A great cottage, superbly well kept, and beautifully clean. We enjoyed staying in the cottage very much. The village was in a good location for exploring the area and the pub in the village was worth a visit (or two) for both food and beer. The cottage was warm and inviting, and the fact there was a welcome hamper a lovely touch.

Absolutely nothing you could find fault with. The welcome hamper was a lovely touch. Probably the best self catering property we have ever been to. I've already recommended Shepherd's Cottage Annexe to friends. Every possible need was anticipated and fulfilled.

Reviewed by Margaret J 23rd June 2017

The cottage was excellent, everything had been well thought out. It was spotlessly clean and lovey and spacious. The village and area are nicely tucked away, but less than ten minutes from Bamburgh, so perfect for us. We enjoyed cycling around the virtually traffic free lanes and walking on the beaches. Hope to return soon.

Location

Note: As the postcode is used to identify the general area of the property, it may not always reflect its precise location, therefore please only use this map as a guide.

If you’re looking for a seaside holiday with a difference, visit Northumberland – a region brimming with beautiful golden, sandy beaches, rolling hills, craggy moorland, bustling market towns and fishing villages, and more castles than in any other county in England.

Situated in the North East of England, this designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty boasts no less than 39 miles of unspoilt coastline to explore and a calendar packed with exhilarating water sports options. To indulge in a spot of surfing, kayaking or powerboating, take a trip to one of the many breath-taking Northumberland beaches - where dogs love a good walk and fresh local seafood is never far away.

Home to the awe-inspiring Cheviot Hills and the historical Hadrian’s Wall, the Northumberland National Park is renowned for its open spaces, award-winning Dark Skies and stunning rural backdrops - and is the least populated national park in Britain. Offering access to challenging hikes, horse-riding, rock-climbing and a multitude of other action-packed activities, the park is one of the region’s greatest draws.

There is a huge range of spectacular wildlife and sea life waiting to be sighted, whether you take a boat ride to the Farne Islands to admire the colony of Atlantic grey seals and puffins, or explore the Kielder Water and Forest Park, home to magnificent ospreys. If it’s history you’re looking for, the imposing Bamburgh Castle and the world-famous Alnwick Castle are undoubtedly worth a visit.

Alternatively, if you’re seeking the bright lights of a city adventure, Newcastle upon Tyne is the place to go. Here, you can experience world-class culture, outstanding attractions, superb shopping, impressive live shows, top entertainers and delicious cuisine in abundance.
