Fantastic location - fantastic property - fantastic host

Fraser's Marine Lodge was the perfect place to stay for our short visit to North Berwick. The home itself is spacious, comfortable, tastefully decorated, and included everything we needed for our stay. It is just steps from the beach, the golf course, and all the great restaurants and shops of High Street. Add to that the great views of the sea out the front windows, and there is nothing left to be desired.Andrew was a perfect host, and he took the time before and during our stay to make sure everything was perfect for us. It was. We also appreciated the personal "meet and greet" from his colleague, Gordon. We would love to visit North Berwick again soon, and hope that Fraser's Marine Lodge can be our home-away-from-home once more.

Ideal house with character

What a lovely house in a great location. Fixtures and fittings all high quality. Beds very comfortable and a very well equipped kitchen. It is a short walk from the beach and the high street with independent shops and restaurants.Andrew, the owner, is the most effective communicator we have had the pleasure to encounter. Also, his local manager and cleaning staff exceed expectations. They all did everything they could to make our 4 night stay a pleasure, including a day of red wind wandering. A lovely place to be in a ‘lockdown’.We would certainly recommend Fraser’s Marine Lodge.

Cozy well equipped apartment that felt just like home

Communications with Andrew prior to our arrival were first class. We had a friendly welcome to the property by Gordon who showed us around the apartment. The apartment was cozy and very clean. I don’t think I have stayed at a better equipped rental property. The property is located 2 minutes from North Berwick GC and is at the end of the town’s delightful high street. If you are coming to North Berwick this is the place to stay!

whimsical, magical trip

To say this was a fantastic, magical trip really doesn't do it justice. Andrew and Gordon, our hosts- were impeccable, helpful, professional and friendly. North Berwick is a history lovers paradise. The trains are easy to use and 5 min away from the property. The 'manor' is huge, spotless, has everything you could possibly need to cook, chill, watch a flick, or just have a cup of tea and read. We will be back! 10 out of 10

Lovely property, in excellent conditions and with plenty of amenities. The location is close to the beach, golf course, shops and restaurants, all within a few minute’s walk. The rooms are spacious and the view out of the big bay window is endlessly changing. Edinburgh is also an easy train ride away, with the station close by.

Great property

Just a short level walk to the centre of North Berwick. On the main road but no issue with road noise. Bath has low sides with rails and a non slip service so ideal for younger children or older members of your party. Car parking not the best (but we were warned before hand) but the seagulls took a great liking to my car for target practice. Comfortable beds and everything you need was there.

Heaven

North Berwick is my favorite place in the world and this house only makes it better. It’s beautiful inside and out and filled with thoughtful touches. I stayed for a month and spent mornings writing, facing one of the front windows to look out at the sea. Afternoons were for exploring Edinburgh (25 minutes by train—5 min walk to the station) or for roaming around North Berwick. A fun High Street, some great galleries and shops (I bought 3 cute linen dresses!) and restaurants. Now I’m in Belfast, and when I look out my hotel window, all I can see is the view from the living room of the Marine Lodge. Andrew was a total pleasure to work with and made the whole thing really easy. I can’t wait to come back!

A Wonderful Week in North Berwick

We were a party of 4 adults age 50+. From the moment we made the booking until the day we left, everything went like clockwork. The owner was in regular contact with useful local information and advice between the time we booked until our arrival. The property didn't disappoint, either. The rooms are all spacious with high ceilings, the beds are very comfortable (very important to us), the wet room was lovely, and the kitchen facilities were all modern and what you would need for a week away. There were TV's in 4 of the rooms, but we chose to have a break from watching TV while we were there. The property location is excellent - just five minutes walk to the beach, the golf course, the shops, the nearest restaurant, and the nearest pub. It was also only 8-10 minutes walk to the railway station. Very well located, indeed. We enjoyed some nice day trips in the car, going south to Berwick-upon-Tweed, and then onward to Bamburgh where we enjoyed the beach and the castle. We also did a day trip into Edinburgh on the train which was really easy. The trains were prompt and pleasantly clean and tidy. Overall, a most enjoyable week in North Berwick for the four of us. We would definitely recommend the property, as well as the area. We'll probably be back next year.

Golfers paradise

Staying at Marine lodge was the best choice in our minds. From the time we booked it, Andrew was always on hand to answer questions and provide tips on the local area. Upon arrival we were given a warm and very happy welcome by Gordon, he was also happy to answer any questions we had whilst staying. The complimentary decanter of Scottish water went down a treat on the first evening :) The apartment itself is of a very high standard of finish and fully equipped throughout. We loved the fridge! All the rooms are of large proportions which gave the four of us plenty of room to relax. Our golfing gear does take up room but the porch alone swallowed our clubs with space to spare :) North Berwick itself provided us with a good selection of eateries from fine dining to food pub food and also a well serviced town when it comes to supermarkets. Suffice to say that Marine lodge should be your choice as it will be ours the next time we visit North Berwick.

Great Location - 5 star apartment

Marine Lodge is truly fabulous. This was our first visit and nothing disappointed. The apartment is furnished and decorated to a high standard and has so many nice touches. It’s the perfect base for exploring NB. You are within walking distance for everything. Close by are all the shops and restaurants on the high street and you are minutes away from the beach. The massive lounge and front bedroom both have sea views to enjoy. The wood burning stove was great as we visited in January when the weather was really chilly. Andrew and Gordon were superb from start to finish to ensure everything went smoothly. Definitely worth a visit if you are looking for five star accommodation in the heart of NB! We hope to return soon.

Joanna & Andrew love North Berwick , its beaches and golf. Andrew spent his happy childhood holidays in North Berwick and 55 years later the couple still, attracted to its unique charm, were able to return to invest in this glorious Victorian property.
