    “I should have looked at the photographs of the individual studio more carefully.”

    We are both close to six feet tall and over 70. Whilst being aware that there are steep stairs we were not expecting so much restriction on head height. The futon style bed was also less than ideal, so low to get out of. No instructions for the hob and the internet instructions found still failed to educate us how to use it.

    We are both close to six feet tall and over 70. Whilst being aware that there are steep stairs we were not expecting so much restriction on head height.

With only a microwave there should be some bowls to use for heating things up, The flat is well kept and clean and for someone younger would be a great base for a couple of days, not so good for us. Disappointed after having visited before with the whole family and had the largest accommodation which was 5*.

    Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the accommodation did not meet your expectations especially when you’ve stayed with us before we appreciate that these features may be less suitable for some gas and we will review. Clearly these points are highlighted in the listing so guess can make an informal decision before Booking. We have a huge choice of other accommodation if you would like to come back and stay at North farm Thank you again for staying with us Property Owner

North Farm Cottages

A group of tastefully decorated, luxury cottages with panoramic views towards Embleton Bay. Each cottage at North Farm has been individually styled with great attention to detail; with dining tables for those celebratory meals, sleek kitchens and large living areas to accommodate you and your loved ones, spacious bedrooms with soft beds and bathroom facilities, all of which help to provide a superb base for touring this beautiful county. Relax on the peaceful patio area or perhaps enjoy a dip in the newly-built swimming pool. North Farm was once a busy working farm and is still surrounded by lush green fields. A safe, gently sloping farm track leads from the farm down to stunning Embleton Bay, with little extras along the way to make the walk more exciting. Guests can say hello to the three deer, stop off at the old pill box for a rest or relax on the beach and spend the day making sandcastles and paddling. From the beach, turn left and take a stroll to the Ship at Low Newton, famous for its microbrewery and scrumptious food, or for a more ambitious walk, turn right and take in Dunstanburgh Castle. Head to Craster, where you can sample the delights of a crab sandwich in the Jolly Fisherman, or pick up some kippers from Robson's famous smokery. There is so much to see and do in Northumberland, with Alnwick Castle and Gardens, Holy Island, Bamburgh, Warkworth and Berwick all within easy reach. These delightful cottages are perfect for a beachside Northumberland break.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.

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.
