Area Insights
The Heather Patch is positioned on the edge of the popular conservation village of Swinton, with its award-winning The Wheatsheaf Hotel, which is only a 5 minute walk from the property. The village further benefits from great walks nearby, a primary school in the village, and a highly regarded fish & chip van that visits the village every Thursday evening. Not only does The Heather Patch offer a large, beautiful West facing garden but miles of uninterrupted walks around the surrounding countryside.
The nearby village of Norham, which lies on the northern edge of Northumberland is close by and offers a fantastic local shop, regionally renowned butcher, baker, public house and even a gun shop. 11 miles east of Swinton is the nearby market town of Berwick upon Tweed which has further amenities and services including a wealth of cafes and restaurants, the Maltings Theatre and Cinema, a good choice of doctors and dental surgeries as well as a local hospital. Berwick also has an east coast main line railway station with regular trains to Edinburgh and London and schooling for all ages.
