Tucked away in the heart of the Northumbrian coast lies a charming fishing village with a dark history, seemingly frozen in time.
Located approximately six miles east of the lively market town of Alnwick, this historic fishing hamlet is a must-see for those looking to experience the UK's natural splendour away from the masses. As the next village up the coast from Alnmouth, it offers a stark contrast to Alnmouth's abundant facilities and leisure spots.
This captivating villageis famed for its picturesque chocolate-box cottages and iconic blue coble fishing boats, which have been a hallmark of the region for centuries and are still utilised by local fishermen today. Interestingly, this fishing village doesn't have a formal harbour, so boats are hauled ashore by tractors, making it an ideal location for rock pooling and coastal walks.
