Just spent 4 nights in this cosy apartment overlooking the sea.. The apartment had everything we needed for a quiet get away from it all holiday. St Abbs is beautiful and unspoilt with fab walks from the door of the apartment. We didn’t use our car at all whilst we were there. StAbbs head has stunning scenery ,dramatic cliffs , and views to the North , a great place for birdwatching. There’s a lovely beach at Coldingham bay,, 10 minutes walk from the apartment. Cliff top walk to Eyemouth for fish n chips is lovely too. We enjoyed watching the seal in the harbour . Ebbscarr cafe is nice for lunch or coffee and a cake .If you love walks , fresh air and wildlife this is a great place to have a holiday.
