Situation
3 Hoprig Square is situated in a beautiful rural setting, on the periphery of a pretty hamlet, a mile and a half south-west of Cockburnspath. The countryside surrounding Cockburnspath is one of the genuinely rural parts of United Kingdom and despite its close proximity to Edinburgh it has a low population and can therefore offer a quality of life that is becoming increasingly rare. Cockburnspath is minutes away from a variety of fully accessible beautiful beaches.
Cockburnspath offers facilities including a nursery and primary school, a community village shop, a church, a bowling club and a number of thriving community groups. There is also a very well attended village hall which hosts a variety of weekly events such as Bridge, Coffee mornings, community café, sporting events and Toddler’s playgroup, to name just a few.
About 10 miles north-west of the property is the friendly town of Dunbar which offers an excellent range of amenities including large supermarkets, local shops, cafes, restaurants, pubs and professional services. There are excellent sports and water facilities, Dunbar Leisure Centre with swimming pool and gymnasium, Foxlake with water adventure courses, 2 golf courses, as well as a range of sports fields and associated athletics clubs. Dunbar also has a well-respected and successful Prep School called Belhaven Hill School (www.belhavenhill.com) as well as Dunbar Grammar School. East Links Family Park offers fantastic family entertainment and the nearby beaches of East Lothian offer miles of sandy beaches to explore. The mainline train service provides regular links into Edinburgh, with a journey time to the city centre of just 20 minutes.
To the south east of 3 Hoprig Square is the well-known market town of Berwick upon Tweed. Berwick is a vibrant town, with a good range of services and retailers and a number of hotels, restaurants, pubs and a wine bar. There is the popular Maltings Theatre and Cinema, as well as a regular market and a number of galleries and arts and crafts shops. Berwick also offers a main line railway station providing a fast link to London Kings Cross (3h 39mins), Newcastle (45 mins) and Leeds (2h 19 mins). Berwick also offers additional private schooling at Longridge Towers School (www.lts.org.uk). The Swan Centre in Berwick-upon-Tweed provides swimming, a gymnasium, squash and indoor bowling.
Beyond the local area is a range of popular attractions including historic castles and villages dotted along the outstandingly beautiful coastline. 20 minutes east of the house lie the popular villages of Coldingham and St. Abbs with its National Nature Reserve. Its coastal waters are renowned for the abundance and diversity of marine life thereby attracting divers from throughout the United Kingdom and abroad. Country and sporting pursuits are readily available, including hill walking, salmon and trout fishing, hunting and shooting. Golf is available locally throughout East Lothian and the Borders.
The area is also well serviced in terms of transport links with the A1 trunk road nearby and Edinburgh airport offering regular flights to London and a variety of domestic and foreign destinations.
