Newton-by-the-Sea, a charming and largely National Trust-owned village, offers a peaceful and unspoilt retreat along the stunning Northumberland coastline. Situated on a private farm and just a short stroll from the beach, this idyllic and contemporary lodge offers couples or families the perfect spot for relaxation and seaside adventures with their canine companion, complete with a private decked area that’s enclosed for Rover’s safety.
Inside, the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner is designed to make the most of the spectacular countryside views, with large windows inviting natural light to flood the space. The kitchen comes fully equipped with everything you need to make cooking a breeze. Then, gather around the centrally placed dining table for a leisurely meal or relax in the elegant lounge, where large patio doors frame the scenic views. After a day at the beach, unwind on one of the cosy sofas with your furry friend at your feet and enjoy a movie on the Smart TV/DVD. Upstairs, the accommodation continues to impress with two light and airy bedrooms. The double bedroom offers a peaceful retreat, while the second bedroom, with twin beds, benefits from plenty of natural light streaming through large windows. A stylish shower room completes the first-floor layout. Step outside onto the private decking area, which faces southwest for sun-drenched afternoons and picturesque sunsets over the countryside. Ample seating is provided for al fresco dining with Fido by your side. For families, the property also features an enclosed children's play area. There is private parking for one car directly outside the property, with additional free parking nearby.
With Newton Steads Beach often featured in 'The Good Beach Guide', explore rock pools and bask on the golden sands, with your four-pawed pal welcome to join you year-round. The village is home to two pup-positive pubs, offering an opportunity to sample the Northumberland hospitality at its finest. For hounds with energy to burn, strike out along the coast path to the north or south and explore the Northumberland Coast National Landscape. Don’t miss a visit to Seahouses (8 miles), where your entire pack can catch a boat to the Farne Islands for a chance to spot puffins, razorbills and seals basking on the shore.
