Nice house, within walking distance of Amble. 2 parking places outside and an enclosed garden for the dogs. Not sure where 5 people would sit in the lounge. We were a party of 4 adults and 2 dogs and it was cosy. But great location for getting out and about and seeing Northumberland.

We had a lovely time at Pelican Rest the house is on a quiet estate and was very clean and equipped with everything we needed , a shower in the family bathroom would be a nice addition to save having to share the en-suite shower , there are loads of historic houses castles and beautiful beaches in less than an hour’s drive, plenty of restaurants and pubs for lunch or dinner to choose from and every where ate didn’t disappoint .

A lovely, well equipped house. Warm, clean and comfortable. The lounge was a bit small if there were 5 people but for 3 adults it was fine. A few minutes walk to the Amble Inn for food and a short drive into Amble for shops, cafes and pubs.
