Hotel Review
Hotel Review: Beadnell Towers, Northumberland
Close to one of Northumberland's best beaches, this boutique-style seaside hotel mixes a designer smartness with rustic touches of beams, stripped floors and exposed stone walls. Popular with families and dog owners, there's a buzzy bar and dining area serving up hearty dishes, with seafood a favourite.

OUR REVIEW
THE NEIGHBOURHOOD
On one of the two main streets of Beadnell village, it's a ten-minute walk from the beach and less than a minute's drive from Northumberland's coastal road that leads from Alnmouth, 12 miles to the south, up to Bamburgh five miles to the north. It's a quiet setting, yet easily accessible, though despite the closeness of the beach few rooms have sea views. Other than a couple of shops and another hotel, Beadnell's main attraction is its lovely, curved and family-friendly beach. Bamburgh Castle, five miles north, is the area's big draw.
By car: around 1 hour 10 mins from Newcastle, 2 hours from Edinburgh and 6 hours 30 mins from London. There is free parking on-site.
By train: there are direct train to Alnmouth from Newcastle (25 minutes), Edinburgh (1 hour) and London Kings Cross (3 hours 40 minutes). The hotel is a 30-minute drive from the station. Book trains to Alnmouth.

THE LOOK AND FEEL
While the outside is austere, inside everything has a sassy look that mixes rustic chic with seaside-y touches while also remaining practical: parquet flooring, exposed stone walls, leather and velvet-covered chairs, statement lampshades and assorted nautical paraphernalia. The odd vintage touch of Bakelite telephones and leather suitcases adds to a sense of fun.

THE FACILITIES
There's a small sitting room - though sometimes used as an overspill dining area - plus a pleasant outside terrace beside the car park. Beach chairs can be hired and wellies borrowed if you've forgotten to bring them. The staff are young and chirpy.

FOOD AND DRINK
Not surprisingly, given the location, the menu majors on fishy food - including local oysters and mussels and beer-battered fish and chips - served in straightforward, hearty portions. Their homemade burger is also popular and there are always daily specials. Breakfast is cooked to order and includes local kippers plus a vegetarian grill.
The Towers Kitchen: fine dining, seasonal, local produce, modern British cuisine. Open for breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner. Dinner mains from £14.
