  Description
Eaglescairnie Mains offers the best of both worlds - warmth and comfort in rural tranquility with stunning views over rolling wooded farmland combined with easy access (30 minutes) to the city of Edinburgh.

Barbara and Michael Williams welcome guests to their beautifully furnished Georgian farmhouse set in the centre of their 350 acre conservation award-winning farm - you can relax, play tennis or explore the farm.

There is just so much to do locally - attractive East Lothian country towns and coastal villages, ruined castles, numerous golf courses, wild heather-covered hills, empty beaches, the Seabird Centre and Bass Rock gannetry, Concorde at the Museum of Flight, Glenkinche whisky distillery (generous tastings!), Roslyn Chapel and of course Edinburgh itself.

Michael's farming system - 'sympathetic farming' - sets out to unite wildlife and landscape conservation with profitable modern agriculture.

Eaglescairnie Mains ia a valuable resource for local farmers, students, school parties and interested groups to see at first hand the benefits, opportunities and practicalities of integrating farming and conservation on a working family farm.

Things to see and do in East Lothian
   
North Berwick Golf Club      View website
I would like to welcome you to The North Berwick Golf Club and to our website. I hope you find these pages helpful and informative.

Our course is a true Links, like St. Andrews, starting in the town and stretching along the shores of the Firth of Forth returning to its origins. Take time to appreciate stunning views over beaches and islands to the hills of Fife as you enjoy a course which features the best of traditional links design. A design created by nature.
 
   
John Muirs Birthplace      View website
John Muir's life and work has inspired people all over the world. Now the Dunbar birthplace of the pioneering conservationist has been transformed into a new visitor attraction. The stunning interpretative centre highlights the work and achievements of this remarkable man.

Born in Dunbar in 1838, John Muir emigrated with his parents to the United States where he campaigned for the preservation of natural environments through his work as an environmentalist, geologist and botanist.
 
   
Dirleton Castle      View website
The village of Dirleton lies two miles west of North Berwick. Set within it and contained by an estate wall is a magnificent garden which the Guinness Book of Records certifies as home to the world's longest herbaceous border.

There is more to Dirleton Gardens than meets the eye. Viewed from the village you can see it contains an attractive domed dovecote. And from some angles you can also catch glimpses of a more substantial structure hiding amongst the trees.

But it takes active exploration to uncover the real secret of Dirleton Gardens. As you make your way through the trees you suddenly find yourself confronted by a remarkable edifice. Dirleton Castle comes into view, perched proudly on a rocky outcrop as improbable as it is impressive.

Your first feeling is that this has to be a fanciful ornament placed here by the designer of the garden as an attractive and ruinous folly. It isn't: what you stumble across in Dirleton Gardens is one of the very best castles in Scotland. If you like gardens, all the better. But even if you don't, this is still an absolutely must-visit castle: fascinating and beautiful, and far more complex than it at first appears.
 
   
Scottish Seabird Centre      View website
In a stunning location overlooking the sea and sandy beaches of North Berwick, you'll enjoy a great day out at the award-winning 5 Star Scottish Seabird Centre! With its exciting Discovery Centre and amazing live cameras, boat trips, Gift Shop and Cafe with open decking over the sea, there's something for everyone to enjoy.
 
   
Tantallon Castle      View website
A formidable stronghold set atop cliffs on the Firth of Forth, Tantallon Castle was the seat of the Douglas Earls of Angus, one of the most powerful baronial families in Scotland.

Tantallon served as a noble fortification for more than three centuries and endured three sieges.

Visitors can enjoy wild flowers in season and touch the replica cannon. Refreshments are available in the visitor centre.
 
   
Dunbar Golf Club      View website
Dunbar East Links is situated on the estuary of the Firth of Forthc – a mixture inland turf and links on a slither of land along the coast. The Old Deer Park wall spans the course, the ninth features the Barns Ness lighthouse and a ruined building known as The Vaults borders the 14th green. The closing stretch follows the beach. Oliver Cromwell's army camped there before the Battle of Dunbar in 1650 and a form of golf was first played there shortly afterwards and the Dunbar Golfing Society was formed in 1794. The original 15 holes were designed by Old Tom Morris with an additional three holes added in 1880. The course measures 6426 yards S.S.S. 71 and has hosted many tournaments including the Scottish Amateur Championship, Scottish Professional and the Scottish Boys' Championship.

You will then be met by your guide and taken out on tour round the production area of the distillery where you will learn how to make the water of life. To finish your tour you are welcomed into the bar for a dram of Glenkinchie 12 Year Old Single Malt Whisky.
