Nestled within the beautiful Doxford Estate near award-winning Embleton beach, Swinney Cottage is a cosy county cottage, perfect for small families or friends and has been expertly converted.
Set over two levels, this Visit England 5-star Gold property is perfect for a special occasion, making memories to treasure and offering a stylish retreat with views through the dappled trees towards Doxford Lake from your private garden. Inside there is a separate living room, complete with a cosy wood-burning stove and unlimited logs, a haven of comfort on a chilly evening. Opening doors flood the space with natural light and open onto a private terrace, where you can enjoy a morning breakfast or evening glass of wine. The kitchen is exceptionally well-equipped, featuring modern appliances with everything you need to dine in.

Swinney offers far more than just a beautiful place to stay—it’s packed with entertainment including a Smart TV and Bluetooth Speaker. The large, detached Games Room (shared) is a standout feature, boasting a huge TV, football table, and air hockey, along with an activity space for basketball and badminton. Families will love the safe play areas on the Doxford Estate, including a games den. The stunning Doxford Lake is just a short stroll away, offering peace for a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine, sit on one of the Arbors and watch the swans and wildlife. Stroll around to Doxford Hall for a relaxing Spa or evening meal leaving the car behind.
Perfectly positioned to explore Northumberland’s breathtaking beaches and castles. Just a short drive to Embleton Bay, a vast stretch of golden sand backed by dunes, and the famous Bamburgh Beach, overlooked by its iconic castle. Beadnell Bay and Alnmouth Beach are also nearby, offering fantastic walks and stunning sea views. Newton by the Sea is 5 miles away with a National Trust beach and fabulous Micro Brewery. For history lovers, Alnwick Castle and Gardens are a must-visit, as well as the charming fishing villages of Craster, Seahouses, and Warkworth. Craster was a favourite of “Vera” often spotted in an episode, famous for the “kippers” and the walk along the cliff top to Dunstanborough Castle.
Further North is Holy Island where tranquillity awaits, discover the heritage of the Lindisfarne Monks, crossing the causeway to this famous little island. The cottage’s location offers easy access to the A1, a convenient base wherever your’ exploring. With its superb facilities, luxurious interiors, and prime location, Swinney Cottage promises an unforgettable holiday in the heart of Northumberland’s Heritage Coast.
These properties can be booked together to accommodate up to 48 guests.
There is open water in the property grounds.
