Overview
Property code: OC-GD0185

This contemporary detached home is perfect for a large family or group of friends to enjoy a getaway on the Northumberland coast. Set on the edge of the village of Beadnell, it is within a couple of hundred metres of a fine sandy beach. The centre of the village is about 1 mile from the house and offers a small range of pubs and a convenience store along with a takeaway fish and chip shop. The bustling seaside town of Seahouses is just 2 miles away and is a lovely place to visit. The town has a great range of shops to browse as well as many cafes, pubs and restaurants to choose from. Head to the working harbour to see its fishing fleet or take a boat trip out to see the wildlife-rich Farne Islands. The coastal village of Bamburgh is 5 miles away with its impressive castle overlooking the bay.

The house is set in a generous plot and features a lovely open-plan living area spanning almost the whole downstairs. This bright and airy space has plenty of windows letting in the natural light and wooden floors throughout. To one end, comfortable seating is arranged around a fireplace equipped with a wood burner. At the rear of the space is a charming cottage-style kitchen along with a long wooden dining table where the whole group can gather for meals. Two sets of French doors open from the dining area onto the garden beyond. Also on the ground floor, there’s a utility room with garden access and a useful downstairs cloakroom. On the first floor, guests will find all four wonderful bedrooms and two bathrooms. The master bedroom features a king-size bed and its own en-suite shower room. There is a second king-size bedroom with a TV, two twin rooms, and the beautiful family bathroom, which offers a shower over the bath.

Outside guests will find a fenced-in garden with a fantastic lawn. The patio is set up with a table and chairs for enjoying your meals alfresco.

The house was very comfortable and warm during cold weather but we did have to do some initial cleaning on arrival. We didnt take the dog though it would have been ideal. The reason that I wont book again is because I am elderly and it will be my last trip to Northumberland. With just a few yards from the beautiful beach it couldnt have been bettRead moreer situated and from fhe property there were numerous places to visit within easy driving distance. We visited the pub twice and the meals were good but the fish and chips bar in Beadnell could not have been beaten,, delicious. The weather was very mixed and cold and we were a little unprepared though it didnt prevent us from enjoying our visit and we went hope with very happy memories. Bamburgh Castle and Alnwick gardens will stay long in our memories. Thank you for making our visit so comfortable . Hide

We loved our week at Driftwood cottage and our dogs were on cloud nine. Great dog proof big garden and a minute from the huge dog friendly beach. It was bliss. The lady in the catering van nearby is delightful too and the Craster arms does lovely food . We will be back I hope

We were very pleased to see new crockery since our last visit. It was disappointing that there was evidence of previous occupants which had not been cleared away. We would happily book again for the comfort and location.

Driftwood Cottage was very well equipped. The beds were comfortable and the outdoor seating area was a great sun trap. We even had a couple of wild rabbits in the garden, which was lovely! The cottage is about a 20 minute walk from Beadnell village centre which has a general store, a charming church and a couple of pubs. But the main reason for staRead moreying at Driftwood is the location. From the cottage to the beach is about 1 minute walk. Beadnell beach and bay is fabulous. Miles of flat, sandy beach. There is a small harbour and distant views of the coastline with a castle. There is parking for 2 or 3 cars at the front. Our dog loved his stay there and was exhausted every evening after his runs on the beach. Hide
