Yes. North Berwick station is a short walk from both homes, about 900m as the crow flies. Trains run direct to Edinburgh Waverley in around half an hour, and the line ends here, so there’s no changing.

The beach, harbour, shops and restaurants are all on foot, so you won’t need a car once you’re here.

North Berwick introduced Controlled Parking Zones at the beginning of June, so much of the town centre is now pay-and-display.

The car parks closest to the apartment (Imperial and East Car Park) have charges that apply from 8:30am–6:00pm, with a maximum stay of 5 hours and no return within 90 minutes (payable at the meter or via the RingGo app). If you’re planning to be out with the car during the day, many guests find it’s simplest just to pay the maximum £5 daily charge.

Alternatively, we can arrange a 7-day parking permit for your stay for £30 if you’d prefer (subject to availability). The permit is valid in all on-street permit bays and saves you having to pay daily parking charges.

There is also free on-street parking outside the Controlled Parking Zones if you don’t mind dropping off your luggage and walking a short distance back from the car.

Please note that parking availability and enforcement is outside of our control. If you’d like to check the details yourself, the latest information is available on the East Lothian Council website.

Unfortunately, we do not allow guests to bring pets.

Children and babies are very welcome.

We have a travel cot and a high chair available if you’re bringing little ones.

Please let us know before your arrival if you’d like these set up so everything is ready for you.

We also have children’s cutlery and crockery provided in the kitchen.

Bed linen and bath towels are provided.

We don’t provide beach towels, so please remember to bring your own if you’re planning a day at the beach.
