Drifters

This is Drifters, in Amble. It's a first-floor flat in an old building from the 1820s. It was a pub a long time ago. We've done it up so it's comfortable now, but you can still see the age in the walls and the windows.

It sleeps four, in two bedrooms. There's one bathroom with a shower. It's got a 5 Star rating, which means it's well-equipped and clean. The parking is round the back for one car, and there's space to lock up bikes.

You're right on the main street in Amble. It's a working harbour, so there's a bit of coming and going. The flat is double-glazed. You can walk to everything, really. There are shops, a couple of fish and chip shops, and some pubs about five minutes away. The harbour's good for a wander, and there's a market on Sundays.

Warkworth is just over a mile down the road. The castle is the main thing there. Alnwick, with its castle and the big gardens, is about a fifteen-minute drive north.

Up the coast, you've got places like Seahouses for boat trips to the Farne Islands, and Bamburgh for its castle and huge beach. Holy Island is further north too, but you must check the tide times for the causeway. We keep a tide table in the flat for that.

In terms of kit, it's all there. Washing machine, dishwasher, WiFi, towels and bedding are included. There's a TV. The facilities list has the details.

For planning trips, these are useful: Northumberland Coast National Landscape, National Trust North East, and English Heritage North East.
