The bustling little seaport of Amble is situated at the mouth of the River Coquet and is an ideal place for exploring Northumberland. Historically a centre for boatbuilding, Amble offers a marina, a harbour, sandy beaches and coastal walks to the bird sanctuary at Hauxley and country park at Druridge Bay. Large fishing boats moor along the harbour wall and land a variety of fish, prawns, crabs and lobsters. There is a fish centre on the side of the harbour that is now primarily a shell fish hatchery to re-stock levels of lobster and other shell fish, this sells local fish and is open to the public. A mile south of Amble is Coquet Island, an rspb reserve with a large population of terns, puffins and eider ducks and boat trips around the island can be arranged. The pretty coastal villages of Alnmouth and Craster and numerous superb beaches are only a short drive away, whilst picturesque Warkworth with its castle, charming Alnwick with its castle and award-winning gardens, and the National Trust’s Wallington Hall and Cragside are all within easy reach.

Perfect location in Amble with all amenities on the doorstep, very comfortable and cosy bungalow with everything you need and lots of places nearby to visit.

The location is perfect with everything Amble has to offer right on the doorstep but still relaxed and quiet. We very quickly became regulars at the excellent cock n bull micro-pub, where the banter with the locals is hilarious and found a fab cocktail bar just a short stroll from the property. The owner dealt with the one issue we had during our stay immediately after making contact with them....thankyou
Ian
We also ate meals out there using a small table. The whole place was spotless. We appreciated the books, suggesting walks and the many others about the local area. Everything is on the doorstep for shopping, eating out and tripping out. We have booked to come back next year.
