Property Description
Fenton Tower is a magnificent, fortified 16th Century tower located 18 miles East of Edinburgh near the coastal town of North Berwick. The castle's location was originally chosen in the 11th Century because it afforded panoramic views in all directions and has had many distinguished visitors, among them being King James VI of Scotland (son of Mary Queen of Scots and Lord Darnley) who took refuge there as he fled from the rebel army in Fife across the Firth of Forth.
The Tower has now been meticulously restored, and opened in 2002 to provide 5-star accommodation for up to 12 guests. Set among rolling countryside and surrounded by many of the worlds' most famous golf courses (Muirfield, Gullane & North Berwick), Fenton Tower is the perfect base for a magnificent golfing experience.
Fenton Tower is situated 4 miles from the A1 and only a 40 minute drive from Edinburgh Airport. The location of the Tower makes it ideal for all kinds of country, sporting and recreational activities.
Arrangements can be made for parties of up to eight people for Grouse, Partridge and Pheasant shooting, as well as fly fishing on the rivers Tweed and Tyne – just speak with our Concierge Team!
Horse riding, archery, and 5-star local attractions (including The National Museum of Flight, home to Concorde, and the Scottish Seabird Centre) are all within a stones-throw of the Castle making your visit to East Lothian one to remember.
