The Old Wash House

The Old Wash House is in Amble. It's a single-storey stone cottage, built a long time ago, probably for the big house next door. It's now a studio for two people.

It's got a 3 Star rating, so it's clean and comfortable, not luxurious. Everything is on one level, which is handy. There's one main room with a kitchen area, a sitting area, and a bed. The bathroom has a walk-in shower. The wi-fi is good.

You get a private garden out the back. It's enclosed, which is good for dogs. There's a fire pit. I've left some wood for you.

The cottage is on a quiet lane but you're only two minutes from the harbour. Amble is a proper working harbour, not just a holiday place. There's a good fish and chip shop, a few pubs that do food, and a Co-op. The Sunday market at the harbour is good for local bits and bobs.

For a walk, you can go straight out onto the beach. Druridge Bay is about a ten minute drive south. It's a long, empty beach. For birdwatching, the Hauxley Wildlife Discovery Centre is just along the coast. Boat trips to see the puffins on Coquet Island leave from the harbour in season.

Alnwick is about fifteen minutes inland by car. The castle is there, and the famous gardens. Further up the coast, you've got Bamburgh Castle and Holy Island, both within half an hour's drive. The whole coast is part of the Northumberland Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Dogs are welcome, up to two. Bedding and towels are included. There's parking for one car right outside.
