  • "What a lovely cottage, lots of space , warm and everything you need is there, including a welcome hamper."

    Cottage is located beside a road and beside the pubs carpark and I was a bit worried about noise. It's not noisy at all! It is so quiet. The owners messaged us to let us know we could get in cottage early which was great after a long journey. During our stay we had a problem with the shower but the problem was resolved within hours and on a Sunday with no inconvenience at all. A beautiful area to explore and eating places close to cottage. Thank you Susan and Norman for a lovely holiday

    Thank you for the positive feedback. Property Owner

  • "Beautiful cottage, which has been renovated to a very high standard, is in a great location from which you can explore the delights of Northumberland."

    Situated in the centre of the village you have a couple of pubs and a coffee shop to choose from if you don't want to cook. The kitchen at O'Neil's is really well kitted out with all the equipment you need and more if you fancy cooking though! We had the benefit of really nice weather and would sit out in the garden (there are two seating areas front and back) enjoying a morning coffee before we went out for the day. Walk through the village and go down to the beach with its rock pools, go to Seahouses and take a boat trip, or visit Bamburgh Castle, Dunstanburgh Castle, Berwick Anwick and more, before coming back and relaxing in this lovely cottage. The two welcome packs, one for us and one for our dog, were fab! Would definitely stay again.

Beadnell is perfectly located for sightseeing and visiting all the AONB. The cottage is right next to The Craster Arms, where the fish and chips is a must. The owners Susan and Norman have gone above and beyond to make our stay really comfortable. We’ll definitely visit again, if we can get booked!

Lying at the heart of Beadnell, Northumberland in the Northumberland Coast AONB is O’Neil Cottage.

This idyllic, Grade II listed, stone-fronted cottage benefits from off-road parking, close proximity to the beach and affords the use of a front and rear garden with furniture and an open-plan living space with sleek appliances and contemporary decor.

Enter into your new home-from-home and snuggle up on the plush leather sofa, browse the films available on the Smart TV while your partner pampers you with a romantic meal in the fully-equipped kitchen.

Enjoy this together at the breakfast bar, or delight in an alfresco affair in the rear garden; the perfect place to soak up the last of the sun with a glass of wine in hand.

When sleep calls, climb the stairs to get some well-earned rest and relaxation in the spacious king-size bedroom; the room is furnished with plenty of storage and serviced by a bright well-appointed shower room.

O’Neill Cottage lies paces away from the village pub, The Craster Arms where you can treat your loved one to a special meal and celebratory drinks, there is also a nearby village store to ease your self-catered stay.

Spend a sunny day at Beadnell Bay Beach, a wonderful spot for sunbathing or splashing around in the sea; and no trip to the seaside is complete without indulging in fish and chips!

Check the tides before driving up to Holy Island where you can immerse yourself in local history at Lindisfarne Priory’s medieval monastery ruins, the island also houses the impressive 16th century Crag-top Lindisfarne Castle which boasts expansive views across the sea and the opportunity to watch seals.

Take a scenic drive to Alnwick where Harry Potter fans will be in their element as some scenes were filmed in the historic and beautiful Alnwick Castle; those seeking a truly unique opportunity can visit The Alnwick Garden which runs guided tours through the Alnwick Poison Garden.

About the location

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.
