Unbeatable location

100% of guests in the past year gave this location a 5-star rating.
Enjoy a stylish, comfortable and family friendly getaway in Northumberland. This neatly refurbished, centrally-located home for up to 5 is right in the heart of Amble. From the soft furnished lounge to the inviting hot tub in the secure back yard, guests are welcome to enjoy every part of this two bedroom, period town house. There is free street parking and pets are welcome too. This is a popular seaside town in an enviable location, where the sleepy river Coquet meets the beautiful North Sea.

The space
Ambler's Watch has been completely renovated for holidaymakers. Downstairs there is a generous central dining room with a fully equipped kitchen on one side, and a cosy lounge on the other. The lounge has books and games for guests, and a Smart TV too. WiFi is included. The ground floor has hard flooring throughout, making this ideal for cleaning up after young families and pets. In the secure back yard there is space for dogs to visit, a four seater hot tub and a great view of the Amble Clock Tower.

The stairway has been transformed into a gallery of local scenes, all the photos taken by my family. Upstairs there are two bedrooms and a shower room/toilet. The first bedroom you pass has a double bed, dressing table, plenty of hanging space for a holiday and the best view in the house: past the clock tower, over the town square, Amble Marina and across the River Coquet to Warkworth Castle.

The second and larger bedroom has wardrobe hanging and drawer space and a fixed single bed with a quality memory foam mattress. The other feature is a high quality zip-and-link bed. This can be optioned as a king size or as two single beds (meaning a room combination of King & Single, or three Single beds).

The house is on a quiet terrace with free parking out front and the garden/park next to the town square at the back. Although the nearest pub and restaurants are just moments away, we are tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the main roads. Very light sleepers please be aware the friendly neighbouring clock tower does chime at night.

The nearest grassy area for dog walking is less than 1 minute away at the end of our street, on the way to the harbour or promenade.

Guest access
Driving into and parking in Amble is easy and free. Ambler's Watch is right between the high street and the marina, with the well loved Quayside and market shops all within walking distance over flat paved ground. There are regular buses into Amble too. These can take you to Newcastle, Morpeth and Alnwick or the nearest train station at Alnmouth.

Other things to note
Pets are very welcome- I have known dogs and cats visit holiday homes and leave far less evidence than many humans! I just remind all guests of Airbnb's policy to let us know who and what is coming so we can have everything ready for your arrival.

Pets should not be upstairs or on the sofas. if your pets are used to sitting on the furniture, please just bring throws to protect from damage and excessive hair. We do provide white bedding and towels which may be damaged if pets are allowed on them.

Pets should ideally not be left unattended at the property and when they are they should be caged- please be aware we do have neighbours to consider and damages must be paid for.

Neighborhood highlights

Amble has been increasingly popular over the last few years, with visitor numbers growing by the day. This has been brilliant news for the town, as new cafes, pubs, microbreweries, restaurants and even a cocktail bar have been popular, while still keeping to our roots of affordability in the North East. The town is big enough to provide a range of options while small enough to enjoy the highlights on foot. The quayside for Harbour Pods (craft shops), boat trips and market are 2 minutes walk away. The nearest beach, marina and promenade are perhaps two minutes further. Walk past the marina and follow the coquet for a mile inland and you reach Warkworth- with the mighty castle visible almost all the way.

Lives in Alnwick, United Kingdom
Northumberland born and bred, I currently live in Alnwick a stones throw from the castle. I work with property so drive up and down Northumberland all week every week. I own a selection of smaller pets, I would love a dog but worry I wouldn't be able to give one the time they deserve. I love to travel and enjoy exploring other countries, as well as finding new and interesting places in the local area. There is always somewhere I haven't seen yet!
