This pretty little village developed after the establishment of the Abbey of Coldingham in the seventh century. The original Abbey was lost in a fire but the village remained a religious centre and a Benedictine priory was founded by King Edgar of Scotland in 1098. The remains of the priory can still be seen today.
Coldingham Sands is an award-winning beach. During the summer months the beach is patrolled by Life Guards. Coldingham Bay is also a popular surfing destination. For those who prefer walking, the spectacular Berwickshire Coastal path passes by the village.
Visitors to Coldingham will find a thriving business community offering a variety of services within the village.
