Waking up to the cry of gulls and the gentle lap of the sea, holidays in Northumberland don’t get much better than this. Fortunately, with space for up to six people and your ‘goodest boy’, this harbourside cottage in Craster will get the woof of approval from the whole pack. Fill each day with family fun and explore all the delights this part of the world has to offer, from games of fetch by the shore to afternoons learning about local history at Dunstanburgh Castle to evenings tucking into fresh fish (and tasty chewies too!).
Seriously stylish with industrial undertones softened by layer upon layer of luxury, this five-star retreat will quickly win you over. Boasting superb views of the harbour and sea beyond, its sumptuous interiors are rivalled only by the moving portraits it offers of the world outside. Wake up in one of three bedrooms – each is matched with a bathroom, so everyone can take their time. Once refreshed, the kitchen will beckon for drawn-out breakfasts, delightful in summer when the French doors open to meet the harbour. For rainy days or early evenings, the magazine-worthy lounge with its picture window and come-hither seating will be too hard to resist. Pop a film on or listen to the Bluetooth speaker as your dog snoozes in front of the wood burner.
With a choice of inside dining and a patio with outside seating, you can rotate your meals with the seasons and make the most of the beautiful setting. That said, if you fancy some time off cooking, Craster enjoys a selection of eateries, including a great dog-friendly pub less than 30 metres away. Whether your dog is a senior citizen or an energetic pup, we’re sure they’ll love exploring the local dog-friendly beach too, less than 0.5 miles away.
