Duns Pavilion Lodge
During our visit to Scotland, we rented a quaint little cottage on the Duns Castle Estate. It's part of the town's historic walking tour and we often had people walking by our little house as they marveled at its castle-like structure. On the outside, it resembles a tiny little castle, complete with crenelated top! In 1770, this was constructed as part of the massive gate structure that kept the castle grounds secure. Now, it's a modest little one bedroom vacation rental ... and if you're Sensitive enough, you'll be able to tell, that this holiday house comes complete with a resident ghost! Could it be the confused spirit of a young soldier from long ago, or is this a gate-keeper who still patrols the ramparts? We don't know. But footsteps ascending the creaking staircase after midnight, would make YOU wonder too!

Places to see in ( Eyemouth - UK )
Eyemouth is a small town and civil parish in Berwickshire, in the Scottish Borders area of Scotland. It is 2 miles east of the main north-south A1 road and just 8 miles north of Berwick-upon-Tweed. Eyemouth is very nearly due east of Glasgow. In fact Eyemouth's latitude is 55.8691°N, whilst Glasgow's is 55.8642°N, so Eyemouth is about 600 yards further north.
The town's name comes from its location at the mouth of the Eye Water. The Berwickshire coastline consists of high cliffs over deep clear water with sandy coves and picturesque harbours. A fishing port, Eyemouth holds a yearly Herring Queen Festival. Notable buildings in the town include Gunsgreen House and a cemetery watch-house built to stand guard against the Resurrectionists (body snatchers). Many of the features of a traditional fishing village are preserved in the narrow streets and 'vennels', giving shelter from the sea and well-suited to the smuggling tradition of old.
Eyemouth is not far from the small villages of Ayton, Reston, St. Abbs, Coldingham and Burnmouth. The coast offers opportunities for birdwatching, walking, fishing and diving. Accommodation includes several hotels, B&Bs and a holiday park. The geology of the area shows evidence of folding that led James Hutton to announce that the surface of the earth had changed dramatically over the ages.
Other places of interest nearby include the fortifications of Berwick-upon-Tweed also designed by Sir Richard Lee, and its military museum, Paxton House, the Union Bridge and the Chain Bridge Honey Farm, and scores of quiet country roads skirting the Cheviot Hills, frequently snow-capped in winter. Many visitors pause on their journey on the A1 to photograph their arrival in Scotland or their departure to England at the border crossing. Though the border has significance to many visitors, most local people think of themselves as 'Borderers' rather than as Scots or English. Nearby the border is a nature trail through the mysteriously named 'Conundrum' Farm. Typical Border towns and villages, such as Kelso, Grantshouse, Abbey St Bathans, Cove, Cockburnspath (pronounced 'coburnspath' or 'copath' by locals), Cornhill, Wooler, Morpeth, Alnmouth and Alnwick are all within easy reach for day trips from Eyemouth. Near Chirnside stood Ninewells House, since demolished, where David Hume, whom many regard as foremost among the philosophers of the Scottish Enlightenment, if not the greatest of all time, spent much of his life.

The complete Berwickshire Coastal Path ©
Welcome to Rucksack Rose - The Outdoors Channel. Read more at
The Berwickshire Coastal Path stretches for some 30m / 48km, from Berwick upon Tweed to the south, over the English / Scottish Border, through Burnmouth and Eyemouth, around St Abb’s Head Nature Reserve as far as Cockburnspath. The route provides some superb hiking which includes dramatic cliff top scenery, stacks, ruined castles, fishing harbours, a smuggler’s bothy and St Abb’s Head nature reserve, which is notable for its birdlife. The northern end of the route links up with the Southern Upland Way near Cockburnspath.
Berwickshire has some of the highest, longest and most dramatic cliffs on the British coast, which make walking this path a challenging and dramatic experience. I completed the walk in 3.5 days in mid March and it was my first wild camped trail. You can find a full trip report and kit list in the Trails section of my blog.
Wherever you go stay safe, check the weather, plan ahead, let people know where you are going, take maps & compass with your gps and follow the countryside or access codes for where you are.
