Area Insights

 

Horncliffe is situated on the northern edge of Northumberland, close to the market town of Berwick upon Tweed. Surrounded by beautiful countryside, it lies on the south bank of the River Tweed where it has two salmon fishing beats with ghillies. It is home to a popular village pub, the Fishers Arms which has just been bought by the local community who are refurbishing it ready for its reopening, a B&B called The Old Church and the Horncliffe Memorial Hall which hosts multitudes of activities for the whole community. Two bus stops connect it to other towns such as Berwick Upon Tweed. Another charming addition to the surrounding area of this village is the Union Chain Bridge which is the oldest surviving vehicular chain bridge in the world.

Five miles east of Horncliffe 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. The popular Longridge Towers School is 2 miles east of Horncliffe.

The region offers a range of popular attractions, including historical castles and villages to explore and a particularly stunning coastline to enjoy. For those who enjoy slightly more challenging walking opportunities, the Northumberland National Park and Cheviot Hills are within a short drive. Permits for fly and bait fishing for trout and coarse fish are available on approximately 2 miles of both banks at Ladykirk and Norham.

Berwick-Upon-Tweed offers a mainline railway station which has regular trains to Edinburgh, Newcastle and London. Both Edinburgh and Newcastle are sub one hour travel time and London is circa 3 hours and 45 minutes. There is also the A1 trunk road which bypasses the town and provides easy access to both north and south respectively. 

The A1 trunk road which is nearby provides easy, commutable access to both Newcastle and Edinburgh. Both cities also offer international airports.
