About The Croft

Resting in the perfect position close to the stunning Northumberland coast and enjoying partial sea views, The Croft in Longhoughton, is an impressive, single-storey holiday home that promises a relaxing and enjoyable stay and is ideal for families. Your holiday begins as soon as you park up on the convenient driveway which can easily accommodate two cars off-road.

Inside, the décor is bright, and welcoming, helping to create an inviting ambience for guests. Step into the spacious sitting room which has gorgeous French doors, which flood the room with light, and take a seat on one of the comfy sofas, kick back and relax.

When it’s time to eat, make your way to the expansive open-plan kitchen/diner which is fully equipped with everything needed to produce hearty meals for the group.

Pull up a stool at the breakfast bar, pour yourself a glass of your favourite tipple and keep the designated chef company. Serve up at the contemporary dining table which easily seats six and you can look forward to long, lazy meals together.

Should the weather allow then you can carry on the evening outside, where you will find an enclosed garden complete with decking and a fantastic hot tub where even on a chilly Northumbrian night, you can enjoy the great outdoors. Come bedtime and guests can choose from two super-king-sizes, with the master having its own TV and sumptuous en-suite double shower room, and a cool children’s bunk bedroom.

A family bathroom completes the accommodation. Wake up in the morning and after a quick shower or a relaxing soak in the bath, you’re ready to get out and about exploring the wonders of Northumberland.

The Croft Reviews

Patrick
Excellent, would rent again if we visit the area, The area was lovely and very quiet, but within easy driving distance to visit the attractions we wanted to visit. The beach was sandy and well worth a visit. Would definitely recommend
We had a lovely week staying at The Croft. The property was perfect and had everything we needed. Communication with the owner was brilliant before we arrived. Location is great, 20 minute walk to the beach, 10 minutes in the car to Alnwick and not far from other locations. The hot tub is an excellent addition, especially after long walks during the day. The sun room was beautiful to sit in and read. The area is quiet and is perfect for relaxing and having some time out. We would definitely book again at The Croft.
The property was lovely and was a great base for our family holiday. The location is perfect Longhoughton Beach is walkable, it's just a short drive to Alnwick, and also well placed for visits to all the other wonderful places along the Northumberland coast. The property itself was very comfortable plenty of space for the whole family, very comfortable beds, and a great hot tub to help you relax at the end of the day. Communication from the owner before arrival was great all info needed for the property and local area was provided. Overall, it was a great stay and we'd happily stay at The Croft again.
The accommodation was brilliant. Immaculately clean and all the comforts of home. The walk to the beach is great and not too far. We would love to return.
Judith
Lovely, comfortable, well kept and spacious bungalow in quiet position and within easy reach of Alnwick. Friendly communication with the owner and everything provided that we needed. Hot tub a bonus.
Lovely spacious bungalow in a quiet culdesac, close to the village amenities and the track to a lovely beach. Only a short drive to Alnwick and all it has to offer, and in easy range of Bamburgh and the beautiful Northumbrian coast and hills. A great base with lovely facilities to return to and relax at the end of the day.

Alnwick Castle and Gardens - NE66 1NQ
about 3 Miles
Alnwick Castle and Gardens today are perhaps best known for their roles as Hogwarts in Harry Potter movies but have for many years been a family favourite attraction in Northumberland. The beautiful medieval castle is open to the public and during school holidays and at Christmas and Halloween a range of activities can be enjoyed including Santa's Workshop, a Pumpkin Parade, Spell Making Lessons and Owl and Bird of Prey Flying.
Cragside House and Gardens - NE65 7PX
about 13 Miles
Cragside House and Gardens (National Trust) are a popular Northumberland attraction with a beautiful stately home and gorgeous grounds to explore. The rhododendron labyrinth is a unique and fun addition to the grounds and there is also an adventure playground where children can let of steam. It is the stunning scenery that attracts most of the visitors though with many bringing a picnic for a relaxing family day out. The house itself hosts exhibits which change regularly. World of the Water Wizard is currently on display.
