Miss Copeland
Sandstrath is a lovely holiday home with every modern convenience. Clean, comfortable and very well equipped. A great base for touring the Northumberland coast and further inland too. The view from the back of the house is lovely and the antics of the cows and sheep are very amusing! Our cocker spaniel was most put out when he spotted a cow peering over the garden wall trying to munch one of the shrubs!
