The area is a popular tourist destination, offering a variety of attractions such as boat trips to the nearby Farne Islands and Coquet Island, as well as scenic coastal walks and a selection of local dining options. Northumberland itself boasts the International Dark Sky Park, the largest of its kind in Europe, allowing visitors to experience breathtaking stargazing opportunities, particularly during the autumn and winter months when astronomical events are at their peak.
Within close proximity to the cottage, guests can explore the historical Bamburgh Castle, which showcases its intriguing history as an Anglo-Saxon palace and a Victorian inventor's residence.
