Situated in the charming village of Acklington, this cottage is a great base for exploring Northumberland. The nearby Railway Inn offers locally sourced dishes and hosts Northumbrian music nights. A short drive away is the bustling port of Amble, where you can enjoy the marina, Sunday market, and water sports on the beach. Further north, the medieval village of Warkworth is known for its castle and annual Puffin Festival in May.
The cottage is all on one level, making it perfect for guests with limited mobility. The cozy lounge features a wood burner and entertainment options like DVD, CD, and iPod dock. The dining room offers views of the garden and another wood burner, while the modern kitchen includes all the necessary appliances. The master bedroom has a double bed and dual aspect windows, with a second double bedroom and bathroom completing the accommodation.
Outside, there is a fenced patio area with BBQ, a large grassed paddock with a bird watching/stargazing hut and fire pit, and football goals for outdoor fun. An outbuilding houses a tumble dryer, and bicycles can be securely stored in the outhouse. Off-road parking is available for 2-3 cars, making this cottage a comfortable and convenient choice for a relaxing Northumberland getaway.
