the popular North Northumbrian Village of Wark. Constructed some three years
ago, the property is set well back from the road featuring a wide tarmac

LOCATION
The village of Wark is situated in North Northumberland close to the Scottish
Border, on the banks of the River Tweed. Some two miles north of Cornhill
on Tweed, Wark was disputed territory with nearby Wark Castle giving an
indication of the part it had to play in Borders history. Delightful river
walks abound with The Tweed famous for its superb salmon fishing. The
charming town of Kelso is just seven miles west with Berwick upon Tweed
14 miles east providing excellent shopping facilities, road and rail links.
DIRECTIONS
Keeper's Cottage is situated on the right, well back from the road, at
the Kelso end of the village.
