Primrose Lodge 5 is a New England style lodge sitting on a working farm right behind the sand dunes at Newton-by-the-Sea, Northumberland. The beach is within easy reach and the lodge backs directly onto the dunes near Beadnell Bay. It's part of an exclusive development of holiday properties on this working farm by the sea. Views from the living room stretch across open fields where horses, sheep, hens and rabbits roam freely.

Newton-by-the-Sea is a village of whitewashed cottages. Neighbouring Low Newton has a long stretch of quiet beach with wildfowl along the shoreline. Two historic pubs are walking distance away, one with its own microbrewery. Beadnell Bay offers bodyboarding and scuba-diving. Boat trips run to the Farne Islands.

The lodge sleeps four across two bedrooms. The master bedroom is a spacious double with countryside views. The second bedroom has twin beds. There's one contemporary shower room plus a separate ground-floor WC. The open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner has leather sofas, Smart TV and large patio doors with uninterrupted countryside views.

Alnwick Castle is 12 miles away. Beadnell Beach water sports are minutes from the door. Farne Islands boat trips depart nearby. The private decked area is perfect for dark-sky gazing at night.
