The 10 Best Things to do Good for Couples in North Berwick, Scotland

December 22, 2021 Joeann Galban

North Berwick (/nɔːrθ ˈbɛrɪk/; Scottish Gaelic: Bearaig a Tuath) is a seaside town and former royal burgh in East Lothian, Scotland. It is situated on the south shore of the Firth of Forth, approximately 25 miles (40 km) north-east of Edinburgh. North Berwick became a fashionable holiday resort in the nineteenth century because of its two sandy bays, the East (or Milsey) Bay and the West Bay, and continues to attract holidaymakers. Golf courses at the ends of each bay are open to visitors.

GoForth Tours

Nobody knows their home turf like a local. And nobody knows the North Berwick area better than GoForth. The "North Neuk"s twenty miles of rock skerries embacing long beaches has it all-towering castles and elegant estates, birdsong peace and teeming wildlife, supersonic airliners and vintage cars. Be prepared for something memorably different.

Come and enjoy the stunning views and scenery in some of Scotland's best countryside on horseback. There is minimum traffic as we only ride on private land. Many of our horses are home-bred, with a range to suit all levels and abilities. The horses are trustworthy school masters which allows beginners, nervous riders and children to gain experience and confidence. We also cater for the more capable riders as we have a large range of experienced competition horses to suit each individual.We also have pony days where children can enjoy looking after and caring for a pony whilst learning true horsemanship. Keep looking at website or facebook page for updates on pony days.We can also offer this experience to adults who have missed out on this in their junior years whether it be individual or groups! If you have a young child wishing to have a go then we also offer half an hour rides.

5 of us, ranging in age from 7 to 57 went on an hour long ride at Seacliff Stables. We had 1 total beginner (7 year old) 2 with a little experience and 2 more experienced riders. Seacliff matched us perfectly with wonderful horses and 1 pony for the 7 year old. Gorgeous horses and so well behaved! The scenery is absolutely spectacular!! I wish we could have ridden here all day! They took us through the country side, beautiful fields overlooking castle ruins and incredible views of Bass Rock, then onto the beach where we trotted the horses a bit. It was a simply wonderful morning with the sweetest and friendliness staff who took such good care of us! I highly recommend booking with Seacliff Stables!

North Berwick Law

Reviewed By dakiro - Edinburgh, United Kingdom

Fantastic place to visit and have a walk. Managed to walk to the top in 40 minutes, really slowly. I think you would benefit from walking around it first and then walking to the top. Really nice area and you can see a lot from the very top. Very windy at the time, much more than at the bottom - maybe not so suitable for a smallish child for safety reasons - would need to be careful so the wind does not push them off.

A real distillery that produces multi award winning NB Gin, vodka and rum offering a luxury visitor experience and The Cellar Door shop that has great cellar door prices on all products!

Reviewed By brianmX8418JA - Edinburgh, United Kingdom

The NB Distillery tour and gin tasting was a great 75 minutes. We were met by very friendly and knowledgeable guides. They told us the interesting story of the creation and the short history of the distillery , which included a tour of the production facility. We then enjoyed a tasting session of their excellent products (three gins, a vodka and one of their three rums), before buying some "souvenirs" and departing with broad smiles on our faces!

We enjoyed a rib boat trip with Robin skippering and the very friendly and informative Aislinn. We saw many seabirds as expected but also saw several pods of dolphins and seals. The guide was very good with local information and facts as well as pointing out all the wildlife. A great tour with plenty to see.

Tantallon Castle

Tantallon Castle is now open and we are delighted to welcome you back. Booking in advance is essential. Find out more and book at restarthistory.scot. Set on the edge of the cliffs, looking out to the Bass Rock, this formidable castle was a stronghold of the Douglas family. Ascend Tantallon’s towers for spectacular views of the Bass Rock and to watch gannets plunge into the North Sea. Then descend into the depths of a particularly grim pit prison. The castle was home to the powerful Red Douglas dynasty, which often clashed with the Crown. It was besieged by both James IV and James V but was ultimately destroyed by Oliver Cromwell’s troops in a siege of 1651. Many artefacts are displayed to help tell its dramatic stories.

A hefty walk along the beach from North Berwick (watch the tides and check your path or stay on the road) or a bus ride from the town, this was not to be missed. Views out onto crashing waves and masses of seabirds out by the Bass Rock: this was an awesome spot! The red castle walls are foreboding, majestic and even with some restrictions for the pandemic there was access to the battlements. Staff on hand were helpful and friendly- more than making up for having to book beforehand (a minor irritation), information boards were, well, informative, and on the whole a really enjoyable afternoon. I’m not a huge fan of cafes at such sites- but Tantallon, if you’re thinking about it, even a stall in the car park would be welcome...
