Top 10 Things to do Good for a Rainy Day in North Berwick, Scotland

January 9, 2022 Janette Largent

North Berwick (/nɔːrθ ˈbɛrɪk/; Scottish Gaelic: Bearaig a Tuath) is a seaside town and former royal burgh in East Lothian, Scotland. It is situated on the south shore of the Firth of Forth, approximately 25 miles (40 km) north-east of Edinburgh. North Berwick became a fashionable holiday resort in the nineteenth century because of its two sandy bays, the East (or Milsey) Bay and the West Bay, and continues to attract holidaymakers. Golf courses at the ends of each bay are open to visitors.

Coastal Communities Museum

The Coastal Communities Museum opened in 2013. Each year the museum features a new exhibition, which generally starts-off at Easter and runs throughout the calendar year until the end of November, although check out the opening days as this varies according to the month. The museum has much to offer both adults and children. Mums and dads may be interested in some local history or gaining knowledge, while kids maybe looking forward to a fun visit, with things to do. The museum is managed and run by a team of volunteers, who rely on donations from the visiting public along with other grants to help sustain its development. Once your tour of the exhibition is complete why not purchase a Trail Leaflet and see where it takes you!

NB Distillery

A real distillery that produces multi award winning NB Gin, vodka and rum offering a luxury visitor experience and The Cellar Door shop that has great cellar door prices on all products!

The NB Distillery tour and gin tasting was a great 75 minutes. We were met by very friendly and knowledgeable guides. They told us the interesting story of the creation and the short history of the distillery , which included a tour of the production facility. We then enjoyed a tasting session of their excellent products (three gins, a vodka and one of their three rums), before buying some "souvenirs" and departing with broad smiles on our faces!

A fantastic place to visit. We thoroughly enjoyed the visit, Concorde is spectacular but there are lots of other things to see with friendly knowledgeable staff and interesting videos to watch in the main areas. Our boys loved the assault course,we had lovely cakes and scones in the cafe and the whole place felt very clean and safe under COVID rules. Definitely a place to visit!

This is a wonderful cafe. Called in for coffee and so impressed with service, ambience and scones that came back for a super platter for lunch. Tailor made to suit a veggie and a carnivore. Staff of all ages were pleasant, friendly and helpful. Very dog friendly. Lots of shopping opps for food, but not interested in that.

Reviewed By G1218ROjohns - Scotland, United Kingdom

Very friendly local pub. Great prices. Our staff member on our visit was very attentive. We had table service due to Covid. Sanatising was excellent (we watched as several tables cleared). Track and Trace was working too with our details being recorded. A fair selection of gins (if you like that tipple).
