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.
