Our house has recently been renovated internally. It is close to the dunes of Druridge Bay which is a 4 mile stretch of beach . The property is in a rural location on the outskirts of the village & close to a farm which currently does not have a tenant. We have a couple of neighbours who are very friendly & helpful & one of them has chickens which roam freely. Adjacent to the property is the Northumberland wildlife reserve & a variety of birdlife is regularly spotted including Barn Owls, Herons. Lapwings, Avocets.
