Moo House
Livestock once stayed in Moo House – hence the name – but these days you’ll find much more luxurious accommodation, with subtle nods to its previous occupants throughout.
Inside and out, this roomy conversion now bursts with entertainment spaces. That begins with its open-plan living room, which sprawls to combine a hand-painted kitchen – where granite worktops flank the electric range cooker – a large dining table and a sitting area whose armchairs, sofas, side tables, soft lighting and Smart TV all conspire to create a slumberous atmosphere.
Open the curtains, however, and a wall of large windows admits floods of natural light. Outside, on the terrace, are a barbecue and al-fresco dining table, prettily illuminated by festoon lights, plus a picnic table at the front so that guests can follow the sun – coffee in the morning here, wine in the evening there.
Then, to one side, is the Cow Shed – a stand-alone games room that’s equally perfect for parties, noisy kids’ sessions or quiet escapism. That’s because it comes fitted with pool and football tables, a keyboard, a dressing-up box, a rocking horse and a 42-inch flatscreen TV and DVD player (feel free to bring your own games consoles too) opposite the large corner sofa.
Back in the main building, cow-themed slogans and colourful feature walls help all five bedrooms maintain the quirky, cheerful style that characterises Moo House.
Two of those are en-suite affairs on the ground floor, handy for anyone of limited mobility. Upstairs, a master bedroom seduces with gorgeous views over fields and the freestanding soaking tub in its own ensuite. The last two sleeping quarters – a super-king or twin depending on your preference has its own en-suite shower room, whilst the bunked den has use of the family bathroom.
The additional grassy area is also yours to use for morning strolls or ball games, and there’s a shed with bikes if you fancy cycling through some quiet countryside. Moo House is only a short drive from the long, golden-sand beaches of Beadnell and Embleton Bays, between which sit the villages of Low and High Newton-by-the-Sea – the former mostly National Trust-owned.
It’s equally easy to visit Dunstanburgh (15 minutes’ drive) or Alnwick (20 minutes) Castles and the Holy Island of Lindisfarne (35 minutes), as well as a host of country pubs or acclaimed restaurants.

Location
Set at the end of the sweeping crescent-shaped beach of Beadnell Bay, Beadnell is a quaint, picturesque village nestled in a scenic spot on the Northumberland Coast – an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
With miles of unspoiled golden sands stretching as far as the eye can see, Beadnell is popular with holidaymakers and locals alike and is the ideal spot for scenic dog walks, adventurous days spent surfing, and leisurely beach picnics. Sheltered by the curve of its horseshoe shaped bay, it’s joined by the only west-facing harbour on Northumberland’s coast, making it ideally placed for spectacular sunsets.
The village itself is home to several welcoming pubs and restaurants serving local fare, while the sights and eateries at Low-Newton-by-the-Sea, Seahouses, Bamburgh, Craster, and Alnwick all lie within easy reach. Whether in search of fresh air or delicious seafood, the Northumberland Coastal Path and National Cycle Route 1 also run right through this area, with never-ending beaches to be discovered all the way along the route.
