Description from owner

Description

Gull Cottage sits at the foot of Bamburgh Castle and has one bedroom and a sofa bed so comfortably sleeps up to 4 people.

At the rear of the cottage is a gate that leads to the Castle and village green (if you like cricket or croquet you're in luck!) and from there a 2 minute walk to the most stunning beach, perfect for family/we and me time - one to tick off the bucket list! Take your BBQ, take your beach gear and while away the hours - beyond beautiful.

The pubs, shops and restaurants are again a two minute walk from the cottage and all do amazing food.

Seahouses is a busier village and is a five minute drive away where you can get a boat trip to the Farne Islands home of the famous Grace Darling.

Sit and eat fish and chips and have an ice cream at the lovely harbour. Crazy Golf is a must! Bamburgh to Seahouses is about a 50 minute walk and takes in the stunning Northumbrian Coastline.

The area is steeped in history, too much to mention from our wild and rugged hills to our beautiful coastline, we do castles and we do them well and of course the Alnwick Garden, well worth a trip.

Gull Cottage is perfectly situated for a relaxing and fun week - don't take our word for it...... come and see for yourselves.

Maximum 2 Dogs are welcome at a fee of £20 per dog for per week
