Sustainable Property
Sustonica, the first global sustainability standard for holiday lets.
Our aim is to create lasting holiday memories and we intend to do so both responsibly and sustainably.
To deliver on this we've set out a number of environmental and social pledges which help to focus our efforts;
you can read more about them in our Impact Report.
This is why we've partnered with Sustonica, the first global certification for holiday lets,
to support our owners to be more sustainable.
The Sustonica certification focuses on four key areas: energy conservation, water conservation,
waste reduction and promoting inclusiveness. They are on a mission to become the most widely
recognised sustainability standard for holiday rentals and a catalyst to reduce emissions of holiday
lets and influence guests to reduce their own household consumption too.
Properties that display the Sustonica badge have successfully passed the criteria,
which align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Global Sustainable Tourism Council standards,
and their owner has made a commitment to look after our planet as well as you.
"Four of us enjoyed a lovely short break at Donni Cottage."
The cottage has everything you need for a short, or long stay, and is perfect for pets, having it's own fully enclosed garden. The owners were there when we arrived and were very welcoming. Really handy for The Craster Arms (literally next door - NO noise or 'smells' issues) and Beadnell Towers, a one minute walk away. Both serve really lovely food and are dog friendly. Also really handy for local cafes, restaurants etc and a leisurely 10 minutes walk to the beach. Would highly recommend Donni Cottage and will definitely be back. Thank you Susan and Norman for a lovely stay!

"We had a lovely couple of weeks at Donni Hall."
The cottage is beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. Very comfortable and cozy!
The property is in a prime location for exploring the wonderful Northumberland coastline and countryside, and is adjacent to the Craster Arms, a superb pub which serves great food: we’d recommend their Sunday lunches! There’s also the Beadnell Towers Hotel close by which also serves excellent food.
Susan and Norman were very helpful and we’d like to thank them for the lovely welcome pack and for responding so promptly to a couple of our questions.

"Absolutely lovely property."
Has 2 wonderful gardens which allowed us to make the most of the weather and were perfect for our 2 dogs. Really good location next to the Craster Arms which does nice food and brilliant ice cream sundaes!! The kitchen is well equipped and beds comfortable. There’s parking for 2 cars and plenty of storage space in the bedrooms. The location is great - either to pop over the road for a drink or dinner, or to go off exploring in the local area. Despite being next door, there’s no noise from the pub.
We had a brilliant week at the cottage!
Thank you ,for your review. Greatly appreciated.
Kindest regards Susan and Norman.

A beautiful, spacious and very well equipped cottage. Appreciated the secure parking and garden for our dog. Brilliant location only 15 minute walk to the bay with a great dog-friendly pub next door for dinner and a few options for lunch/ coffees. Great communication with owners who are contactable if required but who otherwise let you enjoy your stay. Would certainly book again.

Very clean with a lovely welcome basket. The only negative is the beds were a little uncomfortable, so would benefit from a mattress toppers. Not really a negative but the toaster kept tripping the fuse because it must be faulty. But we had a lovely stay. It’s ideally located in a beautiful part of Northumberland. We will definitely visit again.

Where you’ll be staying
BEADNELL
Seahouses 1.5 miles; Bamburgh 5 miles.
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.
