Travelling north on the A1, passing the towns of Morpeth and Alnwick, take the next right turn AFTER the B6347 signposted to Christon Bank, Seahouses and Doxford Country Store. It is signposted to Preston Tower, Chathill, Ellingham and Doxford Hall. Continue along this country road until a T-junction is reached. Turn left here, it is signposted to Seahouses and Beadnell.



Continue through Chathill, over the railway crossing and into the hamlet of Swinhoe. Pass by our other cottages, Nook End and Driftwood that are on the left hand side of the road opposite the post box, and continue along this road towards the sea. Pass over the crossroads as you come out of Swinhoe.


About 200m along this road you’ll see a right hand turn signposted to Beadnell. This is called The Wynding and takes you into the village. Follow the road around with the Craster Arms on your left side and the Beadnell Towers Hotel on your right. Immediately, past the Craster Arms beer garden and opposite the village store is an entrance on the left hand side of the road which takes you into the grounds of the Beadnell House Hotel. This is where our Mariner's cottage is located. Ignore this turning and the next little left turning, but immediately take the next left turning into the Smuggler's Cove development and in the direction of a small private caravan park. There are two rows of newly built terraced cottages on either side of a drive way with parking bays. Sailors' Snug is on the right hand side with a parking bay directly in front of the house

Travelling south on the A1, passing Berwick and Bamburgh, take the turning left signposted to Preston Tower, Chathill, Ellingham and Doxford Hall. Continue as above.
