Reviews

A cosy cottage, ideally placed for dining at the Cottage Inn and for visiting the beautiful beaches and coastal villages, both north and south. The seating in the garden was much appreciated.

Mrs W,

A very comfortable, well equipped cottage, in a small village, with a very nice pub 3 doors down which has good food. The little paved garden is fully enclosed and perfect for a dog and sitting out. Within easy walking distance of Craster and Dunstanburgh Castle with lots more to see up and down the coast.

Mrs N,

Lovely cosy cottage set in a really small, quiet village. Perfect for us two and the dog, with a secure side garden to sit out in. Only a short walk into Craster, over fields and marked footpaths. Pub/hotel a few doors down, with huge grassed beer garden. Superb food, including take out of their full menu!

Mrs J,

The cottage is in an ideal area to visit the local attractions.

Mrs L,

Lovely base to explore the area. Small but perfectly formed cottage. Fabulous pub literally few doors away.

Mrs B,

Beautiful location and picturesque, quaint cottage with superb access to Craster, Dunstanburgh Castle and the sublime Embleton beach. Don't miss the excellent Cottage Inn nearby for a hearty meal. It really doesn't get any better than this!

Mr D,

The cottage was pretty and the location was great for walking and going to the harbour to fish, and for walking to the castle. It is not far from Howick Gardens too, which are lovely. It was handy having the Cottage Inn next door for a meal. I couldn’t get a signal or calls on my O2 phone but could on husband’s phone, which is EE. A shop owner said there is talk of putting a phone mast in at some point.

Mrs S,

A lovely comfortable cottage in a perfect location for exploring the Northumberland Coast.
