The cottage is only a minute's walk up Haven Hill from Craster's harbourfront, so you're right in the heart of the village here, but the cottage is set back from the road, guaranteeing peace and quiet.
Driftwood is one of a cluster of similar cottages, most of which date from the late 1800s (in fact, it's right next door to one of our other Craster properties, Harbourway).
Like the other cottages in the terrace, it's pretty as a postcard. Step through the gate and walk up the garden path to the house, then enter the delightful open plan kitchen/dining/living room a beautifully designed space with deep sofas a window seat to view harbour life taking place, and a gorgeous stone fireplace, the hearth charred coal-black by a couple of centuries' worth of open fires (thankfully, for ease of use, there's a woodburner these days).
The room sets the decorative tone for the rest of the house: light walls, pine doors, wood effect porcelain floors and knick-knacks dotted around for character. The kitchen is compact but well equipped, with induction hob, electric oven, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, microwave and a washer dryer. At the rear of the property, there is a further small stone seating area with a barbecue, ideal for summertime suppers.
Both bedrooms are upstairs, and furnished in our "Catch the Breeze" signature style; one has an en-suite shower room and there is also a further bathroom in between them. If it gets really chilly there is air source central heating throughout keeping the cottage toasty, but once the woodburner's roaring away downstairs you more than likely won't need them.
Handily, there are two parking spaces – a rarity in Craster – and the cottage is in a super spot for exploring: Dunstanburgh Castle is just north along the coast, while southwards, the coast path leads to Cullernose Point. Don't miss picking up some smoked fish from the harbourside curing sheds: a fresh kipper makes the ultimate Craster breakfast.
A well-behaved dog is welcome: all we also ask that they're aged one or over.

Wonderful holiday cottage. So cosy, clean and tastefully decorated. We’ve had a brilliant week and the cottage was a fabulous last minute find. Good base to do plenty of dog walks and explore Northumberland. The Jolly Fisherman is a brilliant pub/restaurant which we have enjoyed several times and would highly recommend.

Very comfortable cottage in a great location. Lovely to be able to walk along the coast from the front door. Despite the best efforts of the weather, we had a very relaxing few days in this lovely home from home - the house always felt warm and cosy, helped by a very efficient log burner (with all the kit provided). Thank you.

We had a great break in Driftwood and were returning guest after a previous lovely holiday in this property. The cottage is beautifully decorated and equipped with high quality fixtures and fittings.
There are walks from the door, a lovely pub in the village. The history and heritage of the area are fascinating and Catch the Breeze staff are thoughtful and helpful.
