It has a great choice of pubs and restaurants, all within walking distance of our holiday cottages. Embleton is most well-known for its wide sandy beach with magnificent views of Dunstanburgh Castle, which is also dog friendly. The dramatic ruins provide a picturesque backdrop to the magnificent beach, great for a those who love capturing holiday snaps, or who simply enjoy taking in a view. After a long day of exploring the castle, coastal path or beach, head to one of Embleton’s many delectable pubs and restaurants for a well-deserved meal. Local favourites include the Sambuca Blue Bell, a family run Italian restaurant and the Greys Inn, a Cosy pub with a fire - perfect during a winter getaway. Just the same as in Craster, our Embleton Cottages are in prime location for exploring this friendly little village and are sure to make for the perfect home-from-home.
