View Self-Catering Holiday Cottages in Amble

Self-catering holidays in Amble are popular among water sports enthusiasts, thanks to the excellent range of activities available at the marina, including sailing and kayaking. Several companies provide boat trips to the island from the marina. Fishing in the sea and river is also popular, and the RSPB reserve of Coquet Island lies just off the coast, where thousands of seabirds and a colony of seals can be seen. With its graceful harbour, marina and sandy beaches on its doorstep, it is a beautiful holiday destination.

The seaport of Amble lies on the windswept Northumberland coast, facing the North Sea, at the mouth of the River Coquet. During the 1930s, it became known as ‘the friendliest port’ after the town’s council sent RMS Mauretania the message, ‘Still, the finest ship on the seas’, and they replied with greetings to ‘the last and friendliest port in England’.
