This welcoming cottage is a wonderful retreat for a small family looking to explore the coast and countryside alike. Set close to the A1, the nearby Holy Island of Lindisfarne (6 miles) offers an unforgettable day out. Reachable only at low tide via a causeway, it’s a magical place to explore the windswept beaches and cosy cafe. For bucket-and-spade days, Goswick Beach (5.5 miles) is a vast stretch of golden sand that’s ideal for family walks and beach games. Venture 8 miles north to the historic town of Berwick-upon-Tweed, where you can walk the Elizabethan town walls, discover the local history, or enjoy riverside picnics and ice cream. Head 11 miles south to Bamburgh and explore the grand castle with a wide, sandy beach below. Seahouses (14 miles) is the launch point for boat trips to the Farne Islands, with a chance to spot puffins, seals, and perhaps even dolphins.

Enter the open-plan living space designed for easy holiday living. Sink into the comfortable seating, catch up on your favourite series on the wall-mounted Smart TV, or gather at the dining table for leisurely breakfasts. The kitchen area is fully equipped, so rustling up anything from picnic lunches to a special supper is a breeze. A ground-floor shower room is on hand for freshening up after a day of exploring. Climb the stairs to the mezzanine level, where you’ll find a double bed plus an extra single for a small family or couples who appreciate a little more space. Ample storage keeps everything neat and tidy.

Open the door to your enclosed patio, perfect for a morning coffee or sunset drink. A separate laundry room houses a handy washer/dryer. Beyond the patio lies a large, shared garden: relax on handcrafted seating around the fire pit, toast marshmallows under the stars, or simply stretch out on the lawn on a sunny day. Practical touches include off-road parking for one car, secure bike storage, and access to a shared EV charging point. Although there is some passing road noise, it’s modest and easily forgotten once you’re settled in. For larger groups, there are three other bookable properties on site.
