    “The cottage was ok and in a good location.”

    But it was a shame to see that previous feedback had not been acted upon and we encountered similar issues with cleanliness, lack of some basic things like loo roll and the towel radiator still not working. This, combined with no washing line (for a house next to the beach) meant it was tricky to dry swimming gear/towels each day. Having a wet room as the main bathroom was impractical, meaning the floor remained wet for some time making toilet trips/teeth brushing tricky. There were damp/mouldy ...

    But it was a shame to see that previous feedback had not been acted upon and we encountered similar issues with cleanliness, lack of some basic things like loo roll and the towel radiator still not working. This, combined with no washing line (for a house next to the beach) meant it was tricky to dry swimming gear/towels each day. Having a wet room as the main bathroom was impractical, meaning the floor remained wet for some time making toilet trips/teeth brushing tricky. There were damp/mouldy patches on some walls and window blinds and the bed linen in the children's bedroom was worn out and bleach stained. All in all, not what would be expected from the price.

About the location

BAMBURGH

Seahouses 3.5 miles; Beadnell 5.1 miles; Alnwick 16.9 miles.

The village’s sweeping sandy beaches and dramatic fortress - Bamburgh Castle - make Bamburgh one of Northumberland’s major visitor attractions. The castle can be seen for miles and dominates this part of the county’s coastline. Today it remains home to the family of the great Victorian industrialist Lord Armstrong, and is open to the public on a daily basis. Although overshadowed by the great castle, Bamburgh village is picturesque with neat grey stone cottages facing a manicured village green. There are excellent pubs, hotels with restaurants and a small selection of village shops. There are golf courses in Bamburgh and nearby Seahouses, and within easy reach are more wide sandy beaches, lovely fishing villages, stunning castles and coastal islands to explore along the dramatic Heritage Coast. There are numerous other attractions also a short drive away, including the famous Alnwick Castle and Gardens and the historic walled border town, Berwick-upon-Tweed. A superb base for exploring Northumberland.
