair Winds, the closest being Eyemouth which is approximately 4 miles away. Eyemouth is a fishing port with a picturesque harbour and a sandy beach. It has an excellent range of amenities including a Co-op supermarket and a range of local shops including a first-class butcher, home bakery and fishmonger. Leisure facilities include a swimming pool and fitness centre, several public houses, and restaurants and marine activities such as diving.
The historic market town of Berwick upon Tweed lies about 12 miles away, just off the A1, in Northumberland. Berwick houses all the major supermarket chains, good local shopping, a number of historical attractions within its mediaeval walls, numerous restaurants, cafes, the Maltings arts centre and a mainline train station which provides a regular service up and down the country, with London being only a 3 ½ hour journey away.
Country and sporting pursuits are widely available and there are several golf courses within a short drive including Eyemouth, Dunbar, Goswick and Magdalene Fields in Berwick.
Fair Winds offers excellent links to Edinburgh, Newcastle and even London. The A1 provides easy commutable access to Scotland’s capital city and Newcastle.
