Forming part of a beautiful collection of 22 cottages, this characterful four-bedroom property combines modern comforts with unique, traditional features. Set within the Northumberland Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this is the perfect place to enjoy the many activities it has to offer, including some fantastic walking and cycling routes. A beautiful sandy beach is a short stroll through the dunes, while the village of Beadnell, with its many water sports, is 5 miles away.

Double doors reveal the impressive lounge with six large windows and there are some fascinating hints of the building’s history as you enter this spacious circular area, which features intricate, exposed beams of the original farm ‘gin gang’, often known as a wheelhouse. The comfortable seating and wood burner makes this a wonderful room for you and your guests to unwind, while catching up on the day’s events and making use of the TV/DVD and CD Player for entertainment. One of the four bedrooms, a double, is located on the ground floor, with dual aspect windows, a dressing table, wardrobe and an en-suite shower room with WC. You’ll also discover a handy separate WC on this level. Head upstairs where a restful night’s sleep awaits in the second double bedroom with en-suite shower room with WC, as well as two further twin bedrooms. The main bathroom is also on this floor with bath and WC.

Step outside to relax in your garden area, while enjoying a little alfresco dining. Younger members of the family will love the outdoor children’s play area on the site with swings, slides and a climbing frame which is shared with other guests.

Excellent location is ideal for family holiday with the beach on your doorstep. Would recommend booking a session with Surf Northumberland, Scuba Steve and Farne Island tours. Lots of nearby attractions for days when the beach doesnt appeal with shops, cafes and excellent fish and chips.

Bed was a bit hard in the downstairs bedroom and water pressure for the shower was a bit low and caused temperature variations. Overall though we all really enjoyed the Old Barn and had a great holiday there. Location next to the beach was great and whats not to like about the Northumberland coast.
