Despite being a hub for rural operations since the 11th century, Swinton's village layout as it is known today dates back to the 18th century. The town of Coldstream, which is located on the banks of one of the top salmon rivers in the nation, is only 5 miles to the north of this location. Duns, which used to be the region's largest town and is located 7 miles away, is rich in history. There are plenty of things to see and do in the Scottish Borders, including golf, fishing, and walking, as well as castles and stately residences. The east coast of Scotland with its stunning beaches is only a short drive away, and busy Edinburgh is about an hour's drive away.
