High ceilings and dramatic arched windows fill this converted church cottage with light to create an extremely pleasant place to stay. Situated in the chocolate box village of Embleton, just half a mile from the pristine golden sands of Embleton Bay Beach, you’re well-positioned to get to know the vast attractions of the Northumberland Coast AONB, as well as further adventures inland. The property itself, hosting a total of four guests, is laid out with two exceptionally well-presented bedrooms, one of which sits on a mezzanine floor. Visit this fantastic holiday home as two couples or as a family with older children.
Alongside its original 19th-century features, this fabulous cottage has been updated to feature contemporary decor that suits the clean walls and light-filled rooms. On the ground floor, a fabulous lounge/diner space with the comfiest sofas, a wood burner and a Smart TV invites you to enjoy restful evenings. Next door, find a spacious kitchen and a separate utility room. Both bedrooms are on the first floor, one with an en-suite bathroom and one with a large seating area by one of the property’s attractive arched windows. To complete the offering, a garden set to lawn sits at the back with outdoor furniture for mild-weather stays.
The beach can be reached in just half a mile, perfect for sunbathing days when the weather is warm and wildlife-spotting hikes through the dunes in the cooler months. A short walk along the coastline leads to Dunstanburgh Castle (2 miles), a remote keep with handsome ruins backed by exceptional sea views. Continue further onto the village of Craster (3 miles), an idyllic seaside spot famous for its delicious smoked kippers. Venturing away from the coast, visit the inland attraction of Alnwick (8 miles) with its historic architecture and independent shop-lined streets.
