The Area

School House is an attractive stone built property which has been in the same family for many years and sits in the hamlet of Dunstan just a short drive from the popular seaside location of Craster ? half a mile away. Craster enjoys a range of local facilities including a gastro pub - renowned for its fine dining, art gallery, cafe and visitor centre. The area is well known for its stunning beaches and coastline, in particular the walks to Dunstanburgh Castle and beyond. The next village to the North is Embleton which has a pub, garage and village shop/post office.
Wider amenities can be found in the historic market town of Alnwick with specialist shops, restaurants, pubs and hotels. The Alnwick District is famous for its unspoilt beauty with long sandy beaches, quiet friendly villages, the Simonside and Cheviot hills, well preserved medieval Castles, and gardens. There are numerous Stately Homes in the area including the fantastic Alnwick Castle, home to the Duke of Northumberland and often referred to as ?The Windsor of the North".
A mainline railway station is available at Alnmouth with inter-city trains to most major cities including London and Edinburgh.
