“Our 5th stay at Adderstone Cottage and it feels like a home from home.”

Warm and comfortable, with plenty of room for 6 adults, and a well equipped kitchen. We appreciate plenty of mugs etc so not having to constantly wash up. The conservatory is lovely. There are loads of things to do in the area and we are still discovering new places. Would highly recommend.

“The cottage is set in a lovely area but has its issues.”

The bedrooms are lovely and clean but the bathrooms and kitchen let the cottage down. Flooring in the hallway needs attention too. It states that it has a pittza oven but this is not fit for use, moss and cob webs and mud in the opening. Could not be used. Apart from this our stay was ok. Contacted Sykes after our stay regarding these issues, but the owner and Sykes are not interested.

- Jennifer, February 2026

We are sorry that you did not find the cottage to your satisfaction. You had our mobile number and that of the agency if you felt that there were issues with the property. The first we knew about this was 2 weeks after you left. I think you should have at least contacted us or Sykes to give the opportunity to put these issues right. Your comments made, that neither Sykes nor owner are not interested is extremely upsetting and not true. In a private email forwarded to us by Sykes your statement says that “some of the people that completed reviews for Adderstone Cottage may have worn rose coloured glasses” which is extremely derogatory. We have had the property for over 10 years. Many return guests and I am sorry that we cannot be 100% all of the time. Property Owner

“We stayed over Christmas at Adderstone Cottage - what an incredible stay we had.”

The pictures don’t do the cottage justice, it was incredibly well equipped and comfortable. It was quiet and peaceful without being too far from local amenities, we visited Bamburgh, Alnwick, Cragside and Holy Island easily during our stay. The beds were all very comfy, the tv in the lounge and field view bedroom had the full sky tv package and the WiFi worked well. We can’t recommend this cottage enough. Hopefully we will return in 2026. Thank you for your hospitality Judith and Colin.

- Charlotte, December 2025

Thank you for your excellent feedback. We are pleased that our upgraded central heating system is working well for a winter holiday. We have always endeavoured to provide guests with a well equipped and comfortable property. Property Owner
Jo October 2025

“We could not have been happier with our stay at Adderstone cottage!”

Extremely comfortable and inviting with a superbly equipped kitchen. We loved spending time in the conservatory watching the deer and bird life. The layout of the bedrooms is ideal for multi-generational holidays. The location, near to beautiful, wild beaches, could not be better.

Elizabeth August 2025

“We visited Northumberland in August.”

The cottage is fantastic. Really nicely presented. It had everything we could have wanted. Lovely location as well, really nice to be able to sit out in the garden and star gaze. It was really close to so many great places and activities as well, which made for easy days out (important with two kids, two dogs and grandparents) Couldn’t recommend it enough. Thank you for a wonderful holiday.

Clare August 2025

“The cottage was in an ideal location.”

Very peaceful. It had everything we required, it was like home from home. The beds were extremely comfortable. I have been coming to Northumberland for my holidays for the past 35 years and this cottage was the best that I have stayed in for a long time.

“Fabulous cottage in a lovely setting.”

One thing I would recommend is to have door screens fitted on both conservatory doors to stop wasps and insects flying in. Thank you.

“We had a wonderful time at Adderstone cottage A very spacious comfortable cottage with everything you could possibly need Great base for exploring the nearby beaches Enclosed areas for our 2 whippets The conservatory was a great space to have meals.”

Lynda May 2025

“Location was spot on.”

Cottage was amazing. Lovely garden. Lot of time spent in the conservatory looking out over the sheep field. More than ample parking for our estate car. Definitely one to return to.

Sarah May 2025

“Our fourth stay and the cottage is as delightful as ever.”

Spacious, clean and comfortable. Well equipped kitchen. Lovely conservatory. Plenty to see and do nearby, but provides a tranquil haven to return to. Adderstone feels like a home from home as it is obviously used and loved by the owners. We had a super week and didn’t want to leave.

