Approach notes

Turn off the A1 at Burnmouth and follow the A1107 into Burnmouth for 300m then turn right to Lower Burnmouth. Follow the single-track road steeply downhill to the harbour and continue along the shore front. Pass the first row of houses and park on the left at the railings before the second row of houses. From the parking place, follow the coastal path south for 1.5 km, past Lamberton Holdings to the end of the field overlooking a small pond. Follow the fence line seaward to the top of a grassy embankment. Descend this to the stony beach. Turn right and head south to the stacks.
