The whole property was beautifully presented and very comfortable. The short walk to the beach was fantastic and perfect for early morning dog walks. The fully enclosed front and back garden was also a great plus with the dog, and larger than expected. Such a wonderful location to explore the Northumberland coast, just a pity we were only there forRead more a week. We really enjoyed our stay, thank you! Hide
