3-Bedroom House in Christon Bank

Sleeps up to 6
Pets 1
Bedrooms: 3

This 3-bedroom house is a handsome stone-built former railway station in Christon Bank, Northumberland. Built during the East Coast Main Line's heyday in the mid-1800s, this three-bedroom property sleeps six and retains striking railway heritage features. The station platform has been converted into a long conservatory, which makes it a genuinely one-of-a-kind stay.

The Northumberland coast is a short drive away. Embleton is 1. 5 miles away and Embleton Bay's golden sands are just beyond that. Walk the coast path past Newton Point to Football Hole Beach where seals, seabirds and dolphins are regularly spotted.
