Fabulous cottage
Located central to village facilities and close to the beach. The cottage is exceptionally presented from the lovingly presented and spacious rooms, to the front garden and west facing terrace. Will be rebooking for sure.

Superb accommodation for our family gathering.
Ideal to celebrate my wife's 60th Birthday with family. The house is fabulous, a dual aspect open log burner looks lovely, but the underfloor heating was so warm we never lit it! The lounge is spacious and comfy and is off the large kitchen diner, all mod cons inc.Bedrooms are fab, particularly the master with en-suite bathroom. Everything was spotless and welcoming. It's ideally placed for walks to the beach, golf course or 3 hotel/pubs which serve food. We can't recommend this enough!

A great early spring break
The Old Police House is warm a cosy after a day exploring the beaches of Northumberland with the dogs. We find it ideally placed for all of the Northumberland coast and it would always be on the top of our list if and when we return to the area.

Very comfortable, welcoming & such good location
Whole family were very content there & we had everything we needed, very good area, the only little annoying thing was there was a very awful smell from the en-suite bathroom that we could never get rid off.
