The living room offers direct access to the shared courtyard with a small outdoor paved seating area. The French doors created a bright atmosphere but offer comfort with the use of internal wooden doors which create a relaxing setting at night.
Head upstairs and you’ll find The Old Smokey’s two bedrooms. Fully carpeted, the first bedroom boasts a king-size bed along with hanging space for your clothing. The calming interiors are perfectly complemented by the subtle touch of pink hues from the soft furnishings, creating a warm and cosy ambience.
The ensuite features a walk-in shower, a WC, and an oval mirror above the wash basin.
Not too far away is the second bedroom, which offers two single beds, fully carpeted flooring, and your own en-suite bathroom with scroll top bath, WC and basin with oval mirror above.

This bedroom features plenty of storage space for making yourself feel right at home, and French doors which open up to allow fresh Northumberland sea air to float into the space.
