Couples seeking a peaceful base on the Northumberland coast will find The Den suits them well. This single-bedroom cottage sleeps two and sits in the village of Longhoughton, positioned between Alnmouth and Craster. Everything is on the ground floor, arranged around an open-plan living space with a woodburner, freeview television, and a sofa bed in the bedroom area. The kitchen has an electric hob and microwave; the ensuite contains a shower and heated towel rail.
A supermarket lies within a short walk, as does a coffee shop serving breakfast and cakes, and a dog-friendly pub with daytime food and an attached gift shop. Golden sandy beach is reachable on foot. The cottage comes with bed linen, towels and wifi; electricity is included. One car can park on site. A welcome pack is provided. No smoking is permitted.
The wider area offers day trips in all directions. Alnwick town centre is nearby with independent shops, restaurants and cinemas, while Alnwick Castle and its gardens draw many visitors. The Heritage coastline stretches for twenty miles as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with access to villages including Warkworth, Bamburgh, Seahouses and Beadnell within a short drive.

Clean and comfortable if a little old fashioned in our eyes. Good location with plenty to do in the area. Some great days out walking the coast with lots of inns, cafés and restaurants around. Nice to have onside swimming pool. Only criticism, which mentioned to owner, that blackout blinds or curtains needed in both bedrooms.

St Dolmen App @ Northfarm Cottages The whole compound looks brand new, it’s clean and tidy everywhere and just beautifully build within old farm buildings, granery etc. The apartment was top notch, the bathroom truly luxurious, the view over the fields to the sea and Duncaster Castle stunning. They have a public swimming pool and some houses even have private jacuzzis. Everything was what you want except from a luxury holyday home. But what made it special for me was there eye for the detail: on arrival there was a loaf of bread and some butter, fresh milk & orange juice, all locally sourced, as well as coffee, tea and sugar already provided. Especially on late arrivals that’s such a plus and was an unexpected surprise. Well done North Farm Cottages! Over all a great experience. The whole compound is very kids and family friendly, loads of room to play and roam freely for your little ones but still very quiet at night. At last: yes, St Dolmen Apartment IS A ROOF TOP ROOM WITH SLOPING ROOFS. I am 1.79m (5‘‘8ish) and had no real trouble with it, to be honest and unless you are really big or really drunk you shouldn’t have either. However, the stairs leading to the apartment ar pretty steep and there’s no elevator…

Such a beautiful tranquil location with gorgeous sunsets, sea views and stunning walks in the countryside. The hot tub and pool were a wonderful treat too. Great base for reaching Embleton village, local beaches in walking distance, Seahouses, Bamburgh Castle, and Alnwick castle/gardens. Thank you for a lovely week!
