The Gunsgreen House Trust & Friends
Learn About the Gunsgreen House Trust & Friends
The Trust
The Trust has been set up to preserve the past and create a future for Gunsgreen House as a successful visitor attraction, retail outlet, event space and accommodation provider. Working with local partners, our aim is to attract visitors to the area to explore the unique history of Gunsgreen House in its magnificent setting above Eyemouth harbour.
The Trust comprises people with local knowledge and specialist skills. Trustees are responsible for the strategic direction and financial viability of the House. Plans are currently being developed to improve the attraction for visitors and upgrade the accommodation. At the heart of the Trust’s mission is the long-term viability of the building and effective interpretation of its history.’
The Friends & Patrons
The Friends and Patrons were set up to encourage interested people to support the work of the Trust. The Friends as a group have been enormously influential throughout the fundraising and restoration of the house. Without the generosity, enthusiasm, and expertise of the Friends, much that is now known about the house and much of what you see when you visit would not have been achieved.
As we move into a new era of development at Gunsgreen House, the support and activity of the Friends and Patrons is more vital than ever.
