With five double bedrooms comfortably sleeping ten people and all with luxurious en-suite bathrooms, Strawberry Hill View offers an excellent choice for the gathering of extended families and friends. Three of the double bedrooms (two with private dressing areas) are conveniently situated on the ground floor where views across open fields can be admired.The main living area is on the first floor; a spacious room with full height glass in the gable end to maximise the amazing views across fields to the sea and up the coastline towards beautiful Beadnell Bay.

The welcoming village of Embleton is less than two miles south, where there is a village shop, pubs and its own stretch of golden sands. The wide sweep of sandy beach that Beadnell Bay is renowned for is four miles north, a popular destination for watersports enthusiasts, including sailing, sea kayaking, wind surfing and scuba diving. Two miles further up the coastline, is the traditional fishing port of Seahouses, where boat trips to the nearby Farne Islands (famous for its bird sanctuaries and seal colony) depart regularly from its harbour and the picture-perfect village of Bamburgh, snuggled in the shadow of its majestic castle, is a further three miles north. Just a few miles inland, is the bustling market town of Alnwick, with its own dramatic castle (and film location for Harry Potter’s Hogwarts Academy). Visitors will enjoy a trip to Alnwick Garden; a spectacular interpretation of a formal garden, including the Grand Cascade waterfall and restaurant within the largest tree house in Europe!

We stayed at Strawberry Hill View for a week with all the family. We were a party of 10 including four grandchildren. The house is exceptionally large so there is more than enough space to accommodate everyone and their needs.The children loved the table football and other games provided. The beach is within walking distance and the garden is huge with plenty of space for outdoor games.The owner was also exceptionally friendly and helpful. We would certainly love to go back.

The house was perfect for a large group, especially as all the rooms are ensuite.The only things I would improve would be to try and put air conditioning in the lounge. Even though it wasn't that hot when we were there the lounge was very hot, perhaps partly because the windows didn't fully open (safe for people with small children but not good for letting a breeze in).It as wonderful to see the house martins swoop round the house and I am so glad that the owner is allowing them to nest there. Obviously this causes a bit of a mess on the picnic tables and decking so it would be nice if this could be given a quick clean before people arrive.We all loved watching the grass cutters at work (the family of rabbits!!)

Lovely cottage in great location with lots of space. We enjoyed watching the rabbits in the garden and neighbouring field.Owner very responsive on queries.Our only criticism is that the top floor was a bit too warm but everything else was marvellous.
