    “On our arrival we thought how lovely it looked- on the surface.”

    Once inside we found long blonde hairs and crumbs on both sofas, cobwebs and huge spiders everywhere and thick dust on headboard and bedroom doors. The grouting on the floor in marble bathroom was really disgusting and yellow and all chipped. The carpets in both bedrooms heavily worn and badly faded. I had to look for the vacuum before I did any unpacking. There was also a dirty tissue at the side of the bed on the floor

The property

Embleton 3 miles. A detached, single-storey, south-facing cottage in tranquil, unspoilt countryside, three miles from Embleton and the picturesque former fisherman's hamlet of Newton-by-the-Sea, on the Heritage Coast, which is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Developed to a high specification and offering breathtaking countryside views, this cottage near Newton-by-the-Sea is perfect for couples or families to enjoy that long-awaited break. This Newton-by-the-Sea cottage features luxury accommodation; individually styled and furnished by the current owners to offer state-of-the-art living and character features including open beams, trusses and floor-to-ceiling windows. The living area at this Newton-by-the-Sea cottage is spacious and bright with a toasty woodburner and doors to a south-facing veranda, an ideal place to sit with a glass of wine and watch the sun descend behind the Cheviots to the west. The living area exudes real style, and the bespoke kitchen includes a Rangemaster cooker with five induction rings, unique black granite sink and worktops and a freestanding central island unit. The bedrooms in this Newton-by-the-Sea cottage have both been tastefully furnished with great attention to detail. The king-size double bedroom with en-suite marble wet room has doors to a patio area overlooking fields and the burn, which gurgles past on its way to the sea at Embleton. The second bedroom has a super king-size zip/link bed; this can be two singles if required so it’s suitable for couples or children, with a marble en-suite wet room and fabulous freestanding cast iron bateau bath. Outside this Newton-by-the-Sea cottage there are two areas for sitting, a lawn and the property nestles on the edge of the owners’ seven-acre smallholding; the fields are there for your enjoyment and there is a small play area with swing in the croft field. This Newton-by-the-Sea cottage is in a superb position for local attractions. Three of the best eateries in the area are just a short drive away, and the rest of the delights of Northumberland are all within easy reach, including the castles of Warkworth, Dunstunburgh, Bamburgh and Alnwick, and those empty, long endless golden beaches, are just waiting to enchant you. This really is a very special Newton-by-the-Sea cottage, and the perfect destination to chill out and recharge in peace and tranquillity. Note: This property is next to Refs. 1153 and 1786, and together they sleep 12.

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.

Please note: Car charging is not permitted at the property.
