Area Insights
Swallowdene is positioned on the southern edge of the charming and pretty hamlet of Horndean. It is a quiet hamlet enjoying a semi-rural situation, close to the popular Northumberland village of Norham and the Borders village of Paxton.
Norham which is only a couple of miles to the south, offers a wholesome community and a wide range of events and clubs from fishing on the Tweed to a Historical society. A full list of events and clubs can be found on the Norham Life website (https://www.norhamlife.co.uk). Although nearby Berwick upon Tweed offers an excellent range of national supermarkets and services, the Village of Norham has a fantastic local shop, regionally renowned butcher, baker, two friendly pubs and even a gun shop which would all love your support. The village also offers a very highly-regarded primary school, a doctor’s surgery on the village green, a daily postal van and a very well attended fish and chip van every Thursday evening.
Eight miles east of Horndean 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. There is also schooling for all ages including the well-regarded private school of Longridge Towers.

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 at Ladykirk and Norham.
