Aidan Cottage - Beal

This cosy, stone-built cottage offers couples an excellent base for exploring a region rich in history and natural beauty. The mystical Holy Island of Lindisfarne is just a short drive away, accessible via a tidal causeway and home to an ancient priory, dramatic castle and peaceful beaches. Nearby Goswick Beach offers a wide stretch of golden sand for long walks and beach games, along with a popular golf club boasting sea views. Berwick-upon-Tweed is close by, with riverside walks, independent shops and galleries, and impressive Elizabethan town walls. Head to Bamburgh for its iconic castle and vast beach, or continue to Seahouses for boat trips to the Farne Islands — a chance to spot puffins, seals and even dolphins.
Step through the front door into a welcoming porch, ideal for storing muddy boots and coats after a day of exploring. The open-plan living space beyond is designed with comfort in mind, offering a relaxed setting to unwind. Sink into the sofa and enjoy a quiet evening in front of the Smart TV, cook up a good meal in the well-equipped kitchen, and enjoy breakfast or a quiet supper at the dining table. A ground-floor shower room provides added convenience, while upstairs, a romantic mezzanine-style bedroom offers a double bed and a skylight for stargazing from beneath the covers.
Outside, there’s a private enclosed patio with garden furniture, perfect for morning coffee or evening drinks. Guests can also enjoy access to a spacious shared garden with peaceful seating areas, a fire pit, orchard, and wildflower planting. A separate laundry room with washing machine is available for guest use, along with a thoughtfully equipped mudroom featuring a hot shower which is ideal for rinsing sandy boots, beach gear or muddy paws. Off-road parking is provided for one car, along with access to a shared EV charging point. While the location near the A1 means occasional road noise, it quickly fades into the background. For larger groups, three other bookable properties sit within the same site.
