Area Insights
Strathlea in the hamlet of Thornton is a particularly lovely, characterful family home situated on the northern edge of Northumberland. Positioned equidistant between the popular village of Norham, Cornhill and the market town of Berwick upon Tweed, Strathlea is within easy reach of Berwick’s east coast mainline train station offering services to the south and the north. West of Thornton, the village of Norham lies on the banks of the River Tweed and is framed around a pretty village green. Norham is a thriving village with a wholesome community offering a wide range of events and clubs from fishing on the Tweed to a Historical society. A full list of events and clubs can be found on the Norham Life website (). Although nearby Berwick upon Tweed offers an excellent range of nations supermarkets and services, the Village of Norham has a fantastic local shop, regionally renowned butcher, baker, public house and even a gun shop which would all love your support. The village also offers a very well-regarded primary school, a doctor’s surgery on the village green, a daily postal van and a very well attended fish and chip van every Thursday evening. South west of Thornton is the village of Cornhill which offers an exceptional local shop and post office stocking local produce, and the stylish Collingwood Arms hotel that has informal and formal dining, afternoon teas and accommodation. Six miles north east of Thornton is the nearby market town of Berwick upon Tweed which has further amenities and services including a wealth of cafes and restaurants, the Maltings Theatre and Cinema, a good choice of doctors and dental surgeries as well as a local hospital. Berwick also has an east coast main line railway station with regular trains to Edinburgh and London and schooling for all ages. The region offers a range of popular attractions, including historical castles and villages to explore and a particularly stunning coastline to enjoy. For those who enjoy slightly more challenging walking opportunities, the Northumberland National Park and Cheviot Hills are within a short drive. Permits for fly and bait fishing for trout and coarse fish are available on approximately 2 miles of both banks at Ladykirk and Norham. The A1 trunk road which is nearby provides easy, commutable access to both Newcastle and Edinburgh. Both cities also offer international airports.<br /><br />
