Darling Cottage

This is a fabulous property and very spacious ( there were four adults staying).

The kitchen/diner is particularly impressive and we spent most of our time there when relaxing in the house. It’s very close to the village so an ideal location if looking for the choice to eat out but, due to the excellent facilities, we did this less often than planned. The open outlook at the back enhanced the garden and made it very pleasant when sitting on the patio.

An amazing house,so comfortable and welcoming (our second stay),the owners have thought of and provided everything.

Excellent location for visiting other places and walking locally but quiet garden for stay at home time. Thank you for wine,chocolates and biscuits very thoughtful. We are already looking to come back next year.

Comfortable spacious property in an ideal location close to Bamburgh centre.

Darling Cottage is quiet and peaceful. Ideal for visiting this area of Northumberland. Note to the owners: There is grass blocking the guttering at the rear of the property which needs cleaning out.

As a return visiting 3 generation family this Holiday Home always delivers.

Wonderful location and owners that obviously care about their visitors. Look forward to returning next Year

This is a lovely cottage which is let down by several minor issues that could be easily resolved.

Front door handle is very loose and got stuck at one time making the door impossible to lock. Fortunately persistence unjammed the mechanism. Patio door has dropped and is difficult to open and close. I had to repair the towel stand downstairs as very loose. I also repaired the loose bathroom door handle downstairs. The WiFi is abysmal and at times this caused Sky/Netflix to hang. The downstairs toilet flush is totally inadequate and the disgusting state of the brush indicates that this is a long term problem. The shower upstairs has inadequate pressure. The oven and hob are difficult to operate. Poor quality knives and scissors. Cleaning could be better. The welcome pack was appreciated.

When we arrived, I noticed how well-maintained the building and the outside were.

On entering and inspecting the rooms, I noticed that the owners had taken great care of the fixtures and fittings, which were not cheap. The beds were really comfortable. The owners even left dishwasher tablets, cleaning materials, dish cloths and tea towels. In fact, Keith and his good lady couldn't have done more to. make our stay more enjoyable. There was a large file with all the information about the cottage and the workings of the equipment in the cottage, as well as info about surroundin area. This all made our stay more enjoyable. I would recommend this property to anyone, which I have already done to our friends, and if we are up that way again, that's where we will stay. A great big thank you to you both. I'm afraid the only thing that I would say is that the WIFI was a tad slow, but it didn't matter. This did not affect our stay one bit

The cottage is amazing, so spacious and had everything we needed.

It's location to the beach is brilliant. We will definitely be looking to book again!

Darling cottage is perfect.

From start to finish we had the best time. There was everything you needed for a self catering holiday. The beds are comfortable and the house was very cosy. Television has lots of channel choices. Its a 5 minute walk to the vars and restaurants which are lovely. Thus must be the best UK holiday I've had. Thank you.

A lovely cottage with all mod cons.

Very comfortable also. A 3 min walk from village and 10 min walk to beach and castle. Would highly recommend this property. Def intending to book again.

Absolutely superb.

This is our 3rd stay and it won't be our last. The cottage is huge, cosy, welcoming, beautiful and in the most perfect location. There is nothing more to say. It's 10 out of 10 from us.

Beautiful house, everything you could wish for Very short walk to shop and restaurants.

When we first entered the property, there was a very bad smell that lingered arising from the cleaner using a dirty mop on the hard flooring.

Drain on the patio was leaking out, the driveway was weedy, and the fridge freezer leaked. Internet access was poor, intermittent, coupled with zero 4G signal, meant we couldn't contact family nearby. Other than that, a pleasant enough stay, mainly because of the village and surrounding area rather than the accommodation. Really poor customer service from Northumbria Coast & Country Cottages, particularly Lynsey messaging on a no-reply email address - next to useless and hyper focused on the internet issue, when that was secondary to the other problems. I would strongly discourage anyone from renting with and through them.

Beautiful Family Home on wonderful location.

The whole family - 3 generations loved it.

Comfortable beds guaranteed a perfect nights sleep for all guests.

The kitchen was well equipped, lovely spacious room including the dining & seating area. A very bright and clean property, great outside space. The house is set in a perfect quiet location, easy access into Bamburgh. Would highly recommend this property, absolutely perfect.

Great stay in a cottage that perfectly suited our families needs.

A couple of bars of soap would have been good to have left us but the wine biscuits and chocolates were very welcome .

An amazing cottage, so comfortable with everything we needed and more, not to mention the welcome gifts.

All fixtures and fittings of the highest quality and in a great location. Outside the property was as well maintained as the inside, there was nothing we could find fault with. We would highly recommend Darling Cottage and hope to return in the not too distant future.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Darling Cottage.

Amazed how quiet it was when we were so close to the busy village.We have been to Northumberland on a number of occasions and we can safely say this was one of the best weeks we have ever had there. The layout of the house was spot on and my wife found the downstairs bedroom and bathroom perfect for her. Definately 10 out of 10 on every level.

The house was perfect for our stay.

Great location, the house was very light and spacious with all the amenities required.

An extremely clean and comfortable cottage conveniently situated near the centre of Bamburgh village.

Very helpful and comprehensive information provided by the owner regarding use of facilities.

Perfect spacious and clean cottage in a great location.

In good decorative order, all the kitchenware etc you need. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to friends and family. 10 out of 10. My experience with Sykes was very poor, however the cottage owner was very easy to deal with

The cottage is very high quality and a credit to the owners.

The location could not be better and we hope to return at some point

ENJOYED OUR STAY,NICE QUIET LOCATION,WOULD BOOK AGAIN.

HARD TO FAULT IN ANY WAY.THANKYOU.

This is the 3rd time we have stayed in Darling cottage and have loved each occasion Located in a lovely quiet cul-de-sac which is only a few minutes walk into Bamburgh centre

Absolutely gorgeous cottage.

Everything you could want, immaculately clean, spacious, warm, comfortable and very tastefully decorated. Brilliant location just a 5 minute stroll to the local eateries, Grace Darling museum and 15 minute walk to Bamburgh Castle and the beach. Longer walks from the door, no need to get back in the car.

Another excellent week at Darling Cottage.

The cottage was clean, comfortable and well equipped for our needs. A perfect place to stay when visiting the area.

Gorgeous, immaculate cottage very conveniently situated just a 5 minute stroll from the restaurants in Bamburgh.

The cottage is very warm, spacious and tastefully decorated. The kitchen is well equipped, the showers are hot and powerful, the beds are comfy and it's a very quiet area. We loved it so much we have already booked to go back, Twice!

Darling Cottage is great property for a holiday in Northumberland.

The house is very spacious, well furnished, comfortable and immaculately kept. The location is ideal for walking to the amenities, beach, park and the castle etc in the village of Bamburgh and for exploring Northumberland. We had a fantastic half term break with two young kids and will definitely be returning.

No faults at all great location .

The cottage was really cosy felt very homely and relaxing and use of space well planned out .Ideal location for walks and centre of Bamburgh

A very comfortable and warm house to stay in.

Lovely cottage.

Was well presented and had everything we needed. Couldn’t ask for better. Would recommend it.
