Great place to stay with amazing beach nearby

We loved the house and we found an amazing little bay which few visited so you had the beach to yourself!!Make sure you have a crab sandwich at The Ship Inn—scrumptious!

We really enjoyed our family stay in this property. It was spacious enough to have 6 and two dogs without feeling like we crammed in together. The courtyard area was a good secure space to allow the dogs to play outside whilst we were in the property. The location was great, being a 20 minute walk from the beach at Low Newton and we highly recommend booking in for a meal at the Joiners Arms which is just across the road.

We are just back from a lovely 2 night stay at Doray House. The house was beautifully decorated with loads of space. Beach was only a 10 minute walk away with the pub literally right across the road. There were a couple of things to mention - upon arrival we found a tooth flossing tool on the floor beside the bed in one of the bedrooms and the upstairs bathroom mirrors were really dirty (toothpaste marks on one of them), so I don’t know if these were missed by cleaners. Also, there was a few bits of litter outside at seating area (muffin wrappers and a few lens wipe packets). Secondly, a suggestion was maybe to include salt/pepper and oil in the kitchen? It says oil was included so we didn’t bring any and had to ask pub for some. Overall a lovely house and would definitely be back, just a shame re a couple of points above! Thanks.

The house was great & was exactly as we had hoped. Lots of air fresheners around which made it smell lovely. The location was also very good especially having a pub across the road!

Beautiful cottage and village, ten minutes easy walk to the beach. Great coastal walks, pub is a stone’s throw but drinks was very expensive so we only had one there! The cottage is very spacious and plenty of room for six people, the bedrooms was lovely and the photos are true to the house! Down falls was - we was only left one dish tablet for 3 days for 6 people!<br/>Only one tea town and one toilet roll on each toilet! No kitchen spray to clean Down.<br/>The bathroom downstairs wasn’t very clean and so wasn’t the utility room.<br/>There was no board games or playing cards etc which would have made a nice touch to say how much we paid! Even though I would stay again!

Had a wonderful time. Clean, well furnished, spacious, all mod cons. Surrounding area absolutely beautiful. We loved it.

Good place for our family reunion over Christmas. Found the oven on the small side and dirty but we managed with the use of our own slow cooker and the microwave. Also needed a larger frying pan or a wok and more than the one tea towel provided. The driveway had a fee loose paving slabs which posed a trip hazard. <br/>The pub just a few steps away is cosy and friendly with good food. Nice 15 minute walk down to the beach. Look into the tin church, St Marys, as you pass, so pretty. Plenty of local places to enjoy.

Ideal location

lovely place to stay. Lots of space and comfortable accommodation. beautiful area as well.

Warm and cosy, well equipped cottage in a lovely village, with a great pub opposite

Lovely clean cottage, plenty of room, fantastic location pub right across the road and the beach a few minutes drive away.

Host and stay were extremely communicative and made the stay very smooth indeed. House in great location. A tad expensive for two people. A very spacious home ideal for a part of of 6

Very spacious house with a downstairs bedroom and bathroom perfect for my parents with 2 large upstairs bedrooms and another bathroom, beds very comfy, TVs in every room which the kids loved, open plan kitchen living room and a huge conservatory at the back with utility room. The pub over the road serves really tasty food and is open all day every day but gets very busy so booking is recommended. 15min walk to low newton beach which is lovely and has many coastal paths to enjoy. Fab time had all round

Doray house is a lovely 3 bed place with easy access to the coast across the road from the Joiners Arms. Some of the amenities were disappointing including the pillows and mattresses, and we had some minor problems which were resolved with the help of the owner.

Great for our family and great space to be in with all weather

Lovely spacious accommodation. Well equipped kitchen and very comfortable beds. Great location for exploring the area and Low Newton beach 15 minute walk away.<br/>With the Joiners arms across the road and Ship inn at Low Newton both good for food or drinks. Would definitely stay again.

Very spacious and well laid out. sunroom and utility room were an added bonus and all bedrooms and bathrooms were good size. Excellent location, next to a lovely pub and in walking distance to the beach. We love Newton.<br/><br/>Outdoor space was quite limited and a little over-looked but it didn’t matter.

Great stay at Doray House. The house is well situated for the lovely Northumberland beaches, we had our 2 dogs and they were very happy. Plenty of space and outside area to sit, would definitely visit again.

Fab

Lovely modern house. Great location, not far from a wonderful beach and two good pub restaurants.<br/><br/>Very well-equipped, the only items needed are some long-handled bbq utensils.

A great location to explore the Northumberland coast. Very close to the local pub. Comfy beds with lovely bed linen and towels. A spacious property.

Amazing place in a beautiful location, wish we could've stayed longer.

Good location. . Spacious, and well presented

Beautiful house in a beautiful area. We were attending a family wedding in a nearby venue and we couldn’t have wished for a nicer place to get ready and then spend a couple of day afterwards. Really near the beach and great walks from the front door. Kippers at The Ship in Low Newton after a walk along the coast made for a perfect day. The house was very clean and spacious with really comfy beds and nice bedding. I would recommend.

