This is a great house for friends or family. Beautifully presented with very comfortable beds, sofas and chairs. The location is excellent for walking the coastal path, and Craster was quiet and welcoming, with good food at the Holly Fisherman. Even blue skies and sunshine! Thanks to our hosts for a great stay.

A Memorable Stay for an 18th Birthday Celebration

We stayed here as a family to celebrate my nephew’s 18th birthday and had a fantastic time. The property was clean, spacious, and very well equipped — perfect for a family getaway. The garden was a real suntrap and a lovely place to relax. The thoughtful welcome pack from the owners was a special surprise. It’s an ideal base for exploring Northumberland’s stunning coastal path, castles, beaches, gardens, and the stunning Farne Islands. We also loved sampling delicious treats from the local smokehouse. We would highly recommend!

Beautiful coastal residence.

Excellent accommodation for our group of 8 with various needs. Very close to the quaint harbour and coastal walks. Spotless interior with all you need. Only suggestion for improvement would be to have larger cooking pots to cater for large groups, and somewhere to hang 6 towels for the main bathroom.
