A superbly renovated cottage in the quiet hamlet of Dunstan Steads, this property lies within a mile of Embleton Bay. Commanding views across the dunes towards the North Sea, Embleton Village is 1 mile away.
An idyllic coastal retreat for 2. Mermaid Cottage is a little gem of a property, beautifully converted from part of the original Dunstan Steads farmhouse, close to the dunes on Embleton Bay.
On the ground floor there’s a fabulous compact kitchen diner with stainless steel worktop and units incorporating oven, fridge and microwave and a small farmhouse kitchen table and chairs. The room is well lit with an opaque glass panel to one wall and roof light. The bedroom is also on the ground floor, a delightful room, with beautiful tall bedside chests of drawers with lamps and oak floor. The ensuite bathroom has a shower over the bath and quirky steel wash hand basin (headroom is restricted in places). Upstairs to the first floor and the style continues into the living room with oak floors and leather sofa, TV with Freeview, DVD, radio and Victorian fireplace. This is a lovely space with French doors leading to a Juliette balcony and fabulous sea views.
Mermaid Cottage is in such a fabulous location. If you’re a couple looking to spend a few days at the coast this is the place. The property is close to Embleton Bay with an impressive 2 mile sweep of fine sandy beach and the dramatic ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle. Nearby Craster, is a traditional little fishing village and well worth a visit or head to Beadnell, Alnmouth and Embleton - all close at hand.
