About this property

Shorethwaite - a coastal retreat that sleeps 5 guests in 3 bedrooms

Welcome to Shorethwaite!

A three bedroom property that has been beautifully finished with your luxurious stay in mind, conveniently located near the town centre and stones throw from Amble Harbour. There is a stunning newly fitted kitchen including both dishwasher and washing machine, Bosch gas hob and retro fridge freezer which leads into the tastefully appointed dining room where the table comfortably seats six people next to the Inglenook fireplace.

The living room has been tastefully designed with two very comfortable sofas, all ready to settle down for a movie night or relaxing after a busy day at the beach.

Upstairs there are three sumptuous bedrooms and a lovely family bathroom, making sure that you are well rested and ready to go for your day visiting the coast and castles. If you find yourself wanting just to kick back and relax in this lovely house you can head to the courtyard for a coffee and a read, or a glass of wine and a bite to eat cooked on the bbq.

Shorethwaite is a perfect base for exploring the stunning Northumberland Coastline.

A great little place in Amble

Fantastic little cottage in Amble. Feels very homely and welcoming. Fantastic location. The welcome gifts were a nice little touch. The only draw back is parking. On busier days it wasn't always possible to park directly by the house but it wasn't a major issue.

Beautiful accommodation

We really enjoyed our stay at Shorethwaite, the house was beautifully presented and very comfortable with everything you need for a week away. The bottle of wine was a really nice touch and the house was a real home from home. Stays York were really good too, regarding communication and assistance with booking. I would definitely use them again. We would also definitely stay at Shorethwaite again if we return to the area. Would highly recommend.

Great location and lovely stay

We had a lovely stay overall. The house is in a fantastic location, the décor is beautiful, and the beds were really comfortable. Parking was a little tricky when we first arrived, but once we’d parked, the cone provided to reserve the space outside the property was a great idea. The only reason we marked cleanliness down slightly was because the cleaner didn’t leave until around 10 minutes after the 4pm check-in time, so the floors were still soaking wet when we arrived. There were also a few cobwebs in the bedrooms, and the barbecue was left very dirty with rubbish from previous guests, so we had to clean it ourselves before we could use it. Overall though, we really enjoyed our stay and would happily return.

Lovely House in a central location at Amble

House is well equipped and very clean. The location is absolutely central in Amble and i would recommend it, even for people with pets, as it was ideal for our Dog.
