    “We had a lovely time in the Oystercatcher, it is a real home from home.”

    The house is easy to find, ideally located, well laid out and comfortable with everything you could need for a family holiday. The hosts have provided lots of information about the local area, with tips for families with dogs which was very much appreciated. As soon as we got home I booked again for next year, which is not something we normally do, but the house is so nice and the area has so much more to see and do next time that we are looking forward to visiting again.

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.
