Darling Cottage

David and Susan would like to give you a personal warm welcome to the delightful Darling Cottage Bed and Breakfast.

Set in the quaint north Northumberland town of Bamburgh, distinct for its majestic Norman castle, Heritage coastline and of course the legendary heroine Grace Darling (the cottages name sake), who famously rowed out in violent stormy seas to save 9 people from a wrecked ship in 1838.

Darling Cottage accommodates up to 7 people sharing. There is an easy accesible ground floor double bedroom (Sleeps 2 adults) with toilet and shower facilities, ideal for the elderly or people who may find stairs difficult.

To the first floor there is a family and friends quarter, consisting of two adjoining bedrooms (Sleeps a maximum of 5 people, 1 double and 3 singles), with toilet and bathroom facilities. Children are welcome and a baby-sitting service is available.

All bedrooms are furnished to a high standard with built in wardrobes and comfortable seating. Each with fresh linens and towels, Freeview TV's, DVD players, Radio alarms, hair dryer, coffee and tea making facilities plus a well stocked hospitality tray.

Full english breakfast is served every morning using local produce where ever possible. An alternative breakfast can be prepared on request. In addition packed lunch and evening meals can also be arranged.

Darling Cottage is perfectly located in a queit cul-de-sac with off street parking, backed by a south facing lawned garden with spectacular views of the cheviot hills, ideal for summer BBQ's on the patio. All within a short walk to Bamburghs main street or the heritage coast. We also have mountain bikes available. Locally there are many attractions and a choice of local resturants , bars and cafes.
