REVIEWS
"Second visit to Puffin Retreat”
This was our second visit to Puffin Retreat, having stayed last July. We love this accommodation and have returned because it is in a great location, very well equipped, extremely comfortable and furnished to a high standard. The owners have thought of everything and the bottle of wine was a lovely touch. Very much looking forward to returning next year. - Peter July 2019

“A fabulous retreat”
Again, we experienced a wonderful stay at Puffin’s Retreat, fantastically located in the heart of beautiful North Berwick.
The accommodation is ideal for a family of four and has all the amenities you will need. The arrival wine went down wonderfully! Thank you John and Cathy, we will be back. - Molly June 2019

“Perfect accommodation”
deally situated in the centre of North Berwick and minutes from the beach. Apartment was furnished to a high standard and spotlessly clean. Beds were very comfortable too. Would definitely come back! - Linda Feb 2019
DIRECTIONS
BY RAIL
From North Berwick Railway Station follow the signs to “Town Centre” and “Scottish Seabird Centre” which lead you down to the High Street. At the far (east) end of the High Street turn left on the Quality Street for 30m. The door to Puffins Retreat is just before the Cucina Amore restaurant.
BY BUS
The 124, X24 and X25 buses from Edinburgh and 120, 121, 125, 126 and 127 local service buses all stop at the nearest bus stop on Church Road off North Berwick High Street. Quality Street is 300m away at the end of the High Street.
BY CAR
The satnav address: 35 Quality Street, EH39 4HR. If approaching from the East e.g. from Dunbar follow the signs to the Scottish Seabird Centre and you will pass through Quality Street by turning right at the roundabout next to Alanda’s Gelateria ice cream parlour. Puffins Retreat is 80m from the roundabout on the left-hand side. If approaching from the West, e.g. from Edinburgh /Gullane, follow the signs to the Scottish Seabird Centre all the way through North Berwick down to the beach until the end of Forth Street. Turn right on to Quality Street. Puffins Retreat is 20mm on the right.
PARKING
There is free parking outside the flat but beware of the 45-minute time restriction on Quality Street. There is a 4 hours restriction a few yards away on Victoria Street toward the Seabird Centre but the public carpark on Quality Street is unlimited.
