The magnificent coastline this region is renowned for is a mere 4 miles away. Embleton offers a wide expanse of golden sands, and Beadnell Bay, very popular with water sports enthusiasts, is only 5 miles from Tynely Farm. A beautiful walk from the fishing village of Craster, past the historic Dunstanburgh Castle and along the golden sands to Low Newton-by-the-Sea, is highly recommended. A further couple of miles up the coastline brings you to Seahouses where there are tea rooms, shops and a choice of pubs and restaurants, and of course fish and chips. Boat trips to the Farne Islands, famous for its bird sanctuaries and seal colony, depart regularly from its harbour.
Three miles further north is the picture-perfect village of Bamburgh, dominated by its majestic fortress. Holy Island can be seen from the unspoilt golden sandy beach. Travelling 7 miles inland from Tynely Farm is the market town of Alnwick where there is a wide choice of facilities available. Alnwick Castle and Gardens is well worth a visit. Tynely is a small hamlet situated about a mile east of the A1, giving easy access to explore this stunning part of north Northumberland and the Scottish Borders too. Beach 6 miles. Shop 4 miles, pub and restaurant 6 miles.

Beautiful, tranquil stay. The hosts were excellent from the get go - gave some great local recommendations. The Den had everything that you could need. Great location, and amazing views. Already recommended to others and would love to go back.

We’ve just come back from a lovely short break at The Den and had a really great stay. It’s glamping done properly – cosy, clean and really well set up with everything we needed. The open-plan living space was comfortable and the whole place felt welcoming from the moment we arrived. The welcome hamper was a lovely touch and very much appreciated.The hot tub was definitely a labour of love getting it up to temperature, but it was absolutely worth it once we were in — such a nice way to relax in the peaceful surroundings.It’s in a beautiful, quiet spot on the farm with countryside views, perfect for switching off. We visited Bamburgh which was stunning, and also spent time in Alnwick. We loved The Alnwick Garden, Lilidorei and a browse around Barter Books — all well worth a visit.A big thank you to Helen, who was so friendly and helpful and made us feel really welcome. The only small suggestion would be an airer for hanging wet swimwear — it was a bit of a mission getting things dry in the winter months along with the towels. The bathroom and shower cubicle are a great size and could probably handle an airer stored in there which could be left for the day stood in the cubicle to dry everything off.We’d definitely stay again and would happily recommend it for a relaxing Northumberland break
