This attractive and peaceful harbour village is situated beside one of the most beautiful stretches of Northumberland’s Heritage Coastline - Beadnell Bay. Established in Saxon times, Beadnell was once an important fishing village and a smuggler's haven. Nowadays, it is still a fishing village, but is equally popular with holidaymakers who come to enjoy its pretty harbour and, of course, the nearby sandy beaches. The village has a shop, two pubs and a café serving food. Popular Seahouses is just over a mile away and has shops, a supermarket and restaurants, and it also offers boat trips from the harbour to the magnificent Farne Islands - a haven for bird watchers. Bamburgh is close by, whilst the market town of Alnwick with its Castle and Gardens, shops, pubs and restaurants is a short drive away.

Only criticisms are the en-suite toilet is very hard to flush and the TV is very small for the size of the room. Apart from that everything ok.

The location was absolutely perfect - couldn't get any closer to the beach. The welcome pack was gratefully received and the dog treats were a godsend because we had forgotten to pack them. Only 2 very minor complaints; USB sockets would have been useful. Luckily one of our group brought an adaptor, and a bread knife would have been nice. Otherwise a perfect holiday home from home.
