Great spaces

Spacious house, lovely kitchen and big, comfy sitting room. Bedrooms and bathrooms all high standard. Great area. We were disappointed that the Aga was out of order.

The house was exactly as described on the website. It was spacious, comfortable, and well equipped and the kitchen had everything we needed. The bedrooms are lovely and the beds very comfortable and our family loved all of the shelves of books. Everything was exceptionally clean. The location is perfect for access to the coast and the Northumbrian countryside and only a few minutes walk from the local pub where we had a lovely meal. We had excellent communication from the property manager. Our family will definitely be coming back.
