Cosy creature comforts, glorious views and fantastic outdoor spaces make this home-from-home the perfect place to escape to. Leave your everyday routine behind and enjoy a taste of waterside living with your canine companions welcome too. Sitting by the picturesque Craster Harbour, wake to the ebb and flow of the tide before sipping a mug of something warm in the garden to kick start your day.

Step inside where you are greeted by light rooms filled with ambience. Put your feet up in the lounge as furry friends sprawl out by the coal-effect fire. Give their tummies a tickle before curling up with a book or switch on the TV and catch your favourite series. The sleek kitchen invites you to rustle up tasty treats in style before plating up at the charming dining table. Raise a glass to making memories to last a lifetime and then wrap up and head outside for a drink on the patio. The patio is blooming with beautiful flowers, a wonderful spot for a moment of peace and fresh sea air. When eyes become weary and heads are heavy, climb to the first floor where you can find three bedrooms. Before slipping into bed, treat yourself to a soak in the bath. There is parking available for three cars.

Once you have explored the local Craster Harbour, make the 10.5-mile journey to nearby Seahouses Harbour where you can jump on a boat to the Farne Islands. Admire the magnificent wildlife on the islands before returning to the harbour for a tasty portion of traditional fish and chips. Roam the coast path and chase sticks as you hunt down the marvellous Dunstanburgh Castle.

The location of this holiday let cannot be faulted, overlooking the harbour and straight out onto the costal walk. We had a comfortable stay but do feel the house could require some modernisation but we also appreciate the price for a week in August reflects that its not the most up to date of holiday lets, All in all a good base camp for a week ofRead more exploring Hide

The cottage is in an ideal location and was very comfortable albeit in need of modernisation to a standard which one would expect these days.

This cottage is in a fantastic location and we would be tempted to come again. Brilliant sunrises can be viewed from 2 bedrooms and the living room. The back garden is a sun trap with flowers and shrubs giving it a peaceful area to relax. Interior a bit dated. But then so am I.

You could not ask for a more stunning location, a couple of mins walk to the local dog friendly pub, lovely and warm house, spent many hours watching the sea, enjoying a cuppa, would definitely return.

Another lovely week in Craster, our second time in Harbourside. A really comfortable house with everything you need. Superb location, lots of walks at any time of the year, great pub, shame the cafe hasn't been let yet though. Treat yourself to something from the amazing gallery in the village. Will look forward to returning.
