Photo gallery for A romantic retreat with spectacular sea views, right by the beach

Anchor Cottage is a stone-built fisherman's cottage, overlooking the sea
The cottage has its own bench at the rear on the 'Bank Top' (water's edge)
The view from the Bank Top is a great stress-buster!
The stunning beach at Druridge Bay is a stone's throw from the cottage
Seven miles of sand and dunes, often with hardly a soul in sight!

Superb cottage with great views

Anchor cottage is without doubt one of the best properties we have ever stayed in. From our arrival we just fell in love with this property Anchor cottage is situated in the small village of Cresswell nd has superb views over the bay from the kitchen. The lounge window overlooks Peel tower and fields. Upon arrival we were greeted with a home made chocolate cake and flowers, which were a wonderful treat. Luckily the owners Nigel and Jane were staying next door and were very helpful in recommending walks in the area and also where to eat, which we took full advantage of. There is also very detailed information within the cottage along with maps, books and dvds. The cottage was spotlessly clean and very comfortable and is much bigger than it looks in the pictures. If you like peace and quiet, and walking this property is for you. Will be returning without a doubt.
