Known as the friendliest port, a warm welcome awaits- simply park your car and enjoy everything from the doorstep within a short stroll. Wander down to the harbour and see the fishing boats at work, stroll along to the marina and little beach, where you will find some pretty beach huts that you can rent from the harbour master. Around the harbour’s edge are some great fish restaurants and a varied selection of eateries, coffee shops and ice cream shop within the town. The historic village of Warkworth is only 2 miles away, which is a lovely walk. A popular place to visit, with its fabulous castle dominating the skyline, a selection of good pubs, bespoke shops and galleries and riverside walks. The beach is nearby and a fabulous place to go and walk. The market town of Alnwick, with its cobbled streets and famous castle, is a 15-minute drive away. The beautiful Alnwick Gardens are worth a visit, where you will find the world’s largest treehouse restaurant, beautiful displays and cascading waterfall. Explore further north on the Heritage Coast and you will come to the seaside village of Seahouses with its beautiful beach and selection of pubs, shops and fish restaurants. You can take a boat trip from here to the Farne islands and Holy Island. Just a short distance from here is the picture postcard village of Bamburgh with tea shops and restaurants, a magnificent castle and amazing beach walks.

One of the cleanest places we’ve stopped . A 10 minute walk to the harbour.

Wayside is a comfortable and deceptively spacious 3 bed cottage which is very clean and well equipped. The location is ideal for visiting places all along the Northumberland Coast. Would visit again at some point and would recommend to family and friends.
