Lovely big house with fantastic views
The house is in a very quiet residencial street 25 minutes walk along the golf course or the beach to North Berwick. It is elevated giving amazing views to the golf course and the beach. It is a comfortable house with good heating. We will return.

Perfect Location and Wonderful House
St. Aidans: Our stay at St. Aidans exceeded expectations. The house is far larger than any pictures reveal, and the amenities are plentiful. The view from the front of the house overlooking North Berick Golf Club is wonderful. Being able to easily walk into town adds to the perfect setting and location. The house is perfect for 4-5 golfers or a few couples. Know that when I next travel to Norther Berwick, St. Aidans is where I plan to stay.
