It's the end house of a pair, and faces south, with the charming front garden offering panoramic views down to the harbour and the North Sea. It also ensures you're a little removed from the village hustle and bustle. Inside, Harbourway has everything you'd expect of a traditional seaside cottage. Beams and wooden effect porcelain floors run throughout, and decorative touches hint at the house's maritime heritage – a pair of oars placed over a hearth, a wicker crab pot, a porthole window peeping out onto blue northern skies. Unusually for Craster, Harbourway offers plenty of parking – there's space for upto four cars. On one side of the house is the spacious living room, a cosy space for relaxing, with deep sofas to sink into, and a wood burner recessed into the handsome inglenook fireplace. On the other side is the dining room, with another impressive granite fireplace with electric wood burning stove providing the focal point. Both have big bay windows with window seats to make the most of the views. From here, arched French doors open out onto the sun-room, a light-filled space filled with additional seating, and warmed by underfloor heating. Another set of sliding doors leads out onto the front patio - perfect for sunny summer breakfasts. The kitchen is at the back of the house, open-plan in design and cottagey in feel. It's fully equipped with an integrated dishwasher, electric range cooker, american fridge freezer, washer/dryer and a wine fridge. A small passageway leads past the stairs to a cosy bedroom with en-suite shower room, the first of four, tucked away into the northeast corner of the cottage and very private. The bed in this room can be made up as either a super-king or twin beds. There are three more bedrooms upstairs: two further en-suite shower rooms, with another smaller twin bedded room ideal for children sandwiched between, and a modern family bathroom at the top of the stairs. The cottagey feel continues up here: pine doors, solid wooden beams and the super comfy beds are dressed with Melin Tregwynt woollen blankets. Harbourway is also dog-friendly - you're welcome to bring along a well-behaved canine companion, as long as it's at least a year old. If you fancy exploring Craster, just downhill from the cottage you'll find the legendary local fishmonger L. Robson and Sons, famous for their smoked kippers, and the Jolly Fisherman Inn, a friendly local hangout and a fine spot for an evening pint. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: WiFi ### Kitchen - Dishwasher - Refrigerator ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms ### Bathroom - 3 bathrooms ### Living spaces - Fireplace ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Location highlights - Near the ocean ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden - Unit size: 1,787 square feet ## Similar properties ![3 bedrooms, iron/ironing board, WiFi, bed sheets](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/96000000/95510000/95504400/95504341/470b68f0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Spacious, Welcoming 3 Bedroom Coastal Retreat Cullercoats - Kitchen - Washing machine - Pet-friendly - Parking available 7.0 Good 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-27&endDate=2026-01-28&selected=95504341&PinnedHotelID=95504341&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 4:00 PM Minimum check-in age - 18 ### Check-out Check-out before 10:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions Information provided by the property may be translated using automated translation tools ### Pets Pets are allowed Service animals are welcome, and are exempt from fees ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know This property is managed by a professional host.

Comfort, situation and facilities all wonderful. Will definitely be back. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent 5 Aug 2025 #### Beautiful cottage Harbourway is a beautiful cottage. My family and I really enjoyed our stay there. An advantage for us was the amount of space for our family of 3 households. Of a person of almost 70, I found having a downstairs bedroom a real asset, as was the number of bathrooms for us all. The only real downside for me and anyone with mobility issues, was the slope between the gate and front door, plus the slope and steps towards my car. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good 23 Aug 2025 #### A lovely stay We had an excellent time at Harbour way, but we're surprised to find it wasn't as clean as we'd expect (last year at Driftwood was exceptional). Some cups still had coffee marks on them and hairs and dust were under beds (noticed when popping out bags underneath after unpacking) and in the main (bath only) bathroom. The shower seals could have been cleaner too. That aside, the house if excellently provisioned and the customer service it second to none. We'd certainly recommend and return.

A really well equipped and comfortable cottage; will definitely return for another stay.

On both occasions Catch the Breeze were excellent in communicating our choices. As Harbourway wasn’t our first choice - it exceeded our expectations. We loved the view of the harbour and spent time each day sitting outside at the comfortable garden furniture. The cottage had everything we wanted, was thoughtfully decorated, extremely comfortable and spotless. Such a great dog friendly property. This was our third holiday in Northumberland and we were so pleased that we continued to find new little gems. A perfect stay. ##### Mary-anne J.

Very well equipped, super comfy, sunroom a lovely place to sit and relax. Patio overlooking the harbour and sea beyond a great place for breakfast and coffee on a sunny morning. Will definitely look to book again with Catch the Breeze if/when we return to Craster ##### Stephen L.

Well equipped, comfortable, nice front garden, parking for two cars, what's not to like? We have stayed here three years running and have just booked again for next year. We were very sorry to have to leave for home yesterday!

Beautifully laid out and extremely well equipped cottage all to an exceptional standard. Great to sit out on the front just watching the view and the world go by. Been to Northumberland many times, this was by far the best!

The house was great in terms of comfort and facilities and only a very short walk to a great pub! Wills be great for a holiday too! Craster is a lovely little fishing village and home to the amazing Coaster smokehouse...the kippers and smoked salmon are a must buy! ##### Marie W. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Barbara A. 16 Sept 2023 #### A lovely property for an autumn break. A well appointed property in an excellent location, with coastal walks from the door and a very nice pub serving good food within a couple of hundred yards. A larger cafetiere or perhaps a second one would be useful but other than that we had all that we needed for a lovely autumn break. Apart from the coast, visits to Alnwick and Morpeth were much enjoyed. ##### Barbara A. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sandra C. 23 May 2025 #### Disappointed with the description of four double berooms Beautiful house, great location. However there were a few things we weren't happy with. The small bedroom is not suitable for two adults, there was barely room to move round the bed let alone to find room for luggage. It should be described has a single room and have a single bed in it. We also found the bathrooms needed shelving, there was no where to put incidents. I hope this feed back is helpful .
