  • Former wheelhouse with a huge circular lounge for sociable evenings in

Property code: 80484

This delightful stone-built cottage offers the perfect getaway for larger groups of friends or family, located just metres from the beach, in the peaceful village of Newton-on-the-Sea.

Just 100 metres from the beach, this stunning seaside retreat is located on the outer reaches of Newton-by-the-Sea – a village considered to be one of the prettiest in Northumberland. One of several lodges within private grounds, it has space for eight people to indulge in a relaxing stay in welcoming self-catering accommodation, topped off with use of brilliant on-site amenities and local attractions (a great village pub is just 0.5 miles away!). With access to the beach and lots of walking opportunities nearby, this property will particularly appeal to outdoor enthusiasts looking to get off the beaten track.

 

The ideal base for group gatherings, this wonderful lodge has it all. To make yourself at home, enter through the hallway and wander to the kitchen/diner for a brew. Well-appointed with everything you could need for homecooked meals and featuring a large dining table, this space will be a haven from morning ‘til night. A unique feature of this former wheelhouse, the impressive circular lounge retains many of its original features and enjoys lots of natural light from six large windows. Spend lazy mornings and rainy afternoons curled up here with a book, warmed by the heat of the wood burner. Separated over the ground and first floors are four bedrooms and three bathrooms – each one tastefully decorated and furnished.

 

Completely self-contained with a shared outdoor play area and games room and superb sandy beach a short walk through the dunes, this property has something for all generations. Venturing further afield, you’ll find plenty more places of interest, including Alnwick (10 miles) with its famous castle, Seahouses (7.5 miles) with its pretty harbour and the sweeping Northumberland Coast Path. For more adventures, Beadnell Bay is 7 miles away, Bamburgh Castle is 10 miles away and Alnmouth Beach is 12 miles away.

Location is stunning with the proximity to the beach and despite the number of cottages on the site it was very quiet and peaceful. The peacocks in the grounds were a lovely surprise.

Wonderful base for a family get together! Comfortable and well equipped, very spacious, the large lounge area forms a very relaxed and flexible space. Wood burning stove much appreciated. Interesting, peaceful location, fantastic access to the beach and coastal walks. We enjoyed our weekend immensely and would definitely return to Links Farm.

The only downside was that two of the four bedrooms did not have access to showers, only baths. The other two bedrooms had ensuite shower rooms.
