2 Bedroom Cottage in Craster, Alnwick

The cottage is only a minute's walk up Haven Hill from Craster's harbourfront, so you're right in the heart of the village here, but the cottage is set back from the road, guaranteeing peace and quiet.
Driftwood is one of a cluster of similar cottages, most of which date from the late 1800s (in fact, it's right next door to one of our other Craster properties, Harbourway).
Like the other cottages in the terrace, it's pretty as a postcard. Step through the gate and walk up the garden path to the house, then enter the delightful open plan kitchen/dining/living room a beautifully designed space with deep sofas a window seat to view harbour life taking place, and a gorgeous stone fireplace, the hearth charred coal-black by a couple of centuries' worth of open fires (thankfully, for ease of use, there's a woodburner these days).
The room sets the decorative tone for the rest of the house: light walls, pine doors, wood effect porcelain floors and knick-knacks dotted around for character. The kitchen is compact but well equipped, with induction hob, electric oven, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, microwave and a washer dryer. At the rear of the property, there is a further small stone seating area with a barbecue, ideal for summertime suppers.
Both bedrooms are upstairs, and furnished in our "Catch the Breeze" signature style; one has an en-suite shower room and there is also a further bathroom in between them. If it gets really chilly there is air source central heating throughout keeping the cottage toasty, but once the woodburner's roaring away downstairs you more than likely won't need them.
Handily, there are two parking spaces – a rarity in Craster – and the cottage is in a super spot for exploring: Dunstanburgh Castle is just north along the coast, while southwards, the coast path leads to Cullernose Point. Don't miss picking up some smoked fish from the harbourside curing sheds: a fresh kipper makes the ultimate Craster breakfast.
A well-behaved dog is welcome: all we also ask that they're aged one or over.

Summary: Driftwood does not feel like a holiday cottage. It’s more like a home away from home and has everything you could possibly need for your stay. It’s always welcoming on arrival and hard to leave. Everyone at catch the breeze is warm and professional and easy to deal with. The housekeeping and cleanliness is the best I’ve come across. Catch the breeze is now my default choice when I want a break.
Keith K. May 12, 2025 07:33:49 PM
Summary: An excellent property with all the things you want/need in a holiday let. Nothing overlooked and a very good location for walkers, without getting in the car.

Summary: Lovely return to Driftwood. So very comfortable and clean with everything we needed for in-house catering and a generous welcome pack, thank you. Can recommend excellent meals at the Jolly Fisherman and outstanding wood fired pizza from Embers at Eleanor’s Byre. We’ll be back!
Michael M. Apr 1, 2025 01:58:17 AM
Summary: Another lovely stay in a perfect cosy cottage. Ideal for exploring the Northumberland coast path or visiting all the other local attractions, followed by a stroll to the pub in the evening.
Terry B. Jan 20, 2025 05:24:50 PM

Caroline Hoyles H. Jan 9, 2025 12:38:18 AM
Summary: We were over the moon with this cottage. Great location in Craster with sea views. Cottage is fitted to a high standard, everything you need for your stay and more. It was so cosy we didn’t even need to light the log burner in the sub zero temperatures! We’ll definitely stay here again.

Nicola G. Dec 17, 2024 01:39:16 AM
Summary: Driftwood is a beautiful cottage and a real home from home. Very tastefully decorated and is such an idyllic location. We will be back.

Summary: As we walked into the cottage on a cold November day we were greeted with a warm, cosy and tastefully decorated living area. Because there were only two of us, we had a sofa each on which to lounge and watch the TV although we struggled with the technology as neither of us own TVs. We loved watching the sky and the sea from the bay window with its comfortable window seat. Upstairs was even warmer so we turned down all the radiators after the first night. High quality welcome pack with lovely bread, butter, jam, all local produce. We loved it.
John T. Nov 16, 2024 11:12:30 PM
Summary: Lovely cottage in a lovely part of the country. Northumberland has stunning coastline with amazing beaches great for dog owners.
