Overview
Property code: CN130

Myrtle House is a beautifully furnished holiday home, set in the heart of Amble. Recently renovated, this house offers a living/dining, separate kitchen leading onto a family shower-room. Outside is a lovely private enclosed yard. Upstairs there are two bedrooms, a double and a twin. This house is an idyllic retreat for couples or small families. The cosy living room is tastefully decorated and has a log burning stove taking centre stage. The living space also doubles up as your dining space with a dining table to seat up to 2 people. The compact kitchen has an electric cooker, small fridge and plenty of storage space for your own supplies too. To the rear of the property is an allocated car parking space.

Amble is a waterfront town declaring itself as the friendliest port and hugs the River Coquet estuary at the southern gateway to the Northumberland Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

From Amble’s port, you can take a boat trip to Coquet Island and see the colourful 36,000 bird colony nesting on it. This colony is an RSPB seabird sanctuary just a mile off the coast. It inspired Amble to host the UK’s only puffin festival, which now happens annually from the end of May.

If you are looking to dine out within Amble, there are plenty of places to go. As you would expect from a fishing town, you can enjoy some of the tastiest fish from the local Fish and Chip Shop, or you can visit Zecca an Italian Restaurant that serves traditional Italian food with a modern twist with an emphasis on using locally caught seafood. For a real treat, visit the Old Boat House, which is a rustic bistro with stunning harbour views. There are many other types of cuisine with the village including various pubs restaurants and cafes. If you fancy an ice cream, pop into Spurreli Boutique Ice Cream Parlour where you will be spoilt for choice from their various flavours of locally made ice creams.

Just a mile outside of Amble, is the beautiful village of Warkworth, home of the magnificent Warkworth Castle. Wander around the villages artisan shops and enjoy a cone of homemade ice cream from the nearby Morwick Dairy.

Nice little property in an excellent location for exploring Northumberland. Amble is a lovely town with excellent restaurants and good pubs. The property is generally very comfortable and feels very homely although it could benefit from some extra home furnishings and equipment in the kitchen.

Also handy to drive from and visit all the amazing beaches etc near to Amble.., A few slight tweaks to make it better would be a fridge with freezer compartment as we like our ice in drinks.

A well positioned cottage within easy reach of shops and restaurants. The more popular restaurants need to be booked in advance.
