Kilnknowe Cottage, Coldingham

Coldingham which is famed for its ancient Priory and ‘Blue Flag’ beach, is a highly desirable coastal village with its traditional buildings and quaint winding streets. Kilnknowe Cottage lies close to the heart of the village and itself is a particularly attractive building with its charming stone walls and red pantile roof; a real picture postcard property.

With a south facing aspect, super open views and a quaint sheltered garden this cottage has lots to offer.
