Property code: OC-79891

Based in a quiet area, close to Craster’s main harbour, this holiday home was once a fisherman’s cottage and a great spot to get away from it all with family or friends – plus a much-loved dog. The village itself has plenty to offer, while the property has spacious communal areas and comfortable bedrooms. The sea views that the property benefits from mean that the house is sure to be the location of a memorable holiday for all.

Inside, the lounge is a bright and airy room, with wooden floors, comfortable seating and a wood burner where dogs love to warm up during nap time. The room also benefits from views towards Craster Harbour. In the kitchen, you’ll find everything you need to cater while on holiday – whatever your group size. There''s even another fireplace in here, housing a wood burner effect electric fire. The ground floor is also home to a large dining room, a handy utility room and a separate WC. Upstairs, you’ll find a double bedroom with harbour and sea views, and two further bedrooms, which are both twins. All guests can share the family bathroom or shower room. Outside, you’ll find a storage area in a lower-ground-floor room and a garden. It’s one of two gardens that does not have a dividing fence, yet is clearly marked. The property’s garden area has a BBQ and seating – plus those mesmerising views towards the sea.

One of the best bits about the location is being so close to the coast path, which will take you to Dunstanburgh Castle just over a mile away. Or you could keep things simple and just watch the hustle and bustle of the harbour, before enjoying a meal at the local dog-friendly pub.

The cottage was just as detailed in the description if not better! Above all very clean and with everything working! Parking for 2 cars was a bonus. Location was lovely, peaceful and relaxing. Great communication throughout the booking process and emailing of information for arrival day. Couldnt fault it all.

Beautiful cottage in a perfect location within the village. A cottage with sharp knives and gin glasses has to be a winner!

A well equipped cottage in such a peaceful spot. Sleeps 6 comfortably. We were a party of 5 and 2of the party had mobility issues and the information on the property meant that we knew the stairs may cause an issue, but the down stairs loo solved this. The ramp to the main road was invaluable to support accessing the car for our party, so much easiRead moreer than using the track at the back of the cottage, as this is where the parking is situated on a slope . All our party were happy with the location and cottage. Just a note the dining chairs are a little worn so we sank into them, but we solved that issue with cushions from the settee. These aided our card nights. Also the settees proved a little low for one of the party but a pillow solved that. The guest in question is in her early 80s , so we expected a few access issues. None of which spoiled our holiday. The cottage has a great view of the harbour from the sitting room, the garden offers a bigger sea view and the road has access to the walk to Dunstanburgh Castle, which the more able in our party did several times over the week. Even my 80+ year old aunt and 70+ mother- mobility issues managed a good distance on the level ish walk by the sea to the castle. The location is a great base for the area, nothing is more than half hours drive-Alnwick, Almouth, Amble, Bamburgh, Seahouses, Rothbury / cragside and Hawick were all visited. Youll be spoiled for choice. As I told a friend Ive found a new favourite place with amazing big skies. Craster is a little gem and I hope to be back to Hideaway. There were other cottages but I feel Hideaway has the best location. If you book it you wont be disappointed . Hide

The DVD player did not work, I had bought DVDs with us to watch and was unable to. The singe bed which I slept in in the twin room with the full sized wardrobe was very uncomfortable - too soft would recommend getting a firmer mattress. Also putting a double bed in the other twin room if possible would be much more preferable. Fantastic locationRead more and wonderful views. Hide
