Here you will find several charming tea rooms, quaint pubs and shops, and horse riding, fishing and golf are available close by. A further 3 miles up the coastline is the picturesque village of Bamburgh, which lies in the shadow of its majestic fortress and commands the power and presence of the seasoned television set it regularly becomes.

Just a few miles inland is the bustling market town of Alnwick, with its own dramatic castle and film location for Harry Potter’s Hogwarts Academy.

Really nice little place, needs a bit of tlc in places but comfortable and well-positioned for both Beadnell facilities and the wider area. The garden is secure and safe for dogs and children.We’ve been twice now and would happily come back.
