  • "We had a lovely week staying at Driftwood Sands."

    The property is furnished and maintained to a high standard, which makes for a really comfortable stay. We have stayed in many holiday rentals over the years and this is definitely one of the best. Jo, the owner, was in touch and available to answer any queries throughout the week (although everything is very self explanatory). The location is a perfect base to explore Northumberland, especially the coastal towns and area.

    Thanks so much for your lovely feedback. Really glad you had a great time and enjoyed the house too. Please come back again soon Jo x Property Owner

  • "Thanks for a great week."

    We found your house comfortable and perfect for our group. We made good use of the well equipped kitchen- thank you. The location is wonderful and we enjoyed exploring the coast in both directions. There are so many lovely places within walking distance, we could leave the car behind on several days.

    Thanks for your fantastic feedback and so glad you had a great time. Hope you come back again soon. Best, jo Property Owner

  • "Fabulous property in a great location!"

    we have stayed in many properties in Beadnell over the years and this was by far the highest standard. Lovely furnishings and really nicely decorated, lots of great bathrooms and bedrooms, we were not short of anything during our stay. Well equipped kitchen too, and we loved having breakfast in the open plan setting. Log fire was great to to keep us cosy at night. The house is in a great location only 2 minutes walk to the beach at Beadnell. We could have moved in!! Thank you as well for the welcome items and the milk in the fridge, a really nice touch after a long drive !! well be back!

    Hi james, fantastic to hear that you had such a great stay and you enjoyed the house. Please come back soon. Best, jo Property Owner

  • "We’ve had a wonderful holiday staying at Driftwood Sands."

    Beadnell is blessed with beautiful beaches and spectacular scenery and is close to lots of places to eat. The house is gorgeous. Spotlessly clean. Tasteful and comfortable and equipped to the highest standard that I’ve ever experienced in a self catering holiday home. It really did feel like home from home. The welcome package was a lovely surprise on arrival. Thank you so much to the owners. We will definitely be returning!

    Thrilled to hear you had such a great stay and you loved the house. We hope you will come back again soon. Thank you, Jo Property Owner

  • "We had a wonderful week in Driftwood Sands, I didn’t want to leave."

    We arrived in the dark to be greeted by a lovely warm house that was lit gently by a cosy inviting light, thankyou for thinking of that little welcoming touch. Perfect location to the beach ( 5 mins) and on a nice quiet residential street. We had some great walks to low newton by the sea and Seahouses along the beaches- We do love staying in Beadnell. We fully appreciated the welcome pack of essential foods and goodies, thank you, it was very thoughtful and a lovely surprise. The kitchen was fully equipped for our needs and the space was very suitable for being sociable for a larger group/ family ( only two of us on this visit). All kitchen equipment and appliances appeared brand new and plentiful. I did note when cooking that the extractor fan didn’t vent externally, but only vented/ exausts into the little cupboard housing the fan- it caused the cupboard door to blow open when the fan was on- it didn’t bother me, just felt the landlord may wish to know

    Hi Georgina, so pleased you had a great visit and you found it cosy and warm. I will check out the extractor fan feedback too. Thanks do come and stay again! Thank you, Jo Property Owner

About the location

BEADNELL

Seahouses 1.5 miles; Bamburgh 5 miles.

This attractive and peaceful harbour village is situated beside one of the most beautiful stretches of Northumberland’s Heritage Coastline - Beadnell Bay. Established in Saxon times, Beadnell was once an important fishing village and a smuggler's haven. Nowadays, it is still a fishing village, but is equally popular with holidaymakers who come to enjoy its pretty harbour and, of course, the nearby sandy beaches. The village has a shop, two pubs and a café serving food. Popular Seahouses is just over a mile away and has shops, a supermarket and restaurants, and it also offers boat trips from the harbour to the magnificent Farne Islands - a haven for bird watchers. Bamburgh is close by, whilst the market town of Alnwick with its Castle and Gardens, shops, pubs and restaurants is a short drive away.
