Our third time staying at The Alba, during the winter months. . This for us is definitely a location, location cottage. Every day you have a different view over the water at Amble. The week we stayed we had every sort of weather imaginable, snow one day, blue skies and beach walk the next. We will be back.

The location and view were amazing, something we would never tire of, the changing sea, sun sets, sparrows, swallows, fabulous!
