Property is even more spacious than appears in the photos, lovely big welll equipped kitchen. Amble has plenty of places to eat and drink, coastal walks from the door and lots of places to visit in the car. Thank you for a lovely stay in a beautiful cottage and beautiful part of the country.

Was clean, comfortable, very quiet area, really quiet during the night. Friendly cockerel nearby. LOLAll amenities were perfect.Had no issues.The host informed us prior to leaving there had been a delay in forwarding door key information as there had been a cistern leak, with a follow up call just after arrival. All satisfactory and most helpful information to keep a check on it.Overall everything positive.

Great cottage

We stayed 5 nights here and had a fantastic stay. The cottage is spotlessly clean, really comfortable and has everything you need. The log burner is really cosy in the evening and the location is great for exploring the surrounding cost. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Ideal Northumberland base

Clean, tidy and warm property, centrally located and adequately equipped with everything you could need. Recently installed log burner was a welcome addition and made for cosy evenings. Reasonably priced, we would happily stay again. Next time we will bring our bicycles as appeared to be plenty of cycle routes in the local area.
