Boasting a superb cliff top position, this stone cottage stands in the most idyllic and desirable location 2.5 miles from the small fishing village of Craster.

A simply stunning Grade II listed holiday cottage in the most superb location! The Bathing House is perched on the rocks above a little sandy cove with 180 degree sea views. Imagine falling asleep to the sounds of the waves, waking up and drawing back the curtains and gazing out over the ocean.

This romantic location was a favourite spot of the 2nd Earl Grey who commissioned the build of the house for his family to use when they went bathing… he had 16 children! Today The Bathing House is owned by Howick Trustees Ltd, who also own Howick Hall.

The majestic ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle can be seen in the north, whilst to the south there are distant views of Coquet Island. The coastline in this region is characterised by a mixture of rocky inlets and lovely sandy beaches with attractive walks along the cliff tops. A 14 mile coastal footpath between Beadnell and Alnmouth passes nearby providing the opportunity of walking through some of the most outstanding coastal scenery in the country, this part of the Heritage Coast is designated an "Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty" as well as being a "Site of Special Scientific Interest". Keen cyclists should note that the Coast and Castles cycle route passes nearby.

The Bathing House is perfect for a family celebration or a few nights away with friends - simply unpack, relax and leave your mobile switched off!
