“Second stay this year and would certainly recommend.”

“Very roomy bungalow with just about everything required to make for a comfortable stay.”

The views to the rear are fantastic for watching wildlife, and give the feeling of total privacy. A nice collection of books and games for those days that the weather won't allow outdoor activities. The beach is only a three minute walk through the snicket in the corner, and unlike nearby Alnmouth is almost empty of people which pleased us to be honest. Boiler is a great base for exploring Northumberland, with Alnmouth, Seahouses, and Bamburgh only a short drive away. We also enjoyed a day out in Gragside near Rothbury which is only 30 mins drive. We highly recommend The Running Fox artisan cafe in Longhoughton for delicious home cooked meals. On the whole we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Boulmer and will definitely be coming back soon.

“This is the second time we have stayed at this property.”

It is very comfortable with everything you need and the location is great for the beach. One thing only to mention - I am allergic to feathers and most of the duvet and pillows are feather ones. I had to sleep in a single bed in another room in order to find non-feather bedding. It might be an idea to get rid of the feather ones as many people have allergies. We have stayed before and I moved into another room then too for the same reason. The small window to the bathroom won't close which is fine for airing it, but not so good for security.

“Our 3rd stay.”

Lovely bungalow - home from home - thank you to the owners. It’s in a quiet village and is close to the sea for beach/coastal path walks. We will definitely return again.

“Good location, comfortable stay.”

Could do with a bit of TLC and redecoration. eg bathroom window didn't open, fridge shelves cracked and where the new electric radiators had been fitted (over two years ago) there had been no effort to make good the area where the old rads were.