- Sarah, May 2025
Peter May 2025

“Our stay in Adderstone cottage was marvellous.”

It was well equipped with plenty of everything you need and the views out of the end bedroom and the conservatory out over the fields were fantastic. We were very lucky with the weather and had sunshine every day. We would definitely recommend it and hope to go back again. Pete, Claudia, Mike and Les.

“This was our first time staying in this cottage and we would definitely book it again.”

Great location, it's got everything you need, the bed was super comfortable and the cottage was really warm.

Julia November 2024

“Thank you for a fabulous week in this lovely comfortable cottage that provides everything you could possibly need (and more!”

). If you enjoy stunning vast beaches and unspoilt countryside that is steeped in history with its many castles, then Northumberland is definitely the place to visit.

- Julia, November 2024
Deborah September 2024

“Our second stay at Adderstone Cottage and once again, it was a great week.”

Being lucky with the weather, we managed to use all areas of the cottage - we even sat outside in the sunshine one afternoon after a long walk. The conservatory is a brilliant space and was well used for eating, reading, playing games and just listening to the radio. The bedrooms are clean and comfortable. Likewise the three bathrooms. With 6 adults and 1 dog sharing the space, there was more than enough crockery and cutlery not to mention cooking utensils. It's location just off the A1 means the cottage is ideally placed for visiting all areas in Northumberland. And yet it still has a sense of remoteness as it's outlook is over neighbouring fields.

- Deborah, September 2024

Thank you for your lovely feedback. Glad you enjoyed Adderstone Cottage. Not in charge of the weather but always a bonus. Property Owner
Tam September 2024

“Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Adderstone Cottage.”

It was very clean, spacious, peaceful and we loved the conservatory. Great location for exploring. No washing up cloths/sponges provided, not the fault of the owners at all who attempted to rectify, but without success. I do think oven gloves would be the one useful addition to an otherwise well stocked kitchen.

- Tam, September 2024

As you said we did try. But were severely let by Sykes and housekeeping . All those things you requested including oven gloves are normally provided and should have been . We are pursuing this for the sake of our guests. Property Owner
Bob August 2024

“Great cottage, the family and the dog loved it.”

It had every amenity we could think of. Peaceful and a great location I'm a novice with woodburners BBQ's etc, so we didn't use them. I only found the instructions on lighting the wood burner on our last day. A quick guide in the fireplace might be useful. We weren't quite sure if we would have had to clean out the woodburner if we did use it. Also the instructions were to put bed linen in the bath on leaving, but we weren't sure if this meant the whole lot , duvets and pillows etc.

- Bob, August 2024
Alison August 2024

“Perfect location - beautiful views and well equipped accommodation.”

Angelina June 2024

“We found the cottage comfortable and well equipped.”

Whilst the garden may be small, we thought it was very pretty and I imagine children may like the little nooks and crannies. The sun-room would benefit from ceiling blinds as it was very hot in there and it did make the lounge and kitchen a bit dark. However, it was a nice extra. The super king bed was very comfy, so often the beds can be the weak area in properties. There were no dishwasher tablets, which was strange as rinse aid and salt. Luckier I had popped a couple in my packing, so not a problem. Overall we had a good week and my husband was delighted to have Sky movies thrown in!

- Angelina, June 2024

Thanks for your review and glad you had a good week. We apologise for the lack of dishwasher tablets. There should have been some and will inform housekeeping to make sure they are there in the future. We are aware that the kitchen and lounge can be dark but the conservatory is one of the most popular features of the property. It faces east so doesn’t get the full sun and opening the windows usually keeps it a pleasant temperature. Property Owner

Allison April 2024

“We had a wonderful stay in a beautiful cosy cottage.”

My 2 elderly parents loved the stunning sun room and only gripe would be a sliding door on the en-suite as they found it difficult to get in and out. It’s in a wonderful location for exploring all the beautiful places but if you have a dog the road outside the cottage is very busy for convenience walks! I would highly recommend this property and we would certainly come back in a heartbeat…. we loved it❤️

- Allison, April 2024

We are very glad that you enjoyed your stay at Adderstone Cottage. We will look at the door to the en suite bathroom and see what can be done. Property Owner
Mary April 2024

“Everything as described.”

