The Cabin is situated about a 15 minute walk outside Beadnell which means it is quiet. You can sit in the sheltered garden after cooking on the BBQ and look over to the sea and enjoy your wine that Sam has left you and enjoy the cake that she left too. Everything you can possibly want for your holiday is here in the cabin. It is very dog friendly so Walter my dog had dog bowls, a bed, lead, and even a toy. Everywhere around here is dog friendly as the hotel owner told me that if people were not dog friendly they would go out of business!
The nearest sizable shop is at Seahouses for the Co-op but it is good for a wander and fish and chips! Bamburgh is great, free parking and a long beach. There is lots to see in this area and you can travel about 30 minutes to Alnwick to see a great Castle and gardens and if you like books then a trip to the second biggest second hand book shop in Britain is a must visit that's in Alnwick too. Take the dog they are welcome with dog bowls and plenty of coffee for you too. Look out for the train going around over head in the second part of the shop!
I honestly can't praise the Cabin enough, you can still smell the pine as it was only built last year and it is beautifully kept, you are provided with games (just in case it rains and it did for us but nothing to spoil the visit) a dvd player and even a few dvds to choose from. Lots of leaflets telling you about the local area and places to visit. If you haven't been to Northumberland before this is a good place to base yourself and the accommodation is first class.
If you are staying with children I would say you would need to take the car down to the beach they would be too tired to walk back up the road if you have had a good few hours there but they would have loads of fun.
As you can tell I had a fantastic time on my stay, all my family came over the time I stayed so it was very special, you don't need a lot when you have great company but the cabin and Northumberland certainly made it extra special.
thanks to Sam and her family for giving us a great welcome with cake, wine and milk and a lovely cabin.
If you unsure, book it, honestly its great.
