Rock Moor Farm Cottage is a spacious, semi-detached property ideally positioned to offer the best of Northumberland's treasures. Embark on adventures through the National Park's rolling hills and verdant valleys, where you can hike scenic trails and marvel at the breath-taking Dark Skies. Discover the region's rich history with visits to the magnificent Alnwick Castle and its enchanting gardens, the dramatic Bamburgh Castle perched on the coastline, and the Holy Island of Lindisfarne, accessible via a tidal causeway, with its ancient priory and rich birdlife. For coastal delights, explore the charming seaside villages of Embleton and Low Newton by the Sea, with their golden sandy beaches and dramatic cliffs. And for those traveling with furry companions, a delightful dog-friendly café is just a short stroll away. Return to the comfortable cottage after a day of exploring, and enjoy the peace and quiet of the countryside.

Step inside and enter a convenient porch, complete with coat hooks for storing outdoor wear and dog leads. From here, you’ll find yourself in the bright and welcoming open-plan lounge and dining area. This spacious room, bathed in natural light, offers delightful views of the rear garden, accessible through French doors. Relax and unwind on the Chesterfield sofas and armchair, enjoying a movie by the feature fireplace. At the other end of the room, a cosy wood-burning stove creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. A selection of books and games, including a table football for friendly competition, are also available for your enjoyment. The dining area features an extending table with seating for up to six guests. The fully-equipped kitchen boasts a double Belfast sink, oven and grill, microwave, and fridge with a small freezer compartment. Adjacent to the kitchen is a practical utility room, housing a washing machine and a separate cloakroom with WC.

All bedrooms offer beautiful views of the surrounding countryside. The bathroom features a bath, a separate shower, and a basin, along with a separate WC.

Outside, the French doors open onto an enclosed, lawned garden, a perfect haven for al fresco dining. Here you will find a table and chairs, and children's play equipment.

Had a really lovely holiday. The cottage was very warm and cosy and had everything we needed. There was a fantastic dog walk very close by and easy driving distance to explore beaches. We would definitely stay here again!

Great location and walks from the door a real bonus. Bed was so comfortable with luxury bedding. Downstairs furniture also very comfortable. Once hedge cut in back garden the view was amazing, beautiful views across open countryside can be seen from upstairs. Had everything you needed to make meals. So peaceful, had a wonderful stay.

Great base for exploring Northumberland. Cottage clean and had everything you needed, although some of the equipment needed upgrading. However did not spoil our experience. Recommendations: Mumbai Indian restaurant in Alnwick. Dirty Bottles pub in Alnwick, did not eat here but menu looked good. Craster Arms pub in Beadnell, good food. Di Spori ItalRead moreian in Alnwick. Book restaurants in advance as very busy in peak periods. Embleton beach but get there early as parking is very busy. Hide

Picture of front of house needs updating. The bed layout in the middle bedroom means you have to climb over the beds to get to the window, really should be a single or have bunkbeds. Neither of the toilets have washbasins (although hand sanitiser is provided), the upstairs toilet is at the opposite end of the landing to the bathroom, so you have waRead morelk past the bedrooms to get from one to the other, something to consider if you have light sleepers staying. The dishwasher wasn't working properly. Hide

On arrival, disappointed to find that the cottage hadn't had a proper clean. The cottage really needs some TLC but perhaps this will happen once the building works are finished. Location is good and The Rocking Horse cafe is just along the road, great food and dog friendly. Low Newton beach lovely for walking the dogs in the evening.

The cottage is in a lovely location, within easy reach of fantastic beaches, Alnwick, boat trips and great walks. It is very handy for the A1 but also in a very peaceful rural setting. There is a fantastic cafe just along the road. It is spacious and the living area downstairs is very comfortable, with a modern kitchen. Parking is straightforward.
