  Catching up with family

  Left on 12/18/2009 for a stay in November 2007
  
  

  Embleton is a wonderful peaceful, safe village, the cottage was just what we wanted, we watched the fireworks for November 5th from the front garden, the weather was fantastic for the time of year.
  It's quite easy to pick up the A1 for visits further North and Alnwick, a very quaint town within easy reach.
  Of course I'm biased I was born in Northumberland and just think its the most wonderful county.
  There isn't anything I can find fault with.

  Peaceful week at Easter

  Left on 12/18/2009 for a stay in April 2009
  
  

  Our second visit to this charming cottage with its individual layout. The village and location once agin provided the perfect respite from a hectic city life. Local eating places remain outstanding and a real reason to go back again and again.

  THE Cottage in October 2009

  Left on 12/18/2009 for a stay in October 2009
  
  

  This holiday started from the time I telephoned the owner to say, we were coming. The cottage is in an excellent position, and the village is everything you could want. A relaxing yet very interesting historical and picturesque area. Walk on the beach or paddle in the water Embleton has the best beach ever. The walk to Craster via Dunstanburgh Castle is yet to be beaten - IT IS FANTASTIC!. The only downside is having to leave.
