Lovely beachside apartment, with uninterrupted views across to the Fife coastline. Sleeps 8.
The Gulls is a fantastic beachside self catering holiday home in North Berwick, in one of the most enviable positions on the seafront with uninterrupted sea views across to the Kingdom of Fife. Guests have direct access to the West Beach through a private gate located at the side of the building. Described as 'immaculate and spacious' by our guests, we think the unforgettable views, generously proportioned rooms and great location all make this lovely holiday home; one to return to again and again.
1st Floor: Sitting room: The spacious sitting room has a wonderful view over the West Bay, North Berwick harbour and Craigleith Island in the Firth of Forth. On a clear day the shores of The Kingdom of Fife can been seen and, when night falls, you can still hear the sound of the sea.
Dining room: The dining room has a table which seats 8 and has fine sea views across North Berwick Bay.
Sun Lounge: The sun lounge is probably the main feature of this apartment. This space offers the perfect spot for relaxing and watching the constant changes on the coastline. In warmer weather there is a small patio off the sun lounge, offering the chance to sit in privacy, yet close to the beach.

Quiet, but close to High Street
Great location on the beach, 2 minutes walk to the High Street. Clean, comfortable and spacious (4 people) with a lovely sun room overlooking the beach and harbour. Parking is a bit tight, but we managed even with a large van. Only criticisms are lack of soaps/shampoos for the showers and no paper towels/tissues supplied. However, this seems to be the norm in Scotland and may be just my North American expectations not being met. Not a big deal, just something to be aware of.
