About this cottage rental

Escape to the beautiful Northumberland coast in this warm, welcoming cottage. Newly renovated throughout with a modern luxury feel, Penguins Cottage is just a short walk to the beach and has stunning views of the sea, Holy Island and Bamburgh Castle.

Traditional, sandstone cottage with plenty of character and new, luxury interior throughout. Downstairs is the light & bright living room with its cosy fire, all-new kitchen including all the must-have kit, and all-new bathroom with large power shower. There is a also a small boots & coats room by the back door - perfect for getting back from the beach or exploring the outdoors! Upstairs are the two bedrooms, both made up with high-quality linen and new comfy beds. The large master bedroom offers a superking bed, as well as a chaise lounge for a quiet reading nook or just a chill moment to take in the views. The second bedroom can be made up as a twin or double room as you prefer.

Views of the sea from every room, as well as the rolling countryside, Cheviot Hills, and renowned local landmarks such as Bamburgh Castle.

Practical mod-cons included (free Wifi, Smart TV, Nespresso coffee machine, etc) as well as books to enjoy and a cosy fire in the living room. Fold-down desk & chair stowed away in a cupboard offer a quick solution for any guests who need a temporary work station (with a view!).

The Location:
Enjoy this peaceful spot tucked away on a quiet farm and surrounded by fields, but close to the historic town of Berwick-upon-Tweed and many other local highlights. Lots of stunning sandy beaches nearby, with the closest beach a ~15 minute walk / 5 minute drive from the cottage. Extensive walking & cycle routes to explore too.

Good base to explore Northumberland and the Borders. Beautiful scenery from the cottage, property was very clean and tidy, host was very accommodating. Recommend the Rocking Horse Cafe (Alnwick) and Potted Lobster (Bamburgh) for food. Also visits to Barter Books (Alnwick) and Heatherstill Mill went down very well with everyone.

Clean cottage with wonderful outlook on pastures and coast. Owner was extremely helpful, friendly and easy to contact. Newly renovated, comfortable beds, adequately equipped kitchen. Hope to return.

Had a kitchen with fridge. Beds were comfortable; however, lounge and kitchen furniture were really uncomfortable. Wash-Dry combo run time on Eco was over 7 hours; lucky we took clothes out early on drying cycle as they were burning hot. We would not recommend this rental property.
