The Northern England / Northumberland region


Northumbria beaches have to been seen to be believed. There are many castles to explore where history comes alive.
Northumberland has traditions not found elsewhere in England. These include the rapper sword dance, the Clog dance and the Northumbrian smallpipe, a sweet chamber instrument, quite unlike the Scottish bagpipe.
Northumberland also has its own tartan or check, sometimes referred to in Scotland as the Shepherd's Tartan. Traditional Northumberland music sounds similar to Lowland Scottish music, reflecting the strong historical links between Northumbria and the Lowlands of Scotland.
The Seahouses area
North Sunderland is set back from the main town of Seahouses which makes it ideal for exploring the wonders of the Northumbrian coast. It is also only 20 minutes to Berwick and the Boarder county.
The cottage is 20 minutes to Alnwick to the south and the same to the north and you are in Berwick. Bird and wildlife enthusiasts are five minutes to The Farne Islands, with the Cheviot Hills and National Park also close by.

Guestbook for Poachers Retreat
Has been an excellent break in Northumbria in no small part due to this very attractive house....Thank you for the cake, bread, lemon curd, tea, coffee ect - lovely touch and very welcoming great information books and maps.
What a truly wonderful house. 10 adults and six kids! We have had both houses Hastings and Poachers Retreat they are really fantastic. Spotlessly clean, comfortable, warm, cosy and equipped to a high standard.
Thank you so much for this perfect holiday home! Happy New Year and we are all refreshed and ready to start our New Year. Truly outstanding holiday.
This is our first holiday with our two beagles Alfie and Jasper who are 3 years old and we would like to thank you for making them so welcome. The house was perfect and we knew they were safe. Our teenage son and his friend appreciated the lovely cake in the welcome pack as they were very hungry when we arrived. The house was perfect with everything we could want as well as being to a very high standard. We thoroughly enjoyed the beaches which are beautiful and perfect for the dogs and body boarding!!. Bamburgh and Alnwick are beautiful. Thank you once again for a lovely week.
