Hiking

The small lake is not directly accessible, but is beautifully situated. We were able to observe a pair of swans here.

Hiking

A long thin loch managed by the National Trust for Scotland as part of the St Abb's Head estate. The loch is formed in the fault line between the hard igneous rock at St Abb's Head and the softer sedimentary rock inland. It was a marshy area, but a small dam created around 1900 held the water back and created the loch. Now it's an important inland bird sanctuary.

Great little place to visit and walk along, hard to get to the water though.
