About this property

Nestled within the seaside town of Embleton, Barmoor is a wonderful contemporary property with easy access to local amenities, making it an ideal getaway for a family looking to explore the coast and countryside of Northumberland. Park off-road and be welcomed into a sitting room with tasteful décor, stylish sofas and a woodburning stove, an ideal spot for putting your feet up after a long day of walking in the countryside. When mealtimes call, the kitchen/diner caters to all of your culinary needs, with many home-from-home amenities making cooking convenient, and you can enjoy your meal at the colourful dining table and chairs. As the evening wears on, freshen up in a spacious bathroom before settling down for the night in one of the three bedrooms, including a beautiful king-size with grey décor and large windows, a tasteful twin with a brown feature wall and homely artwork and a blue themed single with storage. A quaint garden creates a bubble of calm where you can enjoy the shrubs and ivy coated walls as you have breakfast in the sunshine, whilst your four-legged family member relaxes on the grass. Embleton is a great seaside town with a lot on offer for guests, where you can enjoy a hot meal in the sunshine at one of the tasty eateries, including Grey’s Inn, Blue Bell and Dunstanburgh Hotel, and there is a convenience store where you can stock up on essentials. Look out for wildlife at Embleton Quarry Nature Reserve before heading a little further to find Embleton Bay, a vast sandy beach from which you can see Dunstanburgh Castle. Further from the property avid walkers can find the Northumberland Coastal Path and the scenic Dunstanburgh Castle Walk, beginning at Craster. Make a family holiday to remember with a stay at the wonderful Barmoor.

The pretty village of Embleton is ideally placed for exploring one of the most attractive stretches of Northumberland's Heritage Coastline. A beautiful grassy path runs from the village to neighbouring Craster, alongside the sea and past Dunstanburgh Castle - the largest ruined castle in Northumberland. Embleton itself has a village pub and a local hotel, and there is an excellent range of amenities in nearby Alnwick. The gardens at nearby Howick Hall are open during the summer and are noted for their beauty, whilst Alnwick Castle and Garden are a 'must-see' when visiting the area. For the keen golfer, Dunstanburgh Links Course is about 1 mile away - just one of several excellent courses in the vicinity.
