About This Place

Less than an hour’s drive from Edinburgh, Pease Bay has a beautiful sandy beach, flanked by sandstone cliffs and rocky outcrops.  The location is stunning, and the presence of an award-winning holiday park immediately adjacent to the beach makes this a popular destination for families.  The beaches exposed position also makes this a top destination for surfers.  --> There are a variety of walks in the area, and Pease Dean Wildlife Reserve, a short walk from the beach offers footpaths leading through ancient woodland.  The reserve is home to a variety of plant and animal life including plenty of wildflowers, bats and roe deer. The small village of Cockburnspath, a short distance from the beach has a village shop.  For a wider choice of shops, eateries and pubs, Dunbar is a short drive up the coast.

💡 Our Take

Looking for a dog-friendly beach day in Scotland? We at DogParkUK recommend Pease Bay! This beach allows dogs year-round, perfect for off-season zoomies. While specific descriptions are limited, embrace the open expanse of sandy shores, ideal for energetic pups and gentle seniors alike. Remember parking may be limited; arrive early. Coastal areas can present hazards. So keep a watchful eye on your dog, especially if they're keen swimmers. Given the open nature, Pease Bay could be fantastic for confident larger breeds but might overwhelm smaller, anxious dogs. Always assess your dog's comfort level, and enjoy!
