😍😍😍Absolutely Fantastic! I almost don't want to say how good this place is because I want to keep it to myself! The Sandpiper is a wonderful shepherd's cabin that sleeps 4 people. It far exceeded our expectations. The location was perfect, ample room at the site and very private, despite being on the 'main road' going into Beadnell - it really wasn't an issue. The wood fired hot tub was lush and we enjoyed it looking out to the sea. The cabin has a powerful shower. A larder fridge in the shed and ample kitchenware meant we could cook and feed ourselves way beyond what I expected of 'glamping'. We watched the stars from the skylight through the overhanging trees. We cooked pizza in the bbq. Samantha it was wonderful and I will sing it's praises for a long time! I really hope to visit again.😍😍😍

🔥🌊 We Support the RNLI – And You Can Too! 🌊🔥

As many of you know, we already support the RNLI through our wood sales – every time you buy logs for your hot tubs or fires during your stay, a portion goes directly to this incredible charity.

The RNLI is close to our hearts. With so many visitors enjoying the coast throughout spring and summer, their work is more vital than ever – keeping our shores safe, and always ready to respond in emergencies.

This season, we’re stepping things up with some additional fundraising, and we’d love your help! Whether you're a returning guest or just someone who loves the sea, every bit of support helps the RNLI continue their lifesaving mission.

📢 Share this post to help spread the word!


Thank you for being part of our community – and for helping protect the coastline we all love. 🌊

I’m taking on the Mayday Mile to support RNLI lifesavers during their busiest time of year. Will you help me fundraise and make a lifesaving difference?
