world-renowned L. Robson & Sons to pick up the legendary
'Craster Kippers'. Imagine the culinary delights that you

Places to Visit near Craster
For a memorable day out, be sure to walk the coastal path which
will take you past the striking ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle,
perched on a windswept headland and battered by gunfire in the War
of the Roses. With waves crashing against the rocks, the
scene's a theatrical one not-to-be-missed. Continue on to the
sugary sands of Embleton
Bay, keeping your eyes peeled for the 'vanishing rock',
and further still to Beadnell
and the bustling town of Seahouses
- a ten-mile stretch in total. Other places to visit from our
Craster holiday cottages include Alnmouth,
Alnwick
and Bamburgh.
