The beautiful Baronial red sandstone Ayton Castle sits proudly in its well-tended grounds and is open to the public during the summer months, while the local pub and bowling club are perfect for socialising with the local community. The village has excellent access to the A1 and lies within a few miles of Reston train station which allows easy commuting to Edinburgh to the north and Newcastle to the south, while direct bus routes to Eyemouth, Duns and Berwick-upon-Tweed, with its mainline railway station, provide great public transportation links.
