Region: Northumberland is a heady combination of fishing villages, market towns, sandy beaches, magnificent castles and historic Hadrian's Wall, tied together by beautiful countryside and abundant wildlife.

Town: The pretty village of Embleton is ideal for exploring the Northumbrian Heritage Coast. It is served by four pubs, two of which serve food. Grey's Inn also has 3 open fires, making a winter pint a cosy experience. The Embleton Heritage Trails Project consists of 6 trails to help you explore the history and heritage of the village. The trails range from a short walk around Embleton to a six-mile trail that takes you into the tranquil countryside. On the yellow sand of Embleton Bay near the sand dunes is a large grey rock called 'Bathing Rock'. A little to the northwest of this is the famous 'Vanishing Rock' on which the name 'Andra Barton' is carved. Barton was a Scottish pirate, killed in a sea battle with the English in 1511. Embleton is also within easy reach of other local attractions, such as Alnwick Castle and Dunstanburgh's golf course.

Wonderful property and location

These holiday cottages are in a simply wonderful location, quiet and away from it all whilst being close to many local activities. Plenty of nearby villages and beaches, with pubs serving great food at good prices. Whilst we booked Rock Mill Cottage we ended up in Newton Retreat, a fantastic place, set overlooking fields with their abundant wildlife. The host was great, friendly and informative upon arrival, then discreet but available if needed after that. We loved waking up to birdsong from the adjacent fields, looking out over the farmland, and the feeling of isolation. The weather could have been kinder - but could also have been much worse! We’d love to return some day.
