Mid Cote

About this property

Bamburgh 2.8 miles. Seahosues 1.5 miles. Boasting Grade II listed accommodation, Mid Cote is a picture-postcard, pretty cottage situated in Shoreston, close to Bamburgh in Northumberland and is just a short walk from the beach. Ideal for a family with an older child or a couple, the cottage offers rustic and well-presented interiors together with delightful gardens. On stepping into the property, guests are welcomed into a gorgeous living area with solid wood flooring, neutral décor, tasteful soft furnishings and a beautiful inset woodburning stove, making a wonderful space for chilling out whether just getting warm in front of the fire, chatting with each other or zoning out and watching TV. If you’re hungry then the fully fitted, country-style kitchen is ready for the designated chef to come and cook up a storm. When it’s time to serve up, there is a delightful dining area in the main living space where guests can pull up a chair and look forward to tucking into relaxing meals together. The gardens are a real feature, so if the sun is shining you will definitely be spending a lot of time here with gardens, a charming summerhouse and a patio area with a barbecue just waiting for you to fire it up and indulge in quality time drinking and dining alfresco. All the fresh Northumberland air will no doubt have tired you out, so at bedtime choose from a pleasant king-size or an attractive single. Both are beautifully presented and come with a TV, so no need to worry about missing out on your favourite programme! In the morning, you’ll be refreshed and raring to go, so after a quick shower you’re good to go and ready to explore the delights of Bamburgh and beyond. Bamburgh and the castle is a must-visit while you are here. Head off from here and carry on along the Heritage Coastline where you will find miles of sandy beaches, quaint fishing villages and breath-takingly beautiful castles. Other towns worth visiting in the region include Alnwick, Seahouses (just a few miles away) and you can even head to the border and visit the ever-popular town of Berwick-upon-Tweed. Activities to look forward to in the area include golf, sailing (from Seahouses to the Farne Islands), birdwatching, hiking, cycle rides and horse-riding. Boasting a superb location and beautiful Grade II listed accommodation, Mid Cote is the perfect holiday destination.

The village’s sweeping sandy beaches and dramatic fortress - Bamburgh Castle - make Bamburgh one of Northumberland’s major visitor attractions. The castle can be seen for miles and dominates this part of the county’s coastline. Today it remains home to the family of the great Victorian industrialist Lord Armstrong, and is open to the public on a daily basis. Although overshadowed by the great castle, Bamburgh village is picturesque with neat grey stone cottages facing a manicured village green. There are excellent pubs, hotels with restaurants and a small selection of village shops. There are golf courses in Bamburgh and nearby Seahouses, and within easy reach are more wide sandy beaches, lovely fishing villages, stunning castles and coastal islands to explore along the dramatic Heritage Coast. There are numerous other attractions also a short drive away, including the famous Alnwick Castle and Gardens and the historic walled border town, Berwick-upon-Tweed. A superb base for exploring Northumberland.
