Nestled on the Northumberland coastline, less than half a mile from a sandy beach, this charming holiday home offers a tranquil retreat, perfect for families and small groups of friends. With one dog also welcome, make the most of your seaside surroundings, starting with a stroll to Seaton Sluice Beach (0.5 miles) to enjoy panoramic sea views, stopping for some bird and ship spotting at The Cut along the way. There are several pubs and popular seafood restaurants on the doorstep, and a range of shops close by. Visit the impressive Seaton Delaval Hall and fascinating Gardens, only 1 mile away. Explore the 19th-century St. Mary’s Lighthouse at low tide (2.5 miles), or walk the coastal path and promenade to Whitley Bay (3 miles). Spanish City (3 miles) offers cafes and restaurants with sea views for afternoon tea and dinner, and you can book a show at the local Playhouse.

On entry to this welcoming holiday home, step into the hallway where you can hang your coats and kick off your walking boots after a day on the coast path. Head through to the airy open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner – the social heart of the home. The comfortable seating in the lounge and a pebble-effect gas fire make it easy to unwind and watch a film on the Smart TV. The kitchen is well-equipped with plenty of useful appliances, including a small breakfast bar and two stools where you can sit and chat to the family cook, while coffee aficionados will love the premium coffee machine that awaits. Enjoy your meals sitting at the dining table, and after food, head through the French doors into the south-facing conservatory where you can relax on the sofa with a view of the garden and the visiting bird life. The three bedrooms are on the first floor; a king-size bedroom with fantastic sea views and a TV, a double bedroom with plenty of storage space, and a charming single bedroom with a sea view. Completing the property is the well-appointed bathroom with a walk-in shower and WC.

Outside, at the rear, there is a south-facing, enclosed garden with decking and artificial grass, and a bistro table and seating where you can enjoy al fresco food and drinks in the warmer months.

Beautifully furnished, decorated and presented property. Ideal location for exploring the lovely beaches, coastal walks to Blyth and Whitley Bay. Shops and pubs virtually on the doorstep so no negatives whatsoever, also dog friendly so if you take your furry friend with you there are plenty of great walks for them to enjoy too.

We really enjoyed our stay in Rocky Island View Cottage, the view was special and it was great being so close to the beach and coastal paths while at the same time being close to all the town's amenities like convenience stores and pubs. It was easy to park and the property was easy to find. The property was beautifully furnished and immaculately Read moreclean. We hardly used the car since the coastal walks were close and took us wherever we wanted to go. The beaches were wonderful, golden sands and never crowded, with opportunities to spot dolphins if you were lucky! Hide

A lovely house, a real home away from home. Beautifully presented and spotlessly clean with everything you could possibly need. The bed was very comfy with very good quality linen and towels. Dog towels in the porch was a nice touch. The area is great for exploring more of Northumberland but equally the local beach and walks were lovely with a coupRead morele of nice pubs within a few metres walk. I would recommend. Hide

Lovely, clean accommodation which was very well equipped for a short break. The area is great two with a couple of pubs very close to the property! The property is situated on a residential street but there was no issue with parking on the road outside during our stay. The location was great and close to Tynemouth and the centre of Newcastle was nRead moreot too far away. Hide
