Well equipped and comfortable. Although the shared bathroom does not have a traditional shower, it dies have an extendable integral shower head, so no problem. It is in close proximity to an excellent hotel restaurant and bar and two great pubs. Great place.

It is a very attractive property, both inside and out; and is clean, spacious and well furnished. The bedrooms are all large and the beds are comfortable, and there was plenty of downstairs space to accommodate all 3 generations of the family . The location is excellent, with stunning views over the fields towards Dunstanburgh Castle and the sea. The lane leads to a beautiful sandy beach which the grandchildren loved, and access to the coastal path. Embleton is a lovely village with an impressive farm shop, a nice hotel, 2 pubs, a well equipped childrenâs playground and even a nature reserve. The owner was very helpful and always responded promptly, and I have no hesitation in recommending No6 Sea Lane.
