From the owner

If it’s a romantic coastal self-catering escape you’re looking for, Anchor Cottage is for you. (IF ANCHOR COTTAGE IS BOOKED, PLEASE SCROLL DOWN THE LIST OF CRESSWELL COTTAGES TO LOOK AT PELE VIEW COTTAGE - NEWLY RENOVATED AND RIGHT NEXT DOOR TO ANCHOR COTTAGE !) Anchor Cottage is the perfect retreat for a couple with king size bed, but can sleep up to 4 as it has an extra twin bedded room. Luxuriously appointed, this idyllic cottage boasts breath-taking uninterrupted views across the North Sea, and is a stone's throw from 7 miles of sandy beach at Druridge Bay. In this stunning retreat for all seasons, panoramic windows frame the changing tides, while glass Juliet balconies shelter you from the breeze without detracting from the views. Relax with a glass of wine and enjoy captivating sunsets. This jewel of a cottage has been painstakingly renovated to offer a 5 star romantic sanctuary in which to unwind. The attention to detail is faultless, from the stripped beams, wood burning stoves and exposed stonework to the beautiful furnishings, flat-screen TVs, wi-fi and dimmer lighting. There is a modern bathroom with bath and a beautiful separate shower room. At the front, there is a pretty cottage garden with a wooden bench facing a medieval Pele tower, while at the rear there is a rock garden and a second wooden bench strategically placed on the “Bank Top” (the water’s edge) from which you can enjoy unrivalled sea views. Cresswell village is at the southern end of Druridge Bay, a tranquil and unspoiled 7 mile stretch of golden sand. Located mid-way between Newcastle and Alnwick, the cottage is perfectly situated for touring Northumberland, a region steeped in history with many castles, stately homes and gardens all within easy reach by car. Bird watching, walking, fishing, cycling and golf are all available locally.

Please note : prices quoted are on the basis of a couple only. There is an extra charge of £150 per person per week for each additional adult. There is also a fuel surcharge of £60 per week between October and March, to help with our rocketing electricity bills! If your party is more than two people, please contact us for a quote. Short breaks (3 or 4 nights) are only available at the owners' discretion, and are only available between October and March, and not during school holidays.
