Area Insights
Norham lies on the northern edge of Northumberland, close to the market town of Berwick upon Tweed. The village lies on the banks of the River Tweed and is framed around a pretty village green. Norham is a thriving village with a wholesome community offering a wide range of events and clubs from fishing on the Tweed to a Historical society. A full list of events and clubs can be found on the Norham Life website (https://www.norhamlife.co.uk). Although nearby Berwick upon Tweed offers an excellent range of national supermarkets and services, the Village of Norham has a fantastic local shop, regionally renowned butcher, baker, two public houses which offer excellent food and even a gun shop which would all love your support. The village also offers a very highly regarded primary school, a doctor’s surgery on the village green, a daily postal van and a very well attended fish and chip van every Thursday evening.
Eight miles east of Norham is the nearby market town of Berwick upon Tweed which has further amenities and services including a wealth of cafes and restaurants, the Maltings Theatre and Cinema, a good choice of doctors and dental surgeries as well as a local hospital. Berwick also has an east coast main line railway station with regular trains to Edinburgh and London and schooling for all ages.
The region offers a range of popular attractions, including historical castles and villages to explore and a particularly stunning coastline. For those who enjoy cycling, the area offers four national routes from Norham and walking opportunities in the Northumberland National Park and Cheviot Hills which are all within a short drive. Permits for fly fishing (trout) are locally available on approximately 2 miles of both banks at Ladykirk and Norham.
