About this property

Whitesands, a beautifully-presented, detached bungalow is nestled near the coast in Beadnell, Northumberland. Perfect for family, friends, and even two furry friends, this property makes a fantastic base for exploring the beauty of Northumberland. Upon entering the abode, you are greeted by the heart of the home, the spacious kitchen/diner, where the designated chef can whip up some hearty meals prepared in the well-equipped kitchen and enjoy a games night around the dining table as a family. After a day of exploring the coastal surroundings, unwind in the inviting sitting room, complete with a Smart TV and a woodburning stove, perfect for keeping you toasty on those colder evenings. As the night draws to a close, head to one of the three stylish bedrooms, including a king-size with a TV and en-suite, a second king-size, and a twin room. Get ready for the day in style with a refreshing shower, or indulge in a warm bath, after a fun-filled day of activities. Step outside into the enclosed rear garden, where you can enjoy a moment of peace with a morning cup of coffee, or make use of the outdoor seating for a spot of al fresco dining. Embark on a journey to explore the charming coastal villages of Beadnell, Seahouses, and Bamburgh, each offering a unique blend of history, natural beauty, and seaside charm. Discover the sandy beaches and rocky coves of Beadnell, perfect for beachcombing and water sports, before heading to the bustling harbour town of Seahouses where you can take a boat trip to the Farne Islands and witness an array of seabirds and seals. Don't miss the majestic Bamburgh Castle, perched on a rocky outcrop overlooking the Northumberland coastline, offering breathtaking views and a glimpse into the region's rich heritage. Whitesands provides the perfect base for exploring the coastal gems of Northumberland.

This attractive and peaceful harbour village is situated beside one of the most beautiful stretches of Northumberland’s Heritage Coastline - Beadnell Bay. Established in Saxon times, Beadnell was once an important fishing village and a smuggler's haven. Nowadays, it is still a fishing village, but is equally popular with holidaymakers who come to enjoy its pretty harbour and, of course, the nearby sandy beaches. The village has a shop, two pubs and a café serving food. Popular Seahouses is just over a mile away and has shops, a supermarket and restaurants, and it also offers boat trips from the harbour to the magnificent Farne Islands - a haven for bird watchers. Bamburgh is close by, whilst the market town of Alnwick with its Castle and Gardens, shops, pubs and restaurants is a short drive away.

    Whitesands cottage was lovely, beautifully furnished with really comfy beds and bedding. The bungalow is very spacious with everything you could want. The heated drying rack was particularly useful. The bungalow was especially well suited for my elderly Mum who has mobility problems. The centre of Beadnell with a pub, hotel restaurant & bar and the Saltwater Cafe was a five minute walk and the Landings bar & restaurant and the beautiful sweeping bay and beach a ten minute walk. There is also a pizza takeaway at the beach car park which is open Thursday - Sunday.

    We brought bikes so the short distance to the beach was even easier. Lovely comfortable beds and linen in a quiet street with perfect access to the village. Large utility room also made for a practical family stay. Just one slight niggle that the family bathroom shower was a little weak. We will be booking again, thank you

    Tastefully decorated and exceptionally well maintained. In a good location too - within walking distance of beach, local pub and Seahouses where we got boat trip to Holy Island. Did manage to get three cars parked in drive too.
