The pretty village of Embleton is ideally placed for exploring one of the most attractive stretches of Northumberland's Heritage Coastline. A beautiful grassy path runs from the village to neighbouring Craster, alongside the sea and past Dunstanburgh Castle - the largest ruined castle in Northumberland. Embleton itself has four village pubs, two of which serve food, and there is an excellent range of amenities in nearby Alnwick. The gardens at nearby Howick Hall are open during the summer and are noted for their beauty, whilst Alnwick Castle and Garden are a 'must-see' when visiting the area. For the keen golfer, Dunstanburgh Links Course is about 1 mile away - just one of several excellent courses in the vicinity.
Rock 1 mile, Embleton 3 miles. A charming early 18th Century Northumbrian rural retreat, which adjoins the owners’ tranquil farmhouse and garden in the scattered rural hamlet of Rock.

Surrounded by spectacular wide open countryside, the location is idyllic - perfect for a relaxing break.

Previous visitors' comments about Rock Mill Cottage:
Excellent location with easy access to A1 and surrounding area. Very pretty countryside all around the cottage and the cottage itself was charming. Really loved the log burner. Going to have to get one at home. Very smart kitchen with everything we needed and more. The owners were very friendly and delivered excellent service. We never had to make any requests because they had catered for all our needs perfectly. Would be our first call if we were to return to the area.

A lovely cottage, beautifully furnished and in a quiet peaceful location. The owners were very friendly and helpful, we would love to visit again!
Mrs Gillam, Chesterfield, December 2011
We booked the cottage for a special occasion and were made to feel very welcome by the owners. The cottage was cosy with
a woodburner in the living room, comfortable bedrooms, modern downstairs bathroom and a small kitchen with plenty crockery for our family who visited us and we felt very at home there. The setting, in the heart of the lovely Northumbrian countryside, close to beautiful unspoilt beaches, is very peaceful and we had a very enjoyable, restful holiday with pleasant walks in the autumn sunshine and visits to interesting local villages and castles, including the nearby historic town of Alnwick. Although the road to Rock Mill has an uneven surface it was well worth the drive to such a haven of tranquility in such lovely rural surroundings.
Mrs Dixon, Morpeth, October 2011
Owners were very welcoming. Booked at short notice but property was well prepared on arrival and nothing seemed too much trouble. Extremely peaceful position. We have 2 boys and they really enjoyed the stay with a safe field to play in and feeding the chickens and geese each day.
