About Goosander

Goosander is a high-end stone cottage in Northumberland, just 2.2 miles from Bamburgh. Part of the contemporary Heather House development, this four-bedroom property offers stunning sea views and direct beach access - a five-minute walk with no roads to cross. Perfect for those who want to wake up to coastal panoramas without remortgaging their house.

The location is bloody brilliant. You're a short drive from Bamburgh with its impressive castle dominating the coastline. Seahouses is 3.5 miles away and Beadnell just 5.1 miles down the road. Dogs will think they've died and gone to heaven with fields to run in and a beach practically on the doorstep. The enclosed front area is perfect for letting your four-legged friend out without worrying they'll bugger off.

All four bedrooms come with their own en-suite bathrooms - no more queuing for the loo after someone's had a curry night. There's a king-size bedroom upstairs, two ground-floor king-size rooms and a twin room. The open-plan living area features a woodburning stove for those chilly evenings when you've had one too many at the nearby pub (just 0.1 miles away).

Fancy some local exploration? Bamburgh Castle is just minutes away, offering centuries of history and dramatic views. The Farne Islands are accessible from Seahouses for wildlife spotting. Alnwick Castle (16.9 miles) offers Harry Potter filming location bragging rights. And Holy Island's tidal causeway creates a proper adventure.

Goosander is ideal for multi-generational families or friend groups. The hot tub is perfect for stargazing with a glass of something strong. Just watch out for low-flying birds! This property ticks all the boxes for a proper Northumberland holiday.

Goosander Reviews

Beautiful cottage and spotlessly clean on arrival. We had a power cut during our stay but this was rectified quickly. The only negative comment would be the settee was very low and proved difficult for some members of our party.
Rebecca
We had an amazing time at Goosander. The photos dont quite do it justice as the interior was better than we expected and the view was amazing. The only thing missing was a table by the hot tub to put our drinks on. We had a question about the hot tub they change the water for every new guest which means it takes a while to warm up but a member of staff came straight out to check it and all was fine. Thank you so much for such a fantastic family holiday.
Location wonderful. Directions could be betterneed updating. One or two issues with maintenance, light bulbs need changing etcowners feedback form filled in to list and highlight these. Main complaint as with previous people is the seating in the living area which is low and gives no supportwe all have back ache now.
Victor
The nicest holiday cottage we've ever stayed in. Thank you so much.
Location is fantastic! A few maintenance issues including heating not working fully partly dealt with during stay Fridge freezer needs attention, shelves broken or missing in fridge. Should be noted that dishwasher is half sized. Equipment and seating a bit limited for full occupancy Mattresses all a bit tired so beds not comfortable Leaving grass cuttings on grass means lots walked into house as doormats tiny missing.
Alison
Fabulous location. Well equipped cottage. The directions indicated to go through the gate but you need to turn off before the gate, so this could be improved in the information provided. As per some other reviews, the drive up to the cottage is very rutted and potholed and some of these desperately need filling. Biggest issue for us was the sofas, they are so low, we all found them difficult to get out of and we were not an elderly group! Also, a couple of the double beds are getting a bit lumpy so could do with a refresh. However, we had a lovely stay and were very fortunate with the weather
We had a wonderful time in Goosander, and the hot tub was very relaxing it was lovely to lay back in the hot water, looking at the many stars in the night sky. The dog treats were really appreciated by Ruby! Really, the only problem was with the sofas. They were very low and difficult to get out of, especially for those of us who are no longer young. They weren't really big enough for eight adults, so it would have been really good to have a separate armchair as well. Also, it would be an idea to point out that the pub, less than a mile away, as seen on the website, is actually seasonal and not open in the winter. We were sad about that. However we all had a great time, celebrating my birthday, so thank you.
Denise
Very happy with this lovely cottage facilities are excellent beautiful views ... Very happy with this lovely cottage facilities are excellent beautiful views will definitely be booking in the future
A most enjoyable stay at Goosander. Friends had a guide dog puppy in training and the enclosed area at the front was a haven for her. One electrical problem we had during our stay was quickly sorted in a friendly and efficient way. Particularly bad weather on our arrival day at 4.00.p.m. 1st Dec in the dark. The paths and steps should have been heavily salted for our arrival as they were lethal and the same the following morning, which was when we became aware of a salt bin near the bin compound. The access road to the property extremely poor and full of large deep potholes, if nothing else please fill in the potholes. We were all delighted with the property and would hope to return in the future.
Lorraine
The property was clean but I felt a thorough deep clean was required. We had 3 elderly people with us and the sofas could use replacing. They were difficult to get out of, too low. Location fabulous and en suite rooms amazing. Lovely welcome basket which was much appreciated. Fantastic for the dog, she loved the fields and beach. Just a shame storm Babet wasted our fun.
Lovely place to spend a few days. Amazing views
Super location. Very well equipped.
Great area, great views, brilliant property, well equipped. we went as four couples which was great as the rooms were doubles with ensuites in each.
The property has a great location with sea view around a ten minute drive to Bamburgh and five minute walk to the beach. Great for families. The infrared sauna was easy to operate. I will definitely return to this property.
Good looking holiday cottage with good parking. Clean spacious and quiet accommodation, all bedrooms with own ensuites. All quality appliances in good working order. Log burner with some logs provided. Excellent for dog owners, walking from door to beach no roads, safe compound for pets.
Lovely holiday cottage in fantastic location great walks from the door. Property well equipped, great for families and dogs, will definitely recommend and would love to return in the future.
