With all the seaside attractions nearby and a lovely modern interior to return to at the end of each day, choose Victoria Cottage for your next getaway. Boasting three well-presented bedrooms, as well as a glistening family bathroom, this dwelling is suitable for families and friends. The master super-king-size room even has a zip/link bed so you can be flexible with your sleeping arrangements. The kitchen downstairs and to the rear of the cottage is beautifully decorated, with a tiled floor and integrated units, perfect for cooking up a storm for the whole family.

Then head through to the sitting room to spend a quiet night in with your loved ones, play a game on the console or watch a bit of TV. A warm summer's day can be enjoyed out on the patio, which is thriving amongst green shrubbery and plant pots, the ideal situation for a drink and a read of the paper. This charming town is bustling with pubs, eateries and its marina on the seafront. All along the coast, you have some fabulous attractions such as Warkworth Castle, strolls along the scenic Druridge Bay and boat trips to Coquet Island to spot colourful puffins in the springtime.

House was well equipped. Only negative was it could do with a stick blender in the kitchen. Great gas cooker as we eat in. Shower position a bit challenging when hair washing. For the money it was very good and we would come back.

The enclosed garden was great for our dog and it was a bonus to have private parking. The extras left for us on arrival (bread, butter, milk, tea, coffee & biscuits) were very much appreciated. The cottage is very spacious and comfortable and was very well equipped. We hope to be back in the future.
