      Nice clean place to stay and very quiet. Easy to find just off the A1 and great for Dunbar. Large room with a very large ensuite. Sofa in front of the TV. Overall very spacious and lots of fresh air in the gardens.

Area

Thorntonloch House lies 4 miles to the east of the old fishing town of Dunbar, birthplace of the famous conservationist and author, John Muir.

It is an ideal tranquil and secluded location (without being too remote) for those relaxing "get away from it all" short breaks, perfect for unwinding for a weekend or longer. From our elevated position over Thorntonloch Bay, the house affords superb panoramic views across the North Sea toward St. Abbs marine conservation site.

The Dunbar to Dunglass section of the John Muir Walkway passes within 300 metres, while the Southern Upland Way finishes within approximately 3 kms of the house. If golf is your 'bag', the testing 18 hole Dunbar Golf Club is only a few miles further down the road.

We are easily accessed from the A1 and are only 4 miles from the main east coast railway, providing fast links to Edinburgh and beyond. We are also only 2 miles from Dunglass estate, a popular wedding destination. Broxmouth Park is also very nearby.

The house is both comfortable and spacious throughout and with its sea views, is the perfect place to relax with a coffee and book.