Easy to find off A1 in a good location for exploring the area. Very peaceful which was just what we wanted. Lovely to watch the sheep out of the conservatory window!

Sarah March 2024

“We love it at Adderstone and this was our 3rd stay.”

The cottage is so comfortable and well equipped, and as soon as we walked through the door we felt at home. Beds are comfy, the cottage is warm and the conservatory is a joy, especially on a sunny morning. Masses to do in the area. Would totally recommend, and already landing next year’s stay!

- Sarah, March 2024

Glad you once again enjoyed your stay and thanks for your feedback. Property Owner
Deborah November 2023

“Adderstone cottage was in the perfect location for us, giving easy access to the places we visited.”

Our party was 6 adults and it was very well equipped for that number of people. The conservatory was well used for eating our meals but also just sitting and looking at the view. Bedrooms were comfortable, each with a TV so no arguments about programmes to watch. Having 3 bathrooms was also a big plus as each couple had their own. There is a lovely patio area in the garden which I can imagine is perfect in the summer. Would we return? Yes, and have already booked for next year.

- Deborah, November 2023

Thank you for your comments . We are glad you enjoyed your stay. The patio has recently been constructed so we hope it will be enjoyed when the warmer weather arrives. Property Owner
Janet July 2023

“Excellent cottage.”

One of the best equipped we have ever used, both very dog and child friendly. Slight problem with one of the showers the only blip. We enjoyed being in the area very much with easy access to the coast, castles and seafood! We would like to rebook sometime in the future.

- Janet, July 2023

Glad you all enjoyed your holiday at Adderstone Cottage. The maintenance team have been have been informed about the problem with one of the showers. Thank you for letting us know. Property Owner

Maxine May 2023

“I would definitely book through Sykes Holiday Cottages again.”

My father was rushed in to hospital the day before we were due to go on our holiday, when I called Sykes Cottages, the lady I spoke to was fabulous, she had such empathy and was very helpful. We did get to go on our holiday, a day later than booked and I have to say that the cottage did not disappoint, it was lovely, the perfect place for us to rest and recuperate. The cottage was very clean and the way the rooms were presented was like walking into a 5 star hotel. Sitting in the conservatory looking out over the fields every morning and evening was the perfect way to start and end our days. We will definitely stay in this cottage again and would highly recommend it.

- Maxine, May 2023

Thank you so much for your comments about the property. We are so pleased the Sykes staff were both helpful and sympathetic when problems occurred just before your departure. Property owner Property Owner

“Our second visit within a year.”

This is a very comfortable cottage with great facilities and is very dog friendly. The cottage is warm and cosy (we stayed in February) and is becoming our home from home retreat! The cottage for us is well situated being a short driving distance to many of the towns, villages and visitor centres in North Northumberland. The owners are very friendly and continue to improve and enrich the cottage's facilities/equipment. Highly recommended - hope to be back soon.

- Alan, February 2023

Thank you for your kind review. We do try to maintain the property to a high standard and make improvements. We are glad that you had an excellent your stay and hope you will enjoy Adderstone again cottage soon. Property Owner

“This property was just like home, it was very well appointed and comfortable.”

The appliances and kitchen implements were all top quality as were the towels and bedding. The beds huge and comfy. The garden although small is really nicely planted and I was able to potter around watering and dead heading. The owners have thought of many conveniences to make your stay enjoyable and I would definitely recommend and rebook.

“The perfect property to meet the various needs of a family meeting up, which included a couple in their 80s.”

Due to storm Ali we spent a very enjoyable day playing board games in the spacious conservatory, rather than risking the planned trip to Berwick-upon-Tweed. A real home from home in a house that was very well equipped and obviously much loved.

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.
