A charming 18th-century cottage on Holy Island, an oasis of calm just off the Northumberland Coast AONB. Perfect for a family or group of friends, the dog-friendly cottage features an inviting lounge, a spacious dining room and a small patio garden to the rear. It is the ideal base for absorbing the cultural, historic and natural attractions across the island and the Northumberland itself.
The two-storey cottage is one of the oldest properties on the island and sits across from the village green, home to a tree planted by HM The Queen back in 1958. The cottage’s interior is cosy and cheerful, with original features including oak beams found throughout. Curl up with loved ones or a good book in the lounge, a beautifully lit area that comes into its own when the wood burner glows. The nearby kitchen is the perfect place to experiment with local ingredients, with plenty of room for long, indulgent meals in the spacious dining room opposite. When everyone on two legs decides to call it a day, ascend to the comfort of any one of the cottage’s three bedrooms - a spacious king-size bedroom, a bunk bedroom or a twin bedroom. Guests can recharge as required in the nearby shower room. The small patio at the rear of the property is just the place to plan for the day or enjoy refreshments in peace.
Holy Island has an impressive array of dog-friendly spaces, including the beach and various pubs and cafes. The island’s priory is dog-friendly, and guests take their dogs around the impressive castle. On the mainland, the beach and the village of Bamburgh (15 miles) await, and there are further shorelines, walking routes and a Dark Sky Park within 10 miles.
