Tower Farm Holidays

Tower Farm is located close to Cockburnspath village on the stunning Berwickshire coastline, only 50 minutes south of Edinburgh. It is an ideal base to explore the Scottish Borders, East Lothian and Northumbria.

Tower Farm Holiday houses are located on the south east coast of Scotland, lying in the county of Berwickshire, in the Scottish Borders. We have two large self catering holiday houses available for short breaks midweek and weekends, as well as weekly and fortnightly holidays.

Red Gauntlet and the Farmhouse have 5 bedrooms each and can sleep 10 people in each.  The houses can be booked separately or together allowing large groups and parties of 20 to holiday.  The houses are popular for family gatherings, birthday and anniversary celebrations, reunions and special parties because of the large size of the bedrooms, the good communial space and the Farmhouse has a dining room that can seat 20 people with all the crockery, cutlery and glassware for a three course dinner. So everyone can get together for a celebratory meal; either cooked by yourself or you could get help from local outside caterers.
