Overlooking Embleton Dene with fabulous views from both the bedrooms and garden, this cosy cottage is the perfect base for exploring the striking scenery and endless attractions of the Northumberland Coast. Embleton’s shops, pubs and restaurants are all less than half a mile away, and a short stroll leads you to the pristine sands of Embleton Bay (1 mile). Framed by the dramatic silhouette of Dunstanburgh Castle (2 miles), this arc of golden beach is one of the true gems of the North East coastline. Golfers can admire the same views from the Dunstanburgh Castle Golf Course, less than a mile from your doorstep. Follow the coastal path to reach the fishing village of Craster (3 miles), famed for its smoked kippers, gallery and picturesque harbour. A little further south lies Rumbling Kern (4 miles), a hidden former smugglers’ cove.
Inside, quirky design features and seaside-inspired artworks are seamlessly blended with exposed stone walls, wooden floorboards and original doors, creating a home full of character. The entrance hall is ideal for kicking off boots and storing walking gear before stepping inside. On the ground floor, two spacious rooms await – a charming eat-in kitchen and a welcoming lounge. The lounge centres around a wood burner set within an old inglenook fireplace, with plush seating, a Smart TV, Bluetooth speaker and a stack of board games for cosy evenings in. The kitchen, with its pastel-painted cabinets and sturdy wooden breakfast table, offers everything needed to prepare hearty meals – perhaps using locally caught fish. From here, access the utility room with laundry facilities and storage, as well as a handy ground-floor WC. Upstairs, discover two beautiful bedrooms and a family bathroom. The master bedroom boasts a king-size bed and superb views, while the second offers a versatile zip-and-link bed, adaptable as a super-king or twins. Completing this floor, the bathroom features a free-standing Victorian claw-foot bath and underfloor heating for a luxurious touch.
Outside, the thoughtfully landscaped garden is as appealing as the interiors. A long lawn, colourful flower beds and a paved patio with outdoor furniture set the scene for sunny stays, while a secure shed offers safe bike storage. For al fresco dining, an Ooni pizza oven and BBQ are provided. Finally, private parking for two cars ensures complete convenience.
