“Lovely clean cottage to stay in.”

Plenty of space & beds comfortable. Arrived to a lovely welcome pack which was much appreciated. Bonnie's retreat is close to everything you need, takeaways, restaurants and convenient stores. Lovely Marina and beach 10 min walk (no dogs allowed on beach). However, Warkworth beach (5-10 min drive) was fantastic for a walk with the dog. Took advise from owners of property to park round corner (no issues). We would recommend Bonnie's retreat to stay in for a break. Thanks for a lovely stay :)

“Comfortable and well equipped.”

Useful ground floor bedroom for guest with more limited mobility and the ensuite welcome. Clean and spacious deceptive from outside. Very enjoyable stay. Would recommend.

Thank you for taking the time to leave such lovely feedback.

Thank you once again and we would love to welcome you back to Bonnie's in the future. Property Owner

“A lovely place, well equipped, spotlessly clean and very comfy beds!”

The neighbours had a fine art of blocking any parking outside but we parked round the corner no problems.

“The property didn’t look much from the outside but we were hugely surprised when we stepped indoors.”

It was a beautiful property with high quality facilities and decorated tastefully throughout. The outside space was small but maximum use was made of it and we spent a lot of time there. Communication was excellent, before and during our stay. Would highly recommend!

“Bonnies is a very comfortable, good value holiday house with the added plus of a sun trap courtyard with comfy patio furniture.”

excellent location and very good communication with the host (thank you for considering our elderly mother) plus, great info pack and recommendations to nearby eateries and attractions. I would say that the downstairs bedroom is not really suited to those with limited mobility as the bed was very near to the walls and the loo was in a tiny space but, the upstairs rooms, especially the master, were lovely. Great week was had by the whole family.

- Julie, June 2024

Many thanks for your feedback. We accept that the downstairs bedroom will not suit all our guests and are always looking for ways to improve the guest experience. We are glad you had a lovely time in Northumberland and would love to welcome you and your family back to Bonnie's in the future. Property Owner

There has been no expense spared by the owners on providing quality furnishings and equipment. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a stay in Amble.

“Fabulous accommodation, everything catered for and lovely little touches in every room make this a great place to stay, ideally situated for walking down Ambles main street onto marina, harbour, beach and variety of eating and drinking places and for access to main road to visit all that beautiful Northumberlands surrounding coast and countryside has to offer.”

“Communication from the hosts prior to our arrival was brilliant.”

Bonnie’s retreat is a lovely cottage with all you need for a break away with your family. It is situated near many beautiful beaches and a bustling harbour town. The welcome pack was a brilliant addition, with tea/coffee/biscuits and even milk in the fridge for a cuppa after your long journey. Thanks Russel and Elizabeth, we will definitely be back.

- Rosa, January 2024

The property

Resting in a delightful area in the Northumberland village of Amble is Bonnie's Retreat, a lovely, four-bedroom home. Just stroll away from local shops, eateries, the marina, harbour and the beach, Northumberland Coast AONB, and a host of attractions, Bonnie's Retreat welcomes seven guests or eight on request and two canine companions for a family getaway. Park up to the roadside before entering the property, firstly reaching the sitting room, complete with plush seating, a TV, and an electric fire, where you can unwind after a day of travelling. Continue through to the kitchen, well-equipped to fulfil your self-catering needs, including a washing machine and a dishwasher, before heading to the enclosed courtyard to enjoy meals alfresco. Head indoors to catch some rest, selecting between a king-size, a twin ideal for friends sharing, a single, and a ground-floor king-size with a handy en-suite cloakroom. The property is complete with a spacious bathroom, housing both a bath and a shower for convenience. Kickstart your day with a visit to the harbour, grabbing a bite to eat at The Old Boathouse restaurant, and stocking up on the essentials at the convenience store, before exploring the Hauxley Wildlife Discovery Centre, East Chevington Bay Beach, and Druridge Bay Country Park, resting south. Head for the coastline, where you'll locate the magnificent Warkworth Castle, or enjoy a stroll along Warkworth Beach, a dog-friendly landscape, before heading for Alnwick, its Bailiffgate Museum, River Aln, and characterful Alnwick Abbey Gatehouse. Complete your getaway by visiting the Northumberland Zoo, discovering the pretty grounds of National Trust - Cragside, or accessing the Northumberland National Park for a day of hiking, cycling and bird watching. Experience all of this at Bonnie's Retreat.

About the location

AMBLE

Warkworth 1 mile; Alnmouth 4 miles.

The bustling little seaport of Amble is situated at the mouth of the River Coquet and is an ideal place for exploring Northumberland. Historically a centre for boatbuilding, Amble offers a marina, a harbour, sandy beaches and coastal walks to the bird sanctuary at Hauxley and country park at Druridge Bay. Large fishing boats moor along the harbour wall and land a variety of fish, prawns, crabs and lobsters. There is a fish centre on the side of the harbour that is now primarily a shell fish hatchery to re-stock levels of lobster and other shell fish, this sells local fish and is open to the public. A mile south of Amble is Coquet Island, an RSPB reserve with a large population of terns, puffins and eider ducks and boat trips around the island can be arranged. The pretty coastal villages of Alnmouth and Craster and numerous superb beaches are only a short stroll away, whilst picturesque Warkworth with its castle, charming Alnwick with its castle and award-winning gardens, and the National Trust’s Wallington Hall and Cragside are all within easy reach.
