    “This is the second time we have stayed at this property and for us it is in an ideal position and my disabled husband can be at the beach in a few steps wuth a cuppa watching the world go by.”

    Some parts of the property could do with a little bit maintenance but we have already booked for next year and would recommend . Ideal position on a bridle path with long walks and wildlife and right on the beach and only two miles from amble.

The property

This delightful, semi-detached cottage sits in a splendid location overlooking Low Hauxley beach, 1.5 miles south of the busy fishing port of Amble. Set just yards from the beach, with wonderful views across the sea from the first floor, this is the ideal setting for couples and families seeking a relaxing seaside getaway. On the ground floor of this wonderful cottage is a well-equipped kitchen and a spacious sitting room with a dining area, exposed stone walls and a cosy woodburning stove for those chillier evenings by the sea. Make your way upstairs and you will find two welcoming bedrooms, along with a bathroom where you can enjoy a relaxing soak at the end of a long day touring the vast, beautiful county of Northumberland. The cottage is situated on the National Coast and Castles cycle route, so why not spend a day touring the superb castles of this historic area? On sunnier days, simply open the door and within a minute you will be on a beautiful Northumberland beach, so take the windbreak, dogs, children and a picnic and your day is sorted! To the north, the busy fishing village of Amble is easily accessible, with an array of pubs, restaurants and takeaways all serving good food and beverages. This beachside cottage is perfectly positioned for anyone wishing to visit the Heritage Coast and the surrounding area. Visit historic Warkworth Castle, just two miles away, take a leisurely drive to the coastal villages of Craster and Alnmouth, or explore popular Alnwick with its imposing castle. An excellent cottage for a seaside break.
