Discover the stunning Northumberland coast with your loved one while staying in this gorgeous seaside cottage for an unforgettable romantic break. This peaceful area can be discovered by foot or bike thanks to the scenic coastal path running the length of the county. Discover fun-filled days out visiting castles, observing sea life or sipping Earl Grey tea at its place of origin, then head back for a cosy night in with your partner. If you've got dogs, they can come along too as this property welcomes up to two canine guests.

 

This bungalow is a peaceful haven, with original features such as wooden ceiling beams that add to its charm. The open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner is perfect for relaxing in, perhaps reading a magazine or watching some TV together. Meals just like at home can be prepared in the well-equipped kitchen. Outside, you'll find a patio with lovely sea views where you can enjoy afternoon coffee and cake while taking in the pretty surroundings and a lockable bike storage shed.

 

In Boulmer, enjoy a quiet pint in the local pub or have a nose at the work in the small art gallery. Look out for the traditional wooden coble fishing boats, which are still used to catch crab, lobster and sea salmon today. To stretch your legs, wander along the coast to Alnmouth (3.5 miles), a picturesque village on the edge of the River Aln. Here you'll find painted houses and village shops to explore, plus a beach that's perfect for playing badminton or just lazing back on. Howick (4 miles) is the home of Earl Grey tea – head to the tea room to enjoy home-cooked scones with a cup of the world-famous brew.

Great location, literally minutes from the beach. The cottage is small but absolutely fine for myself and my pooch, I felt cosy and settled straight away. It's also a great base to go and explore other parts of Northumberland but has it's own fabulous walks that start from Boulmer. The bottle of wine and dog biscuits were a nice touch, thank you!

Cottage small, but clean and nicely laid out. Close to beach but not able to actually see the sea- which wasnt clear from the description. Great enclosed courtyard for dog owners. Decor and furniture a little dated but comfy. Shame that the local pub ( Fishing Boat Inn) no longer accepts dogs which meant we had to drive further a field. We had thouRead moregh a good stay and the wine and dog treats were much appreciated as left by the owner Hide

Spindrift Cottage offers excellent value, in the lovely little hamlet of Boulmer, right next to the sea. The beach and sand dunes are only 50 metres away - ideal for seaside walks, especially for those with dogs. The cottage is warm and well equipped, including Wi-Fi and a smart TV.
