Tucked away in a pretty cobbled courtyard in the heart of Berwick-upon-Tweed, this beautiful Georgian cottage offers a lovely base for three guests exploring the Northumberland coast. Step outside to discover the town’s independent shops and traditional pubs, then follow the Elizabethan walls for wonderful views across the River Tweed and out to sea. Wander along the quayside and to the lighthouse, or spend an afternoon exploring the exhibitions at Berwick Museum and Art Gallery. Keen paddlers can dip their toes in the sea at Spittal, while rock poolers will love the impressive formations of Cocklawburn Beach (4 miles). Discover the fascinating history of Holy Island (14 miles), accessible via a tidal causeway, or admire the magnificent Bamburgh Castle (19 miles).
Store your coats and shoes in the vestibule of this delightful Georgian hideaway before it unfolds into the homely, cottage-style kitchen. Flick on the kettle or whip up dinner with the many appliances on hand, then head to the lounge/diner to gather at the three-seater table. The lounge is cosy and inviting, with a central wood burner-style electric fire, TV, and well-placed sofas. A desk in the corner is also available for catching up on emails if needed while away. Head up to the first floor to find a charming single bedroom and a spacious king-size bedroom, both with superb views over the cobbled courtyard. Wrap up each day with a shower in the contemporary shower room.
Start each morning with a freshly brewed cuppa in the pretty, pedestrian-only cobbled courtyard, where attractive neighbouring homes create a stunning setting to sit and soak up the surroundings. Permit parking for one car is available on the street just a few metres away, or leave your car at home and travel by train, the train station is only 0.6 miles from the property. The excellent bus service from Berwick means you can easily explore the area
