This beautifully decorated cottage is a comfortable base for a couple’s retreat or a family getaway, and allows up to three canine companions. In a quiet location in the hamlet of Spindlestone, it’s perfectly placed for exploring the castles, beaches and scenic countryside of this fascinating area.
This cosy country cottage is set on one level and is welcoming for guests of all ages. Its bright kitchen/diner is a lovely space in which to cook while the rest of the group plays games or makes plans at the table. In the lounge, floral curtains and an open fire add to the rural ambience, while landscape paintings of the local area surround you. This is the spot to stream a movie, listen to some music or play a game, with your furry friends getting comfy by your feet. The bedrooms – a double and a twin – are really appealing, and completing the interior is a family bathroom with a separate shower. For fresh air and al fresco drinks and dining there’s a large garden (up the steps from the patio) set on different levels. It has a BBQ and outdoor furniture, bound to be a hit on long, sunny evenings, while anyone who feels competitive can head to the games room in the garage, which is shared with the neighbouring property.
The cottage is nestled within 0.75 acres of land in Spindlestone, 3 miles from the coastal town of Bamburgh. Take your furry friends for a run on the gorgeous beach which stretches all the way from Bamburgh to Seahouses, 6 miles, or do the 2.5 miles coastal walk from Waren Mill, 1 mile, to Bamburgh – it’s said to be the most spectacular in the UK. While you’re there, don’t miss a wander around the grounds of Bamburgh’s magnificent fortress castle, too.
