Dogs Welcome

Dogs are very welcome at the cottages, at a charge of £10 per dog per night.

Out & About

Miles of open sandy beaches with few restrictions on access for dogs, make Dunstanburgh Castle Cottages the perfect location for a break away with your four legged friends.

Great beach walks (with a pub stop for the humans) include a stretch North along the beach to the Ship Inn at Newton-by-the-Sea or South to the Jolly Fisherman at Craster, via Embleton Bay & the ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle – all accessed on foot directly from Embleton.

Most pubs in Northumberland welcome dogs to their bar areas and many have water bowls outside, so they can feel refreshed too.

A voluntary website Doggiepubs.org.uk lists many dog friendly pubs in the local area with a brief review.

On their Best Behaviour

Pets are very welcome and safe in our two large enclosed gardens adjacent to the cottages.

To maintain our high standards, we ask that owners adhere to our Pets Welcome guidelines and show respect for other cottage residents.

Bio-degradable disposal bags are provided as part of your welcome pack of supplies.

The cottage was great for the two of us and our dog.

Situated in a lovely location in the village of Embleton with a pub/restaurant across the road and two others a short walk away. A 15 minute walk from the sandy beach at Embleton Bay – great for walks to Dunstanburgh Castle, the village of Craster beyond and to Low Newton in the opposite direction. A wonderfully relaxing few days!

Lovely cottages in perfect location

We love these cottages so much! The location is perfect for exploring the Northumberland coast. The cottages are super cosy, clean and well looked after – with the bonus of being dog friendly. Highly recommend and we’ll definitely be back.

Great location and perfect little cosy cottage.

The area is beautiful and the cottage has everything you need. Well equipped with everything you need for self catering plus a lovely wood burner and convenient local shop. We loved it and have already recommended to friends and family. There are even electric car chargers around the corner which were a bonus for us.

Another great visit

We have stayed many times in the Rose Cottages where we have always experienced welcoming service. The cottages are lovely – well equipped, convenient for the splendid coastline and suitable for a visit at any time of the year. Will be visiting again soon!

Great Place

The Hayloft gave us the flexibility we needed with a dog – a simple, but well equipped studio barn conversion that worked really well for us – good standard, nice layout, ample space for dog cage. A good base for our first stay in Northumberland.
