For those seeking a bucolic break, this cottage offers a rural retreat along the Northumberland coast. The setting is postcard-perfect – a stone façade, postbox red door, and a luscious green garden surround this home. Wake up every morning and soak up the sound of seclusion on your terrace with coffee. When you’re ready to head out, you’re moments away from Beadnell Bay Beach, Ebb’s Nook and Beadnell Harbour, as well as within a short distance of the Farne Islands. Inside, there are traditional countryside features such as beamed ceilings, exposed stonework and a wood-burning fireplace. You’ll love sharing a bottle of red wine, fire crackling in the background, after a day exploring the coastal paths. And there’s plenty of history to discover outside the home too – jump in the car to the 14th-century Preston Tower and Iron Age fort, Dunstanburgh Castle.

About The Northumberland Coast
Right at the top of England, Northumberland’s great expanse is dotted with medieval strongholds that have seen many a bloody battle. A landscape rich with history, you can explore the crumbling ruins of clifftop castles or tour restored and retained masterpieces at Bamburgh Castle and Alnwick Castle.
