About this property
The Nook - North East Escapes
Professionally managed by North East Escapes, The Nook is a charming rustic cottage tucked away in the peaceful village of Embleton, Northumberland. Perfect for couples or solo travellers seeking a tranquil retreat, the property sleeps two and features one cosy bedroom. With traditional character, complemented by modern comforts, The Nook is ideal for a peaceful coastal getaway. A short stroll leads to village amenities — and with the coast, countryside and historic sites just minutes away by car, it’s a great base for exploring the Northumberland coast and countryside.
THE PROPERTY BREAKDOWN
The property is arranged over two floors.
Ground Floor:
• Living Room – Sofa, coffee table, TV and fireplace.
• Kitchen – Well-equipped kitchen including an oven & hob, fridge-freezer, kettle, toaster, washing machine, and essential cookware & tableware.
First Floor:
• Bedroom 1 – Double bed, wardrobe, drawers, mirror, bedside table with lamp.
• Bathroom – Shower, washbasin, WC and heated towel rail.
Outside:

THE PROPERTY DETAILS
Step inside The Nook and you’ll find a cottage that blends rustic Northumbrian charm with thoughtful, modern touches. The living area is warm and inviting — ideal for relaxing evenings in. The kitchen, though compact, gives you everything you need to prepare home-cooked meals and enjoy leisurely breakfasts before a day of exploring. The bedroom offers a restful double bed and storage, and the bathroom is clean, contemporary and practical. Together, these spaces make The Nook a comfy, snug base for a couple looking to unwind — yet also a convenient starting point for coastal walks, countryside exploring or visits to local historic sites.
Outside, the parking and outdoor seating give flexibility: whether you’re arriving by car or simply want to enjoy fresh air with a drink or meal outdoors, The Nook caters for both.
