About this property

This 18th century end-terrace cottage is in the Northumberland village of Christon Bank, 2 miles from Low Newton-by-the-Sea. Formerly the village inn, this Christon Bank cottage has been lovingly restored in a contemporary style to provide light and airy, tasteful accommodation set over one floor. To the front of this Christon Bank cottage there is a spacious sitting room with a warming woodburner and open roof trusses, perfect for unwinding at the end of a long hard day sightseeing. Two lovely bedrooms, one with a part exposed stone wall and one with double doors leading to the rear garden, offer restful sleeping accommodation at this Christon Bank cottage. To the rear of this Christon Bank cottage there is a well-equipped kitchen with dining area and double French windows that open out onto the patio and garden, perfect for alfresco dining. This Christon Bank cottage is just a two minute stroll from the local pub, and a shop and Post Office. Two miles east of your Christon Bank cottage is the stunning coastline, with Bamburgh, Dunstanburgh, Warkworth and Alnwick castles all just short drives away. High and Low Newton-by-the-Sea are just over two miles away, with fantastic beaches and two great pubs serving real ales and excellent food. A great Christon Bank cottage at any time of year.

Eight miles north of Northumberland's picturesque market town of Alnwick, likes the charming village of Christon Bank. Not only are Alnwick's beautiful castle and gardens close at hand, but visitors to the area are also only a mere two miles from the lovely bays at Embleton and Low Newton by the sea. These wonderful bays lay on a strip of unspoiled sandy beaches and are only a brief drive from the Holy Island of Lindisfarne, and the other nature-rich Farne Islands. Set in the rolling hills, this lovely little village has a traditional, real ale pub, which also serves food, but for more variety of cuisine, the neighbouring villages also host a number of excellent restaurants. The Scottish Borders are within easy reach, as is the lively cosmopolitan city of Newcastle upon Tyne.
