Description

Choose this stylish, three-storey townhouse as a base for your family or group and you’ll be rewarded with plenty of living space and excellent views over Links Beach and the sea in Northumberland’s Amble. This seaside fishing town is in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty: walk along the small, sandy beach or the coastal path which passes the River Coquet to admire the scenic nature. Swing by the harbour to sample the quirky shops in wooden pods. There are plenty of local seafood restaurants in town to enjoy, as well as cafes and pubs to while away afternoons. Fancy a day trip? Catch a boat towards the protected RSPB reserve of Coquet Island which is home to puffins. Warkworth (2.5 miles) is also worth a visit - and it’s accessible along the coastal path, if you fancy the walk. The village boasts an impressively long beach and a historic castle which you can go inside.

A ramp leads to the front door of this three-storey holiday home, which has plenty of living space across the ground floor that's open-plan, but areas feel separate due to the layout. The kitchen is spacious and contemporary with its grey flooring. There's a dining area here with trendy pendant lights above a table and eight bright, velvet-style chairs. French doors beside the dining area lead to the garden. A narrow stretch of room - with a stylish, bright sofa that makes this area another place to relax - opens up to the lounge, which has plump seating and a TV. The ground floor also has a utility area with a washing machine and a handy WC in a cloakroom. You'll find the most impressive living area on the first floor with its two comfy sofas facing full-width, floor-to-ceiling windows that lead to the balcony, with views towards Links Beach and the sea. Vibrant wall art and pendant lights add style. The first floor also has a double bedroom, a room with bunk beds and a bathroom with a shower over the bath, ideal for families. Up on the second and final floor, you’ll find a double bedroom with an en-suite shower room (including a small step into the shower) and a sea-view, king-size bedroom, also boasting an en-suite shower room with a step into the shower.

There’s generous outdoor space at this property. The first-floor balcony, accessed via steps through the living area, has seating and those impressive coastal views. There is also a fence enclosed rear garden (reached via one step through French doors from the dining area) featuring a lawned area and a patio area with an L-shaped garden sofa and a coffee table.

  • 4 bedrooms - 1 king-size, 2 doubles, 1 bunk bed (the bottom bunk is a 4’ bed and the top bunk is a single bed)

Reviews

The cottage location was great, the view from the 1st floor living room was beautiful, this has got to be the best one we have stayed in yet, would love to go back in the summertime.

Mrs C,

Good location, great views and good size property that comfortably accommodates 8 guests (we were 6 adults and 2 children) But the house needs a deep clean and needs more attention to detail. This could be a very good holiday property but we were disappointed that the bifold doors to the balcony were broken on our arrival - they would not close properly causing a security issue. A builder then a locksmith were arranged. Despite changing locks so the doors could be closed, the locksmith thought we shouldn’t open them as the problem was more with the doors than the lock. So a holiday without the main standout feature of the property of the balcony, although we still had the view. Disappointed to find when we stripped the beds that there were NO mattress protectors. Although it looked clean enough on arrival, much of the property required a proper clean - fridge, dishwasher drain, underneath furniture, under sofa cushions.

Mrs T,
