North Berwick is a very pleasant seaside town in East Lothian, boasting great beaches and coastal scenery, and the Scottish Seabird Centre. It is also home to the 5-star Scottish Seabird Centre, and nearby attractions includes the mighty Tantallon Castle to the east and Dirleton Castle to the west.It is situated on the south shore of the Firth of Forth, approximately 20 miles east-northeast 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.
The name Berwick means "barley farmstead" (bere in Old English means "barley" and wic means "farmstead"). Alternatively, like other place names in Scotland ending in 'wick', this word means 'bay' (Old Norse: vík). The word North was applied to distinguish this Berwick from Berwick-upon-Tweed, which throughout the Middle Ages the Scots called South Berwick. It was recorded as Northberwyk in 1250
North Berwick has breathtaking beaches and general coastal scenery, as well as loads of good places to eat, drink and shop. It's also home to the famous Scottish Seabird Centre, where you can discover more about the local puffins and the world's largest colony of northern gannets.
North Berwick is the most expensive seaside town in Scotland, with an average house price of £401,590. North Berwick, in East Lothian, has been named the best place to live in Scotland. It topped of a list of eight locations across Scotland chosen in the annual Sunday Times Best Places to Live guide.
North Berwick is a very pretty seaside town in East Lothian with attractive beaches and lots of activities for tourists, less than an hours drive from Edinburgh. The two sandy beaches are located on each side of the old pier and they were the reason for North Berwick to become a holiday resort in the 19th century and today it still is. Another reason for tourists to visit the town was the large open swimming pool which was housed on the site of the Scottish Seabird Centre, the pool was closed in 1995.
St Andrews Old Kirk - From a historic point of view North Berwick played an important role for many pilgrims on their way to St. Andrews. The first mention of a port in North Berwick was in 1177. During mediaeval times up to 10,000 pilgrims a year were ferried across the Forth to Earlsferry in fife, en route to St. Andrews. The present harbour is the result of many improvement carried out in the 18th and 19th centuries, often after storm damage. Located in the harbour area are the remains of St. Andrews Old Kirk. Nowadays the porch and remains of walls are left but the church played an important role for the pilgrims in the earlier days.
