Overview
Property code: OC-GD0212

Set in a gorgeous countryside setting alongside a peaceful coastal bay, this family-friendly apartment enjoys far-reaching sea views and a calm, scenic backdrop. The bay is a haven for wildlife, home to a bird sanctuary that attracts a variety of species throughout the year—perfect for nature lovers or anyone looking to unwind and reconnect with the outdoors. The location offers the best of both worlds. Bamburgh is just a short drive away, with its golden beaches, iconic castle, and a selection of pubs and cafés. Also nearby is Seahouses, a traditional fishing village with a working harbour, independent shops, and boat trips to the Farne Islands—a great spot to explore during your stay.

Set over three floors, the apartment is a warm and welcoming base for families. On the ground floor, there’s a cosy living area with a modern electric fire, TV, and Wii games console—perfect for relaxed evenings in. A convenient cloakroom offers space to store coats and sandy shoes after a day at the beach. The first floor features a galley-style kitchen that is well equipped for a self-catering stay. Enjoy sea views from the window seat while you cook, or catch the headlines on the large flat screen TV. The dining area offers a lovely spot to gather for meals or plan the day ahead. On the top floor, the master bedroom includes its own TV and enjoys beautiful sea views. There is also a twin bedroom, ideal for children or accompanying friends or family members. The family bathroom features a walk-in shower.

Outside, a shared lawned area with picnic benches offers a peaceful place to sit and take in the views across the bay.

We paid a lot of money for the cottage holiday only to be let down by the quality of the furniture ie table chairs leather was peeling of, the window didn't close in the double bedroom, no light on the staircase, we requested a travel cot and high chair which was not there when we arrived it was 3 hours before it was sorted by this time my baby waRead mores distressed as we could not put him to bed, the cot arrived about 9.30 pm. We will not be booking future holidays with your company. Hide

It was a really lovely accommodation in a beautiful location. My nephew loved the fact that there was a Xbox to play on as he doesn't have one at home. The welcome pack was lovely too. You need to activate WiFi calling as mobile signal is very poor.

Lovely spacious well equipped cottage in a perfect location, great for relaxing after a day of exploring. We explored Holly Island, Berwick on Tweed (and walked the Union Chain bridge into Scotland), Bamburgh, Seahouses and walked part of Hadrians Wall. Its so nice to find such a dog friendly property and Northumberland is so dog friendly. Would 10Read more0% recommend and will definitely come back here in future Hide

Stunning location, nice welcome pack and well equipped cottage in general. Great position for accessing the area. Loved Lindisfarne , Bamburgh castle and boat trip to see puffins and seals is exceptional. We struggled with access as was not made clear to use back entrance. Views from upper windows were beautiful but restricted views were restrictRead moreed by fence. As mentioned in previous review was surprised to be asked to strip beds and vacuum on last day as have never had to do this for any other property before. Hide

The house was in a perfect location, quiet, well equipped and very comfortable. The TV lounge/snug was perfect for cosy nights in. A little more attention to the cleaning of the place but all in all 10/10 would certainly look at booking again
