    “A well presented and equipped cottage with exceedingly good views over the bay.”

    The cottage was very clean and tidy on our arrival and it's location suited us. There were a few very minor niggles that I have reported to the owner and he has said he will look into these points. A note relevant to anyone looking to stay in early November: the cottage is about 200m from where the annual town bonfire is lit on 5 November (we didn't know this). Our dog, a timid border collie was terrified on this night; shaking and panting uncontrollably from the effects of the aerial bombs ...

    The cottage was very clean and tidy on our arrival and it's location suited us. There were a few very minor niggles that I have reported to the owner and he has said he will look into these points. A note relevant to anyone looking to stay in early November: the cottage is about 200m from where the annual town bonfire is lit on 5 November (we didn't know this). Our dog, a timid border collie was terrified on this night; shaking and panting uncontrollably from the effects of the aerial bombs and flashes in the sky. This is the only reason I have given 4* - any other period and it would have been 5*. I have asked the owner if he will include a note in his property description to highlight the closeness of the property to the bonfire site.

    - William, November 2023

    Thank you for your review and direct feedback which we will aim to address, we are pleased that you enjoyed your stay. The bonfire location does change from time to time, however, in future years we will ask the agents to advise guests staying around November 5th that there may be fireworks close by. We hope to welcome you to Longstone again in the future Property Owner

About the location

EMBLETON

Craster 3 miles; Beadnell 4 miles; Alnwick 7 miles.

The pretty village of Embleton is ideally placed for exploring one of the most attractive stretches of Northumberland's Heritage Coastline. A beautiful grassy path runs from the village to neighbouring Craster, alongside the sea and past Dunstanburgh Castle - the largest ruined castle in Northumberland. Embleton itself has a village pub and a local hotel, and there is an excellent range of amenities in nearby Alnwick. The gardens at nearby Howick Hall are open during the summer and are noted for their beauty, whilst Alnwick Castle and Garden are a 'must-see' when visiting the area. For the keen golfer, Dunstanburgh Links Course is about 1 mile away - just one of several excellent courses in the vicinity.