Really loved place to stay. Comfortable, high quality furniture. Would definitely stay again

This was a great place to stay with our extended family (grandparents, children and a dog). The house is welcoming and comfortable with great places to relax and good facilities for everyone. Having the pub over the road was great for dinner (booking recommended it was busy!) The beach is walkable and is beautiful. Our queries pre arrival were responded to quickly and check in went without a hitch. Great place to stay for our trip to Northumberland and well placed for local attractions like Alnwick and Holy Island. Thank you!

Lovely accommodation, very spacious. Great location to explore the coast with a great pub just across the road.

Brilliant location close to great beaches, and a great Gastro Pub<br/><br/>We were a little let down by the cleanliness of the property on arrival. However, the house and facilities were fantastic. <br/>There was a yogurt lid still in the fridge, and the work-surfaces could have been cleaner.

Beautiful house on the gorgeous Northumberland coast. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Comfortable and spacious accommodation. All three bedrooms were beautifully decorated and beds were very comfy, with ample wardrobe space and hangers. <br/>Lounge and conservatory areas were cosy with plenty of space to grab some quiet time for reading etc. <br/>Outdoor space which could be utilised in warmer weather and a couple of pub/ restaurants within easy walking distance. <br/>We would definitely return.

Great stay at Doray House. The house is very modern, clean and very well presented. Great location to explore Northumberland and across the road from the Joiners Arms!

Beautiful, spacious home with everything you could need.

Lovely place, great location. Very well organised information pack - once we got round to reading it….. We had a great stay. Thank you!

Really beautiful property, clean, modern and had everything we needed for a peaceful weekend for 6 adults. Plenty of space to socialise in the living room and lovely conservatory and three large bedrooms all with TVs. Well equipped for cooking and handy for the pub and the beautiful local beaches!

Although the house has no view, it’s location in High Newton is excellent for exploring north or south. It’s also right on the excellent 418 bus route. Across the road The Joiners Arms serves fine food with a smile. And the property itself is warm, comfortable and extremely well-equipped.

Beautiful property in a lovely location.<br/><br/>More rubbish bags, dishwasher tablets and toilet rolls.

Really loved our stay at Doray House. Location was perfect for exploring Seahouses, Bamburgh and surrounding. A great pub with good food literally across the road which was a delight.<br/><br/>House was clean, tidy and as described. Comfortable beds, good sized bathrooms. Plenty of space for a party of 6 including two small dogs. Good communication leading up to and during our stay. Would highly recommend.

Amazing cottage, would stay again!

Spacious, stylish, a great location and very comfortable beds.

A great property in a perfect location. We had a great couple of nights. It’s a very easy walk down to Low-Newton and the stunning beach, with views of Dunstanburgh Castle. The Joiners Arms is just across the road and the renowned Ship Inn is 15 minutes walk. The house is really well equipped and Host&Stay were good with communications before and during our stay. We would definitely book again.

Lovely house in a great location

Lovely property, great location, beautiful beach a short walk away, cosy pub across the road. We even had a BBQ one day, good facilities in the house. We’ll definitely book again.<br/><br/>Lovely walks in the local area, we’ll places to visit Bamburgh and Dunstanburgh/Craster.<br/><br/>Bring your own oven gloves!

Doray House is an immaculately presented home away from home which couldn't have provided more. There were only four of us, but there is ample space for a larger group with two incredible spacious bedrooms and one smaller one downstairs (that still has a double bed) which we used for ourselves because our elderly dog couldn't manage the stairs (foregoing the much larger rooms with sofas upstairs for her comfort!) <br/> <br/>There is a good sized conservatory (which I don't think we even noticed when booking!) and a boot room where you'll also find a large BBQ that can be used on the stone patio outside - this too was clearly recently cleaned and all the required utensils were present. <br/> <br/>The bathrooms were all provided with toiletries including soaps, shower gel, shampoo etc so you literally don't need to bring anything (we didn't know this, so did bring stuff) there were even copious amount of coffee capsules and some bottles of various drinks (not sure if these were left by a previous guest or part of the offer, but it's a nice touch)<br/><br/>Very little to be honest! It would be nice to have some grass within the property's boundary, especially as a dog friendly property, in the extreme heat we've had this weekend (unusual for the UK I'll admit) the stone patio was uncomfortably hot for paws. But I appreciate this is difficult due to the footprint of the house and surrounding area. Also, a later checkout time than 10am on a Sunday morning would be good too!

Fantastic spot only 15 minutes stroll from the beach. <br/>Excellent property with all the home comforts you could hope for. <br/>All instructions easy to follow and friendly cleaning staff ready to take over bang on 10am. <br/>Doray is highly recommended for a family group outing g to the beautiful North East Coast.<br/><br/>As with all holiday rentals, they should really use commercial waste services, not burden already cash strapped councils whilst charging £230 a night despite their mortgage probably no more than £600 a month! The refuse bin was already full on arrival leaving us with some difficult choices not really knowing the area or what to do with overflowing bins. Thankfully the cleaning staff at departure were well humoured and didn’t mind wading through several bin bags. If anyone finds the Oven Gloves good luck to you, we had everything else but!
