If you're looking for the quintessential British seaside getaway, then look no further than this family-size home on the shores of the Northumberland coast. Just moments away from the harbour and the charming fishing village of Craster, you’ll be able to make the most out of your coastal location while at the same time taking advantage of the home’s many modern comforts. Cleverly designed to optimise the peaceful sea views, the home is upside-down living at its best. Upstairs, you'll be immediately struck by the high-end touch that's been given to this bright space – from the orange coloured dining chairs and sleek kitchen to the modern log burner. It's the perfect place to snuggle down with a good book when the wind picks up outside. With its skylights and balcony doors inviting sunlight to illuminate the living area, you'll enjoy a wonderfully bright and open home. When it's time to head out, you're twenty-one minutes from the historic Dunstanburgh Castle as well as Craster Tower. If a celebratory meal out is on the agenda, the village itself is filled with hearty pubs and seafood restaurants, as well as a lovely harbour, ideally suited for late-evening wanders with your loved... ones.

A landscape rich with history, you can explore the crumbling ruins of clifftop castles or tour restored and retained masterpieces at Bamburgh Castle and Alnwick Castle.
