Description
Bamburgh 3.7 miles.
Settled into the beautiful hamlet of Lucker, near Bamburgh, this stunning stone-built cottage offers wonderful accommodation for a family or group of adults looking to visit the coast of Northumberland.
Park off-road and unpack with ease into this pretty property, where two large arched windows allow in seas of light into a tasteful and airy sitting room.
Traditional roof beams rest above a stone fireplace, a hint of history now housing a woodburning stove which you can relax beside in the leather furniture and enjoy a good book.
Continuing the charm of the sitting room, the kitchen/diner is simply stunning, with black tiled floors, roofbeams threaded throughout and a contemporary kitchen housing all of the amenities you will need to cook up a storm.
Enjoy a relaxing soak amongst the bubbles before settling down for the night in one of the tree bedrooms, beginning with a fantastic king-size with storage, tasteful furniture, roof beams and a handy en-suite, and there is also a homely double and twin bedroom.
Outside, dine alfresco with the picturesque surrounding cottages at the table and chairs making the most of the sunshine.
Lucker is a lovely hamlet offering countryside walks and discounted meals at two local eateries, The Apple Inn and The Apple Core, so why not enjoy a meal out with a glass of your favourite beverage?
Bamburgh is the closest town, with its amazing castle and selection of eateries, and there is also a wonderful sandy beach.
Within easy reach from here is the historic island of Holy Island, where you will be able to explore Lindisfarne Castle, Castle Point Lime Kilns, Lindisfarne Priory and a selection of independant shops, eateries, walks and beaches.
Make a coastal holiday to remember with a stay at the beautiful Goldfinch.

What guests are saying
The locks on both doors could do with improving / replacing as the property didn’t feel very secure.
We do not think the French doors locked at all (except for the bottom pin) so that is worth looking at. We loved our stay. The only other things to note were that the high chair was very dirty when we arrived which was a shame as the standard of cleanliness otherwise was excellent. Also if you want to cater better to families with young children it could do with a guard for the wood burner, a stair gate (good for dogs too) and perhaps a step for the bathrooms.
Lovely property, warm and cosy in an excellent location for a base to explore Northumberland.
Very handy for the many beautiful beaches in the area but also get-away-from-it-all rural areas such as Rothbury and the Cheviots. Goldfinch had a lovely aspect overlooking the church, plenty of parking with the very welcoming Apple Inn literally on our doorstep.
