Calder Cottage

1 Bedrooms | Sleeps 2

Calder Cottage is Emble’s original cottage in the village of Embleton on the Northumberland coast.

Nestled at the top of gentle pasture rolling down to Embleton Bay, with huge open skies and panoramic sea views.

Our Emble original

This sweet and simple one bedroom cottage is our original cottage and as per Conde Nast Traveller, “perfectly complements the ascetic beauty of the Northumbrian coastal landscape it sits in”.

One bedroom sleeps two with king-size bed and ensuite bathroom

East-facing windows frame postcard-perfect vistas of Embleton Bay and Dunstanburgh Castle.

Half-panelled living room with TV, log burner and built-in dining nook upholstered in sumptuous wool.

Calder’s garden looks onto Emble pasture where our cattle graze. Take in the ever-changing landscape and unrivalled views from the cottage’s private glazed garden Reading Room, sit on the deck, or the love seat at the foot of the garden.

THE HOUSE

  • One bedroom sleeps two with king-size bed and ensuite bathroom with shower over bath

  • Cosy living room with sea views, log burner and built-in dining nook

  • Large living room and kitchen windows framing a fantastic view of the sea and ever-changing landscape

  • Modern and fully equipped kitchen with induction hob, electric oven, kettle, toaster, coffee machine, fridge, freezer and washing machine

  • Converted glazed outhouse (the ‘Reading Room’ or ‘Huff House’) - a tiny little place that is all your own, with a private view of the bay

Embleton is a perfectly situated base for exploring north Northumberland, with all of the coastal route easily accessed and, inland, hills and countryside seeped in history and tradition.

Step out of the door from Calder Cottage and walk down to Embleton Bay in less than 15 minutes - a beautiful stretch of sand with the iconic ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle and Craster to the right, and the tiny village of Low Newton to the left.

Craster is famed for its kippers and picturesque harbour. At Low Newton you’ll find The Ship in the square. You can walk to The Ship from the cottage, over the dunes and along the beach.
