Situated in a fantastic seaside position, capturing wonderful views of the enchanting Amble coastline and Coquet Island, this stunning seaside bolthole, nestled near the end of the headland in Amble, offers couples and families a truly peaceful retreat. The charming fishing town of Amble boasts a harbour filled with colourful beach huts, nestled around the River Coquet estuary at the southern gateway of the Northumberland Coast National Landscape. From the doorstep, you can reach the sands of a little beach on the shore or take a stroll along the promenade to Amble Harbour Village, half a mile away, where you’ll find quirky, independent shops, a weekly local market, bistros and an award-winning ice cream parlour. Those who love life on the water can enjoy a boat trip from Amble Harbour, just over half a mile away, to spot puffins and seals along the way to Coquet Island.

Leading on from the boot room, the contemporary kitchen with its sleek and stylish design will capture your imagination, inspiring you to rustle up something delicious with your fabulous local fare.

Accessed from the lounge area, sliding doors open into a lovely sunroom which features an amazing view of the sea, the pier and Coquet Island through the large floor-to-ceiling windows, the perfect spot to sit back and relax at the end of a busy day’s adventure. A handy utility room and a sophisticated, contemporary shower room complete the ground floor.
