'I don't think I have come across another website that has made me hyperventilate with excitement as much as Coastal Retreats has........Why is a site such as this still the exception, not the rule?'

The Guardian Travel

'Swathes of golden sand, pretty fishing villages, ancient castles and bijou hideaways. No this isn’t the Med, it’s Northumberland, the UK’s most under-rated coast. Coastal Retreats has long recognised its potential and offers top-notch self-catering gems like Coral Cottage and The Studio. Magical' 101 Honeymoons

Summer Holiday availability

Coastal Retreats offers guests a personally managed collection of carefully and individually styled self-catering holiday accommodation in some stunning settings along the coastal areas of Northumberland.

'Smoke free, pet free and chintz free' (although we now have three dog friendly cottages too)

Featuring 5 star graded, some GOLD awarded, (VisitBritain/English Tourism Council 2010) luxury self catering cottages, our coastal holiday collection has everything a discerning holidaymaker looks for in their luxury holiday - professionally designed contemporary interiors to help you enjoy the coastal surroundings, luxury soft furnishings to make you relax, fully equipped kitchens for easy self catering, leisure club membership and a host of extra touches to make our guests feel special whilst they relax on their well earned coastal holiday!

All our accommodation has been awarded the English Tourism Council's 5 Stars Self Catering accreditation . Moreover, all 6 of our new boutique apartments, Moo House, The Granary, The Well House, The Hemmel, Mariner's, Beadnell Beach House and The Lodge@Shirewater, have achieved the annual Enjoy England Gold Award for self-catering accommodation (only given to those 5 Star cottages achieving over 91% in their annual grading).

Children are made welcome; after all they too can appreciate a little luxury (as well as the dressing up boxes, trampolines, wendy houses, games rooms..!) So much so, we even have our own starfish child-friendly rating system to allow you to choose with confidence your ideal coastal holiday.

With a range of select boutique styled properties in our luxury portfolio from contemporary apartments to farm steadings, cliff top houses to renovated holiday cottages, in some of the most enviable coastal locations, we think you'll find it hard not to be tempted into your very own luxury slice of Northumberland...
