"Views towards Bamburgh Castle over harbour and sea - within two miles of Beadnell's sweeping sands . . ."
With fine views across the little harbour and its working quayside (not Gull's Crest or Crag End), Farne House Cottages are within a few hundred yards of the shops, restaurants, inns and other amenities of the fishing village and colourful seaside resort of Seahouses. Converted and refurbished to extremely high standards throughout, the properties here are grouped around a central courtyard only yards away from a fine indoor heated swimming-pool and sauna. Available all the year round, the pool has a constant depth of 4ft6inand features a south-facing glass sun lounge to one side. Within easy walking distance, the bustling harbour boasts a fleet of brightly painted fishing cobbles and a few larger boats, and the town itself provides a good range of facilities, including golf, sailing and horse riding. There are calm weather boat trips to the offshore Farne Islands, a wildlife sanctuary for puffins, oyster-catchers, kittywakes, guillemots and grey seals. The 28islands form a nature reserve owned by the National Trust and, though half of them are submerged at high tide, landing is allowed daily in summer on the largest, Farne Island - where there is a nature trail, lighthouse and 14th-century chapel. At Beadnell, 2miles to the south, the dune-backed sands of Beadnell Bay provide ideal conditions for water sports. Formerly an important fishing village and smugglers' haunt, Beadnell now enjoys areputation as a centre for sailing and has the unique distinction of being the only East Coast port with a west-facing harbour. The sandy beach running the length of the bay is safe for swimming and is overlooked by 18th-century lime kilns. In the village stands a three-storey, 16th-century peel tower, which now forms part of an inn. Five minutes' drive to the north of Farne House Cottages stands the mighty fortress of Bamburgh Castle, easily visible across the wide stretch of sand from Seahouses. Just a few miles further on is yet more historical, natural and scenic interest at Holy Island. Here, the fairytale Lindisfarne Castle was first a 16th-century fort, then a ruin which was redesigned by Edwin Lutyens in 1902and is now owned by the National Trust. Inland is a country of massive hills and moors, fast rivers and great forests. Between the Cheviots and the sea, there is easy touring through fields of corn and pastures dotted with solid stone hamlets and lined by dry-stone walls which patchwork the countryside.

SUPERB INDOOR HEATED SWIMMING-POOL AND SAUNA: The seven cottages at Farne House enjoy the use of a superb indoor heated swimming-pool provided for the exclusive use of only these cottages. Available throughout the year, and open daily for guests' use from 8am-10pm, the pool has a constant depth of 1.2m (4ft 6in) and has been designed to the highest specification. It is heated and benefits from the latest purification and de-humidification system. With its sunny, south-facing glassed conservatory lounge to one side, this all-weather facility makes Farne House a fine choice for a Northumberland coastal holiday, whatever the season.
OFF-SEASON HOLIDAYS AND SHORT BREAKS: Out-of-season holidays: when the dramatic coastline and magnificent inland hills and moors exhibit a wildness and grandeur quite different from the Summer months. Walks and days out in the Autumn, Winter and early Spring are all the more enjoyable when awelcoming return awaits at these very comfortable and cosy properties. All are fully heated and available all the year round for both weekly holidays and Short Breaks of two, three or four nights. And, of course, the indoor heated swimming-pool is open 14 hours a day throughout the year.
