Overview
Property code: 83448
Located just a short stroll from beautiful Beadnell Bay (0.8 miles), this exquisite seaside retreat offers easy access to coastal adventures and local amenities. The area boasts beachside refreshments, two popular pub/restaurants, a general store, and an excellent bistro, along with a children's play area. Perfect for water enthusiasts, the superb beach invites rock pooling, kitesurfing, paddleboarding, and windsurfing, or simply relaxing in the sand dunes. Follow the coastal path past the scenic golf course to Seahouses (2.3 miles) for boat trips to see puffins and seals on the Farne Islands, or venture to Bamburgh's fabulous beach and castle (5.4 miles). Further exploration reveals Dunstanburgh Castle, Embleton Beach, and Low Newton with its inviting beachside pub, while Alnwick Castle lies just 13.4 miles inland.

 
Enter this beautifully presented holiday home through the garden gate and conservatory, where you'll find a comfortable corner sofa—ideal for relaxing with a book and morning coffee while overlooking the garden. A sliding glazed door leads to the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner featuring another corner sofa bed, perfect for one or two additional child guests. Evenings can be spent together watching the Smart TV with Netflix already set up for your convenience. The kitchen area includes an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge, and dishwasher, while a dining table with four stools provides space for indoor meals. The attractive dual-aspect king-size bedroom includes a single trundle bed beneath for a third guest, and a shower room with WC completes the interior.

 
Outside, the fully enclosed private garden offers multiple seating areas to enjoy the coastal air. Dine alfresco at the cushioned table, catch up over drinks at the picnic bench, or recline in garden chairs as the day winds down. The conservatory extends your outdoor living space, perfect for those longer summer evenings or cooler coastal days. The property benefits from allocated off-road parking for one car to the rear, and welcomes up to two dogs, making it a dog-friendly getaway ideal for the whole family to enjoy beach strolls from the doorstep and coastal paths for walking and cycling adventures.

The area is lovely, very quiet and the cottage is great for 2 people and 2 dogs.

The design and situation of the "cottage" on a small housing estate was unusual, but in fact it was ideal for walking to both of the beaches and to the village shop. There are several dog friendly cafes nearby too. It was suitably equipped for 1 person and dog, but I didn't let dog get too sandy as there was nowhere outside to clean him.

We had a lovely week, a couple and our dog. My concern on arrival was seeing that our bungalow was ajoined by 2 others, but thankfully this wasnt an issue with one bungalow empty all week and the other creating little noise. The area was very quiet, we had lots of dog walks and met some lovely people, locals and holiday makers.

On 1st impression the property was very good however, the shower had black mould on the tiles and the duvet was bulky with very uncomfortable pillows.

I would suggest the people who own this property stay in it for a week so they realise that the comments in the visitor book are all true.
