Holiday Cottage - Red Steads Farm Cottage - Howick, Craster

3 Bedrooms (Sleeps 5) ~ 1 Dog welcome ~ Regret no smoking ~ 10 mins walk to beach ~ Regret no children under 3yrs

A light and bright mid-terraced farm cottage, Red Steads has delightful views across walled gardens and out over open countryside.

The working farm is on Lord Howick's Estate and is accessed by a private road. Rather than drive to the coast, why not walk across the fields and down to the beach. There is a path that leads down to Sugar Sands, Howick Cove and around the corner to Rumbling Kern and on to Craster.

Close at hand is Howick Hall and Gardens, with their amazingly colourful rhododendron displays. Perhaps end your visit with refreshment at The Earl Grey Tea House - home of the famous tea. The National Cycle Route lies at the end of the drive and takes cyclists up and down the Heritage Coastline.

Only 15 minutes drive away is Alnwick, home to the famous Alnwick Castle, Alnwick Garden and the venue for entertaining festivals throughout the season.
