About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Comfy, spacious house, great base for couples and families, dogs welcome.

Located in the heart of the village of Embleton, our holiday house offers easy access to everything beautiful Northumberland has to offer.

The house is a 1 mile, safe and easy walk to the beach and Dunstanburgh Golf Course and 500 yards from the village centre. The house provides walkable access to the village shop, garage and playpark as well as the Dunstanburgh Castle Hotel, Grey’s Inn and the Sambuca Blue Bell.

Whether you have come to see the castles or build a sand one, cycle, golf, play, surf, walk or wild swim, the house is a great base from which to enjoy your holiday.

The house sleeps 5 and has 3 large upstairs bedrooms, one king, a twin and a single, and a family bathroom. All single beds are full size and bedding and towels are included although we ask that you bring your own beach and/or dog towels.
A travel cot is available and can fit comfortably into any of the bedrooms. We do not provide cot bedding as we feel little ones and carers settle more quickly with their own.

Downstairs our cosy living room leads into a small conservatory and out into the back garden. The living room is stocked with a selection of maps, books, wooden bricks and train track, jigsaws and board games along with a TV with access to a DVD player and Amazon Prime. WIFI connection is fast and included which keeps all ages happy!

Our well-equipped kitchen/diner has a walk-in pantry and fridge, a dishwasher, microwave, toaster and kettle, along with a smoothie maker and toastie maker (perfect for easy lunches and snacks after a day at the beach). The dining table comfortable seats 6 and a highchair can be provided.

The front door opens into a spacious hallway leading to the kitchen/diner and the living room. Our side door entrance leads off the drive into a tiled boot room and utility area with a washing machine and fridge/freezer and leads onto the downstairs toilet, boiler room and kitchen.

With off street parking for 2 cars, a front and back garden and an outside tap, the access to the house makes for easy loading and unloading from a day at the beach with sandy children, dogs, surf boards or golf gear.

Lovely home in great location for exploring Northumberland
One of the best equipped and homely homes we've stayed in. There was everything you could need and lots of homely touches. A great base for exploring the area, in easy driving distance of many sights. Very comfortable beds and plenty of room for a family of 5. Only minor thing was we had to wash a lot of the dishes and cutlery etc before use, but that was probably down to previous occupants not cleaning dishes properly. It wasn't a big problem though and we would definitely recommend

Lovely 2 week break
The house is beautifully decorated. The bedrooms are lovely. Also big! We didn’t have children with us but would have been happy if we had- there were lots of books, games, toys, train set , high chair etc . The house is equipped with everything you could possibly need. The location is good- lovely nature reserve over the road, and the walk down to the gorgeous beach is nice, down past the golf club and through the dunes. The walk to the castle is more robust and the path was very muddy so we were slipping, but in the warmer weather it would be dry . It’s a very beautiful walk. The road through the village leads to Seahouses , Bamburgh, Holy Island etc. There is a nice farm shop in the village, and a friendly little shop within the petrol garage where we picked up essentials. We had a fabulous Sunday roast in the Dunstanburgh Castle Hotel. The location was perfect for visiting the surrounding area and also to chill and enjoy the Bay on non car days. We can’t wait to return.

Home from home
Nice house, central for all the places we wanted to visit. Plenty of space for family of 4 adults. Well equipped, nice little touches (hand wash/WU liquid/Washing powder, etc.) Lovely comfortable beds and clean, crisp bedding. Only downside was the smell of dogs downstairs and on occasions noisy neighbours (raised voices) Feel the carpets would benefit from a deep clean. We would happily book for another stay.
