This beautiful, well-designed cottage ticks all the boxes for your family break by the seaside. Park up in the integral garage and unload while the dogs enjoy snuffling the courtyard garden, before sinking onto the sofas in the first floor living room to take in those views. Dog-friendly pubs and beaches are just steps away from the property. Adventures from breezy boat trips to historic castles are all within easy reach.
Entering the modern kitchen via the garage is a real plus when bringing in soggy dogs and sandy children, and you can get stuck in dishing out snacks and drinks while the kids sit at the table spreading out their beach hauls. There’s a family sized fridge-freezer so no need to take up valuable family time shopping every day, and the electric oven, hob and microwave will make cooking a breeze. Once everyone is re-fuelled, maybe even bathed in the downstairs bathroom, head up to the lounge and relax with a film, while the dogs take up residence in front of the electric fire. On warm evenings, open up the French doors to the Juliet balcony and listen to the roll of the ocean and the fishermen bringing in the catch.
The location is spot on and Fido will be tugging you down to the sandy beach, just half a mile away, the minute he sniffs that sea air. Northumberland has acres of space for your furry friends to run free, with rock pools for the children to explore, and walks along the sand or the coastal path to neighbouring beaches like Bamburgh and Beadnell, both 3 miles away. Wander the shops and cafes in the village, hop on a boat trip to the wildlife rich Farne Islands, or take the dogs and explore the historic ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle (10 miles).
