This charming cottage would suit a family or group of friends looking to enjoy a relaxing seaside escape. Situated in the village of Newton-by-the-Sea, there are lovely beaches within easy reach and a great choice of friendly pubs with restaurants. The area is very peaceful with a pleasantly slow pace of life. Walkers will enjoy setting out along the trails of the Northumberland Heritage Coast, and with a regular bus service linking the villages and towns, it’s easy to do so car-free. The seaside village of Craster is close to the imposing Dunstanburgh Castle
5.5 miles away and the quaint fishing town of Seahouses is 7 miles away. Alternatively, head inland to the bustling market town of Alnwick, 9 miles away – this thriving destination is home to the impressive Alnwick Castle and Gardens featured in both Downton Abbey and Harry Potter.
The cottage is warm and welcoming with delightful social spaces throughout. Downstairs, guests will find a light, bright, open-plan living and dining room. Here, comfortable seating is gathered around a hearth, and a large window and glass door look out to the garden. The whole group can get together around the traditional dining table and the compact modern kitchen has everything you need to cook up a feast. Also on the ground floor, there’s a stylish shower room and a separate WC. The three bedrooms are all located upstairs on the first floor – choose from a king-size room with fitted wardrobes, and two twin rooms with Velux windows and distant sea views. The modern family bathroom features a bath. Also on the first-floor landing, there’s a little seating area where guests might enjoy quiet reading or a game.
Outside, guests have use of a lovely enclosed front garden with a patio area and a small lawn. This is a pleasant and sheltered space to spend time in and is set up with bench seating as well as an outdoor dining table and chairs. It’s the perfect spot for relaxing with your morning coffee or enjoying your holiday meals in the open air.
