Merchant's House, Eyemouth Review (sleeps 11)
Merchant’s House, Eyemouth

 

We discovered a lovely new place by the coast, just over the border in Scotland recently. It’s steeped in history and full of character, perfect for a weekend away as it’s less than 1.5 hours from Newcastle.



Merchant’s House (aka Gunsgreen House) in Eyemouth is a historic building in a pretty little fishing port just north of Berwick-upon-Tweed, and is more than big enough for family get-togethers - it sleeps 11!

Alnwick Garden & Lilidorei Light Trail Review & Tips

 This post is based on a visit in November 2024. Information and events do change over time so it's important to check with venues direct for the most up to date and accurate info when booking. We paid for this experience ourselves but there are AD affiliate links in the post. 


Alnwick Garden & Lilidroei Light Trail Review & Tips


I've visited lots of light trails in my life and I have to say, Alnwick Garden's is fantastic and definitely one of the best value light trails in the North East. Your ticket allows you access to 2 light trails for the price of 1 and you can visit both Alnwick Garden and Lilidorei's winter lights on the same evening with just one ticket.

Seaburn Playground Guide

Seaburn Playground Guide


Seaburn Playground opened late 2024 and it's one I will definitely be adding to my list of best playgrounds in the North East. 


It's located in Seaburn, just behind the Seaburn Inn, Prego and STACK so there are plenty of places to stop for food and drink afterwards.
