National Trust - Farne Islands
Nature preserve
👍👍 Excellent trip with Serenity Tours, nearly three hours with an hour on the Inner Farne island which is free to land on for National Trust members. I only had my phone camera but I was amazed how close we could actually get to the nesting birds; so an expensive super zoom camera wasn't really necessa...

Muir of Dinnet National Nature Reserve image

Muir of Dinnet National Nature Reserve
Nature preserve
👍👍 Beautiful walks around this area. However, if you're looking for the hidden waterfall it's on the red trail and do not go up the hill to follow the trail around, go straight forwards. Then there's some rocks to climb over the water and you go through the cliffs where it comes out. It is very beautif...

Isle of May National Nature Reserve
Nature preserve
👍👍 I visited my friend in North Berwick and he suggested a boat trip out to the 'Isle Of May'. We had to arise at silly-o-clock (for a Sunday) to catch the small boat, there were 6 others on our trip. The 45 minute journey was sublime, it was a smooth crossing, I felt my stress levels just melt away. O...

Corrie Fee
Nature preserve
👍👍 Fantastic walk up from the rangers base up to Corrie Fee. The trails are well marked out and the going is fairly easy - we walked with two children (5 and 8) and they made the walk up without issue. There are little informations posts dotted along the track which kept the kids interested with facts...

Reekie Linn Waterfall image

Reekie Linn Waterfall
Nature preserve
👍👍 This is worth the drive up to see it, so if in the area please make the effort. The path is short but as frequently mentioned it isn’t a walk for the faint hearted. The drop builds the nearer you get to the falls as does the noise. The waterfall is big and the river is too so the volume of flow mak...

RSPB Scotland Fowlsheugh
Nature preserve
👍 Absolutely worth a visit to check out the birds and hopefully puffins! Really beautiful spot along the cliffs and so many interesting birds. A word of warning though, arrive early if you can. Advisable to arrive on foot or bike if possible. The car park was already full at 10.30am (1 camper taking...

Hauxley Wildlife Discovery Centre
Nature preserve
👍👍 Amazing! First time visiting and the first bird I saw was a beautiful male bullfinch on a feeder, which I must have watched for 20 minutes. Next up was a barn owl chick on the edge of its nest box, flapping its wings furiously. I then had 4 sightings of barn owls hunting and stooping for prey. Just...
