Savour the serenity of rural Northumberland from this relaxing retreat near Bamburgh. Sleeping six guests, the three-bedroom cottage nestles on a prestigious development, 0.5 miles from Glororum and 2 miles from Bamburgh. Unwind in its soothing light-filled interior, in front of a flickering wood burner or out in the sunshine of the deck as you absorb the verdant views.
Let yourself into the single-storey lodge via the boot room, where you can remove your shoes and pop any beachwear straight into the machine. Prepare to be wowed by the glorious, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with its vaulted ceiling and glass gable ends. Kick back on the comfortable sofas, with the wood burner roaring and the Smart TV screening one of your favourite films. On summer days, pull back the bi-folding doors beside the dining area to bring in a cool sea breeze. Find everything you need up here to help you prepare the fresh produce you have bought on your many forays, then dine at the table inside or out on the deck. When you are ready to rest your head on your pillow for the night, amble through to one of the bedrooms. Here you have two sumptuous king-sizes, one of which has the luxury of an en-suite shower room, and a bright twin. There is also a family bathroom. Both bathrooms benefit from underfloor heating. Sip morning coffee fresh from the machine out on the deck as the day begins. Sizzle supper on the BBQ as the stars begin to appear. There is private parking for two cars.
Head into Bamburgh to visit the striking castle, which famously appeared in TV series the Last Kingdom. From here, enjoy a 3-mile stroll along the magnificent beach to Seahouses. In Seahouses, you can book boat trips out to spot seals and puffins.
