Area Insights

Bank House, 24 Main Street is situated in the popular conservation village of Swinton, with its award-winning The Wheatsheaf Hotel, which is only a 5 minute walk from the property. The village further benefits from great walks nearby, a primary school in the village, and a highly regarded fish & chip van that visits the village every Thursday evening. Not only does 24 Main Street offer a large, beautiful South facing garden, but miles of uninterrupted walks around the surrounding countryside.

The nearby village of Norham, which lies on the northern edge of Northumberland is close by and offers a fantastic local shop, regionally renowned butcher, baker, public house and even a gun shop. 11 miles east of Swinton 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 and schooling for all ages.

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.

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