The Straw House is a stunning property in a prestigious development at Budle Bay, just over 4 miles from historic Bamburgh. Sleeping 4 guests in 2 bedrooms both with en-suite bath/shower rooms, this superbly-equipped cottage is decorated to the highest standard and is very popular with couples and small families alike. The Straw House welcomes one well-behaved dog, has private parking for 2 cars and an enclosed west-facing patio area. This property is very special and is a true indulgence for an escape to the coast. Free Wi-Fi and free digital guidebook.

The cottage is beautifully appointed in an ideal location. A short drive to the stunning beach at Bamburgh and close to Holy Island. Plenty of excellent places to eat nearby (Apple Inn at Lucker is well worth a visit). Would definitely recommend The Straw House.

Having a dog very sensitive to fireworks, Straw house made a lovely location to be away from any booms and bangs. The house is well equipped and very well maintained and welcoming.

The reason for marking comfort at 3 is that the heating to the cottage was set too low. During our stay the temperatures dropped and we found the system was not sufficient to keep the cottage cosy. We were led to believe that the system would stay on until 10.30am and 10.30pm but in fact it was set to go off at 9.30 on both times.
We would recommend this cottage to others but not at this time of the year.

An excellent property within reach of several places of interest. Just sorry we could only stop 5 days due to my poor health we had to return home. The owner was very helpful with medical information .
