Bank Holiday visit.
Our 3rd visit to The Bothy, and it didn't disappoint. Very well equipped, great views over the fields towards Bambrough Castle. Very comfortable beds, and Polly the Pointer loved Grandma's treats. So good we have recommended it to our neighbours who are due to visit shortly.
We loved staying in the beautiful cosy cottage. The views were stunning & it was the perfect base for touring the Northumberland coast. The host was friendly and very helpful.
We really enjoyed our stay at this comfortable well equipped cottage dogs very welcome and catered for. Welcome pack of wine and cake and treats for Millie our dog a ,nice thought , good location with views of countryside and sea. We look forward to returning in the future. Ann and Tony

The Bothy
Nice cottage, dog friendly, unfortunately garden tired, broken glass found in garden, grubby patio, clothes left in drawers from previous clients, toilet cystern broke, on a good note the bed was very comfortable and the welcome pack was a nice touch!

Another wonderful stay
This was our 3 stay at the Bothy. We had all the properties for a family party, As we have learnt to expect everything was wonderful clean & comforable. The accommodation is great for a couple or with children. The owners are amazing & great to deal with from booking to arrival & departure. Thank once again. Have already booked for next year.

The Bothy
Lovely cottage with super views. The Bothy has everything you need and is managed by a super family who cannot do enough to make your stay as comfortable as possible.

Cosy cottage just outside Beadnell
Lovely 2 bedroomed cottage with views out over the fields of sheep. Great for a week with our 2 Collies. Safe enclosed spacious garden with a covered shelter where we could clean them off before going into cottage. Great place to light a fire pit & watch the sunset after a busy day, even in October!
Cottage was small but welcoming, with very comfy bed, would stay here again.

Fab-U-Lous
The Bothy is simply wonderful. The garden and its views are amazing and we could have just sat in the garden all day and evening and just admired the beautiful views. The property itself is brilliantly equipped. The beds are so comfortable and the living room is really cosy and homely. Highly, highly recommended!

Lovely accommodation in a perfect spot
This was the first of hopefully many stays at Mains Cottages. The welcome provided on site was lovely and we were blown away by the cottage - the kitchen is small but functional - however the rest of the cottage was perfect for our needs. No corners have been cut, this is a real home from home. If you’re thinking of going to Beadnell, this is the place to stay .

Lovely cottage
We had a lovely time in Northumberland and The Bothy was a great base from which to explore. It's small but perfectly formed!
The beds are super comfy, kitchen well equipped and lounge/dining room just right.
Shower stall is very snug (for us larger ladies) but manageable for a week.
One thing to be aware of; although the garden is completely enclosed, anything larger than a Chihuahua could easily hop over the stone wall into the garden next door!

New year getaway
We had a wonderful stay in the Bothy, great location for local beaches and walks and lots of nice place to eat. Very cosy cottage, warm, welcoming and dog friendly with a lovely gift pack awaiting us.
Everything you need and more, very well equipped and so peaceful.
Due to a family bereavement we had to leave a day early but Sam was so helpful and we were supplied with wood for the fire pit at short notice for New Year’s Eve.
Would thoroughly recommend and we would love to come back .

Both Beadnell
Excellent customer service from Sam & her nephew ! Location is beautiful we had the most lovely welcome pack homemade local cake chocolate & fizz
Well equipped two bedroom cottage overlooking fields of Northumberland sheep.
We were delighted to find the cottage provided all we needed and was comfortable and homely. The view from the back was relaxing and cottage a good position for the coast and any needs. We enjoyed meeting friendly Sam and her husband and found them friendly and accessible by phone for any concerns. This makes such a difference to have personal connection . We enjoyed the provisions they left Eg cake etc - I used the ironing board for a function so thanks for supplying that. We love northumberland and this area and we’ll be back I am sure!

Great place to get away from it all
What an amazing place to relax and recharge the batteries. Spent a lot of time in the swing chair on the patio watching the cows and sheep - never knew before how relaxing that could be!
The village is a short walk away and we enjoyed a lovely lunch at the Craster Arms and also breakfast at The Landing on another day. There is a village shop but it’s quite pricey so bring your own supplies or there’s a Co-op in Seahouses (next village along). .
The Bothy was very comfortable, beds so comfy, fab shower, a chest full of games, the kitchen was very well equipped and we loved the cake, fizz and dog treats too. Lovely added touch leaving pumpkins for the children to carve as well as a few Halloween themed games.
We will definitely be back - thank you x

Cosy cottage in a good location for exploring Northumberland
Had an enjoyable stay at the Bothy - good location for exploring Northumbria. Kitchen was well equipped and the welcome pack was fab! Lots of thoughtful touches for the doggies too. Only thing that let it down was the cleanliness. There were cobwebs and thick layers of dust in places - needs a good deep clean. Some of the bathroom looks a bit tired and the shower doesn’t drain very well so backs up. The outdoor space looked great, unfortunately we couldn’t make much use of it as the weather was rubbish, but inside had a nice cosy feel to warm up and dry off. Could do with some more board games and a bigger TV for the wet days (had to get the binoculars out to see the TV ). Overall positive feedback with a couple of suggestions for improvement.
