Living room: Smart TV, Electric Fire
Kitchen/dining room: Electric Cooker, Microwave, Fridge/Freezer, Washing Machine
Bathroom: Bath With Shower Over, Toilet
First Floor:
Bedroom 1: Queen Bed
Bedroom 2: Zip And Link 2 x Single (3ft) Beds. Gas central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Travel cot, highchair and stairgate. Doggy extras.. Enclosed back garden with sitting out area and garden furniture. No smoking.. Within walking distance of lovely pubs and restaurants and only a short drive to a beautiful beach, Saddlers Cottage is oozing character and charm throughout. With some vintage design elements some of the rooms are quirky and full warmth and original features. Featuring a wonderful enclosed private courtyard to the side where you can relax and unwind in the sunny undisturbed spot. Located on the Front street in the friendly upmarket small village of East Boldon, an ideal base for couples or a small family to explore the surrounding area and beyond.
The village itself has a strong community vibe with an award winning butcher shop and post office and ample good bars and places to eat around. Nearby you have a local metro which takes you up and down the coast or into town. Discover the seaside resorts of South Shields, Whitley Bay and Tynemouth all with golden beaches and lovely places to stop off for ice creams and treats. Very close by you have the sandy beaches of Seaburn and Roker, a perfect place to spend a day unwinding and relaxing both of these beaches have been popular for years with the locals where you can meander along seafront and promenade for evening strolls. A traditional park in Roker has play areas, lake and miniature railway set in the floral displays.
Every year Sunderland illuminations brighten the seafront from September to November so staying at Saddlers Cottage is the perfect place if you choose to visit the area. Of course, you will want to spend a day travelling along the stunning Northumberland Heritage Coastal route too, this is easily reached and only an hour’s drive where you can explore more of Northumberland.
