The cottage sleeps 2, is in a perfect central location for exploring the beautiful heritage coast or the Cheviot Hills. The bright, airy cottage sleeps two and is very well equipped to make your stay very comfortable and cosy. The garden is a sun trap and perfect for relaxing in after a day being busy. A perfect location for your well earned holiday with plenty to do whether it be visiting local attractions, surfing the waves, walking the hills or just plain relaxing. The view from the cottage over the valley to St. Cuthbert's Cave, is amazing and only a few miles away. We have ample off road parking adjacent to the cottage. With plenty of good restaurants and coffee shops in the area, with information in the cottage on the local tourist attractions, your holiday starts here.
