Property code: OC-GD1036

Escape to the coast and fill your time with long, scenic walks, water sports and trips to the nearby quaint villages. Settle into this crisp and bright, traditional bungalow which backs onto Beadnell Bay Beach for a memorable break with a group of up to seven other guests.

As you enter the cottage, you’ll find yourself in a warm and welcoming open-plan lounge/diner with an eye-catching original fireplace with an open fire. Wooden furnishings create an elegant and traditional feel. A skylight in the kitchen keeps it bright and airy while cooking a special homemade dinner for your guests. Choose from four lovingly decorated bedrooms – a king-size with an open en-suite, two doubles and a bunk bedroom. There is also a family bathroom with brightly coloured wood panelling. Outside, you’ll find an enclosed south-west-facing garden with a patio, lawn, furniture and a BBQ.

Open the gate in the garden and step straight onto the windswept dunes of Beadnell Bay Beach (less than 200 metres). Start your day with a splash in the sea before strolling along the Beadnell Bay Sand Dunes to reach the Long Nanny Beadnell Bay Bird Sanctuary (2 miles). Visit the nearby village of Seahouses (2.5 miles), where you can catch a boat to the Farne Islands – where you can spot puffins at the rookery. You’ll also be just 9.5 miles from the dramatic ruins of the 14th-century Dunstanburgh Castle and the historic Queen Margaret’s Cove (9 miles).

Lovely property and really comfortable. Fantastic location - our dogs loved the garden. Access to the beach from the garden was great and just a few metres over the dunes from the garden. Beadnell is a lovely village with easy footpath to the Craster Arms.

We absolutely loved our stay at Sandycott! We had to rearrange our cottage booking as our previous choice became unavailable, Sandycott was suggested by the booking agents, and turned out to be a much better choice! A quiet location, with ample room to park, and a lovely big garden with plenty of room for two daft black labs to run off what steam Read morethey had left after their days on the beach. Access to the dunes and beach via the garden would have been challenging, but it was such a short walk to the (magnificent) beach from the house that it not a problem. We had hoped to have access to the sun room, sadly this was not possible, but as we were very lucky with the weather we were able to sit out on the patio and enjoy the sunshine at the end of the day. The sitting room is a lovely, airy space, with comfy sofas and chairs, the bedrooms were comfortable and we all slept well too. In short, a fabulous stay - we were very sad to leave and would return to Sandycott in a heartbeat, and indeed hope to next year! Hide

Same comments from reviews in 2023/2024. It's in dire need of refurbishment, looks very tired. Cleaning leaves a lot to be desired, had to empty previous guests vegetables (rotting) and half drunk bottle of water from fridge, then had to clean out both fridge and freezer before using. Work surfaces in the kitchen had to be washed down before useRead more. Out of date food removed from cupboards and discarded. Owner contacted about the above observations, also messaged about a leak on the main bathroom sink which covered the floor in water rendering this unusable, he replied that he had contacted a plumber, no one came. Hence 7 people using the ensuite bathroom. Door between the living room and bedrooms slams shut every time it's opened due to the door closer and also blocks the bedroom doorway. Hot water set at a very high temperature which isn't good for children. Blocked off the access to the sun room as this was easily accessible for children. Beach access through the rear gate is not accessible as overrun with nettles. Hide

Lovely cottage with exceptional beach access and a large garden for our dogs to explore. Weve already recommended Sandycott to our friends.

The cottage is in a lovely location. Our stay was complicated by being unable to use the front door, and having to keep our large dog on a lead due to two low sections of fence. These issues can hopefully be rectified for future guests.

A beautiful cottage in a perfect location. It's perfect for a peaceful beach stay. The cottage would benefit from some TLC & updating, although it didn't deter us from enjoying our stay. A word of warning - the hot water is hotter than the surface of the sun so becareful.
