Kirkside

An elegant 19th-century church conversion with west-facing gardens, located in the heart of Embelton and with easy access to the many wonderful coastal trails and quaint towns in Northumbria. This hideaway is ideal for older families and groups of friends seeking a restorative beachside retreat. Scope out the best eateries on your doorstep, such as the Dunstanburgh Castle Hotel located right across the road, then saunter along the picturesque, dune-backed shores of Embleton Bay, 500 metres. Venture North to Bamburgh, 7.5 miles, and spot the impressive castle ruins or trial the local delicacy of smoked kippers. Try your luck at the Dunstanburgh Castle Golf Club which was voted in the top 200 of courses in the UK, or sample locally sourced meats and goods at The Village Farm Shop.

This is a beautifully restored 1833 church boasting light-flooded rooms, original craftsmanship features, and contemporary touches. The rear entrance opens onto a hallway with a convenient cloakroom, leading through to the spacious kitchen and a utility room. Relax in the grand lounge area with plush leather sofas, arched windows, and a soaring wood burner stove - the inviting heart of the home. There is an additional side entrance with ample storage, leading to the garden. Retreat upstairs to the sleeping areas, consisting of an airy double room with an en-suite shower room, and a large mezzanine-style double room with exposed beams and a seating area. The main bathroom is also located on the first floor.

Enjoy mild afternoons in the garden with a patio area and outdoor furniture.
