    “We had a lovely week at Avocet Cottage Its location is perfect for exploring Northumberland coastline The sea view from our bedroom was beautiful.”

    A good place for bird watching, dog walking and exploring the beaches and pubs nearby. The Retriever and Lab were welcomed everywhere and ran on the beaches every day much to their delight. The cottage was very comfortable, clean and well equipped. The information provided by the owners was really useful and they were very pleasant and helpful when we had a query. The cottage is set in a quiet hamlet with nothing to disturb the peace. We will definitely return on our next visit to Northumberland

About the location

BAMBURGH

Seahouses 3.5 miles; Beadnell 5.1 miles; Alnwick 16.9 miles.

The village’s sweeping sandy beaches and dramatic fortress - Bamburgh Castle - make Bamburgh one of Northumberland’s major visitor attractions. The castle can be seen for miles and dominates this part of the county’s coastline. Today it remains home to the family of the great Victorian industrialist Lord Armstrong, and is open to the public on a daily basis. Although overshadowed by the great castle, Bamburgh village is picturesque with neat grey stone cottages facing a manicured village green. There are excellent pubs, hotels with restaurants and a small selection of village shops. There are golf courses in Bamburgh and nearby Seahouses, and within easy reach are more wide sandy beaches, lovely fishing villages, stunning castles and coastal islands to explore along the dramatic Heritage Coast. There are numerous other attractions also a short drive away, including the famous Alnwick Castle and Gardens and the historic walled border town, Berwick-upon-Tweed. A superb base for exploring Northumberland.
