Some sporting activities include:- sea fishing; surfing (at Bamburgh and Coldingham); mountain biking; shooting; superb hillwalking; golf; horse riding (with excellent riding nearby including a national hunt) and horse racing enjoyed at both Kelso and Musselburgh. In addition, there are a range of stunning beaches on the east coast including Cocklawburn and Spittal, just south of Berwick town, and numerous golden sand beaches from Bamburgh to Alnmouth and beyond. The scenery is both diverse and varied from the beaches to rugged cliffs, then the fertile farmland of East Berwickshire right up to the upland expanses of the Lammermuirs.
Edinburgh is easily accessed from Sanson Seal by the A1 which takes just over 1 hr 15 minutes by car and is extremely well served by both Newcastle International airports and Edinburgh airports. Also so too is Berwick served well by both local public transport and main line trains connecting Berwick to Edinburgh and London Kings cross by direct trains on the East Coast Main line.
