    “Stones Throw was a very nice cottage just off the main street very handy for all amenities.”

    We had lovely sunny days and enjoyed the coastal walks a unexpected bonus was the lights switch on. There was a Steel band just at the end of our street and the parade past by only 20 metres from our cottage. A wonderful weekend which we have many happy memories to cherish

Resting centrally in Amble, a bustling harbour town in Northumberland is Stone's Throw, a well-positioned, two-bedroom holiday home.

Just paces away from a hub of shops, eateries, pubs, the marina and shoreline, Stone's Throw makes the ideal base for exploring the delights of the county, well-equipped for a self-catered stay; four guests are invited, ideal for couples sharing or friends.

Park up on the roadside in the centre of the town, before travelling by foot to Stone's Throw and its stone-fronted exterior.

Enter the homely living/dining room, complete with plush seating, a TV, and dining for four guests, before locating the contemporary kitchen, well-equipped with all expected appliances.

When sleep calls, head upstairs to select between the double and queen bedrooms, both well-presented and serviced by a sleek shower room.

Come morning, explore the marina and the wealth of amenities on your doorstep, including several convenience stores, and popular eateries, including The Fish Shack, The Old Boathouse, and Lily's Landing.

For countryside views, head to the Hauxley Nature Reserve, perfect for bird watching and wildlife spotting, or if you favour the coastal landscape, stop off at Warkworth Castle whilst travelling towards Warkworth's golden beach.

Travel further towards Alnmouth, also home to a popular shoreline, Alnmouth Golf Club, and The Old School Gallery, showcasing a variety of local artwork, or discover the Northumberland shoreline some more at Druridge Bay Country Park, or East Chevington Bay Beach; both Northumberland Zoo and the Northumberland National Park are also within reach, popular attractions to add to your itinerary.

Experience all of this, and more, at Stone's Throw.

About the location

AMBLE

Warkworth 1 mile; Alnmouth 4 miles.

The bustling little seaport of Amble is situated at the mouth of the River Coquet and is an ideal place for exploring Northumberland. Historically a centre for boatbuilding, Amble offers a marina, a harbour, sandy beaches and coastal walks to the bird sanctuary at Hauxley and country park at Druridge Bay. Large fishing boats moor along the harbour wall and land a variety of fish, prawns, crabs and lobsters. There is a fish centre on the side of the harbour that is now primarily a shell fish hatchery to re-stock levels of lobster and other shell fish, this sells local fish and is open to the public. A mile south of Amble is Coquet Island, an RSPB reserve with a large population of terns, puffins and eider ducks and boat trips around the island can be arranged. The pretty coastal villages of Alnmouth and Craster and numerous superb beaches are only a short drive away, whilst picturesque Warkworth with its castle, charming Alnwick with its castle and award-winning gardens, and the National Trust’s Wallington Hall and Cragside are all within easy reach.
