For dogs who love the great outdoors, look no further than this handsome stone cottage in Northumberland’s National Landscape. Just a tennis ball’s throw from the coast, with a magnificent beach 3 miles away and some long-distance walking routes even closer, this property provides the perfect base for packs seeking plenty of time outside and endless adventures. Along with up to three four-pawed friends, the holiday home accommodates three guests in one spacious bedroom – ideal for small families or couples looking for a bit of extra space.
Stop off in the shared mudroom on-site and give mucky pups a good clean in the hot shower. Suitably refreshed, let your pups sniff their way into the lovely lounge/diner, a spacious, open-plan room with comfy seating for relaxed evenings or mealtimes. The kitchen is just next door, roomy enough to pop your pets’ bowls down and keep them fed and satisfied. The shower room is also on the ground floor, just off the kitchen. Upstairs, you’ll find a triple bedroom with a double and a single bed on the mezzanine floor. Each morning, having woken from a restful sleep, wander down to let the dogs out into the secure patio, allowing them to play while you sip your coffee. Elsewhere on-site, shared gardens and private parking are also available.
Have a ball exploring the wonderful Northumberland Coast, discovering magnificent seaside spots that seals and seabirds call home. Cross the Holy Island Causeway (2 miles) to reach Lindisfarne (6 miles), admiring the castle, priory, and the delightful scenery that surrounds them. A little further along the coast, Bamburgh (11 miles) is a beautiful place to visit, with a wide, sandy beach where pets can play with their tennis balls while you admire the castle in the background.
