Dovecote Corner, Amble, Northumberland
Overview
Dovecote Corner is an end-of-terrace cottage in Amble-by-the-Sea, offering a comfortable base for exploring the Northumberland coast. Sleeping four guests in two bedrooms and welcoming up to two pets, it suits a small family or a couple looking for harbour walks, beach days and nearby places to eat.
Beach-inspired décor gives the cottage a relaxed seaside feel, while the wood-burning stove makes the sitting room an inviting place to return to after a day outdoors.

Location
Amble is a working harbour town at the mouth of the River Coquet, with seafood restaurants, cafés, pubs and shops within walking distance of the cottage. The harbour, sandy beach and pier walk are also close enough to explore on foot.
Nearby Warkworth offers a medieval castle, independent shops and walks beside the River Coquet. For a longer outing, an approximately six-mile circular walk links Amble and Warkworth.
Head south for the beaches of Hauxley and Druridge Bay, or visit Hauxley Wildlife Discovery Centre for birdwatching. Seasonal boat trips from Amble offer views of Coquet Island and its seabirds, including puffins during the breeding season.
