LOCAL AREA
Highwood House sits in a hamlet called Longridge, just outside Berwick upon Tweed, England's most northerly market town. The property is ideal for a family with children at Longridge Towers School as it used to be part of the college, making the daily commute safe and easy.
Berwick upon Tweed which is about 3 miles due east of Highwood House is famous for its stunning architecture, has a wide selection of amenities and is well serviced with local and national shops, five national supermarkets and further schooling for all ages. Berwick also has a selection of leisure and sports clubs, banks, public houses, restaurants and The Maltings theatre and cinema which offers daily shows and movies. There is a main line railway station which has regular trains to both Edinburgh, Newcastle and London, both Edinburgh and Newcastle are sub one hour travel time and London is circa 3 hours 45 minutes. There is also the A1 trunk road which bypasses the town and provides easy access to both north and south respectively.
The local area has a wide range of popular attractions and activities including Northumberland and Berwickshire's rugged coastlines of unspoilt beaches and beautiful landscapes. Berwick upon Tweed's historic Elizabethan walls and pier are nearby, while Lindisfarne National Nature Reserve, Bamburgh Castle and the ancient Border towns of Coldstream, Kelso and Melrose are within easy reach. Country and sporting pursuits are also readily available, including hill walking, salmon and trout fishing, riding, hunting and shooting. Golf is available locally, nearby courses include Magdalene Fields at Berwick, Goswick and Eyemouth. Swimming, gym, squash and indoor bowling facilities exist at the Berwick Sports and Leisure in Berwick-upon-Tweed.
Despite Highwood House's proximity to both Edinburgh and Newcastle, the area has a low population and can therefore offer a quality of life that is becoming increasingly rare.
