Things To Do

There are 21 golf courses in the Scottish Borders, from Eyemouth in the north, Langholm in the south and Peebles to the west.

There is a Games Room on site which, although fairly basic, has table tennis, darts and a pool table. It is for our guests to use whenever they wish: on a rainy day, to spend time together away from the TV or to burn off excess energy.

Press Mains is an 1,350 acre arable farm which is interspersed by many miles of hard tracks. There are ponds, rivers and woodlands, grass fields and undulating hills. With an abundance of wildlife and birdlife it is the perfect place for nature lovers to explore and enjoy. All we ask is that dogs are kept on leads near livestock.

Close to the coast, walkers can enjoy a number of coastal paths and beaches. St Abbs Head, a dramatic coastal nature reserve is a few miles away and the Lammermuir and Cheviot Hills are also close by for those who want a more adventurous walk.

There is varied bird life at Press Mains and further afield are the seabirds of St Abbs Head and the Farne Islands which can be visited by boat.

Press Mains is on the main Sustrans 76 cycle route. There are also many miles of other cycle routes and quiet country roads to explore. We are happy to arrange secure storage for bicycles.

St. Abbs and the surrounding area north of the Berwick-upon-Tweed, encompasses some of the very best diving in the UK. Eyemouth has many dive sites just offshore like Hairy Ness, Rumfauds, the President wreck, Little Leeds Bay and Conger Reef. These are very popular and can be access by local boats or from the shore. At Press Mains we can arrange storage facilities for diving equipment.
