    “We’ve stayed at this property before and had a great experience.”

    The location is perfect, which is why we chose to return. Unfortunately, this time there was a very unpleasant smell when we arrived. We opened all the windows and hoped it would clear by the next day. We believed the smell was coming from blocked drains. It was manageable during the day with the windows open, but after they had been closed overnight, the smell was very bad again the following morning.

    The location is perfect, which is why we chose to return. Unfortunately, this time there was a very unpleasant smell when we arrived. We opened all the windows and hoped it would clear by the next day. We believed the smell was coming from blocked drains. It was manageable during the day with the windows open, but after they had been closed overnight, the smell was very bad again the following morning. I tried calling Sykes several times but couldn’t get through to anyone. I also sent a message via WhatsApp but only received an automated response. Eventually, someone came to investigate following my WhatsApp message, but it would have been courteous to let us know they were coming. The engineer simply flushed the toilet and said there wasn’t a problem, despite the smell still being very noticeable. Unfortunately, the issue wasn’t resolved. The property itself is lovely and we still really like it, but it was disappointing that the smell wasn’t properly addressed, especially considering this isn’t a cheap place to stay. Better communication and a more thorough investigation would have made a big difference.

The property

Turning Tide, a well-appointed, three-bedroom home rests in the harbour village of Beadnell, upon the Northumberland Coast AONB.

Just a stone's throw away from the beach and a selection of amenities, Turning Tide offers a well-equipped base for a family of seven, whilst also welcoming one well-behaved dog.

Park up on the private driveway, unloading your belongings with ease, before stepping indoors to be greeted by the living/dining room, stylishly furnished with plush seating, a bench-style dining table, and a rustling woodburning stove.

Relax and unwind in this space, with a good book in hand, whilst the designated chef of your group becomes acquainted with the fully integrated kitchen.

After a homecooked meal and a film night, slope off to sleep in one of the three bedrooms on offer, including ground floor double with en-suite wet room, upstairs a further double, and a family room.

A spacious bathroom completes the home, providing plenty of space to refresh ahead of your Northumberland itinerary.

With Beadnell Bay Beach a short walk away, spend the morning strolling along its golden sands, before heading to the local convenience store to stock up on the essentials, whilst The Landings eatery offers a wonderful setting to dine, sample some local produce and take in the coastal views.

Travel north to visit Seahouses, home to a golf club, bustling harbour, and plenty of amenities, whilst Bamburgh Beach is also a must-visit, well-positioned near the impressive structure of Bamburgh Castle and the characterful Bamburgh Lighthouse.

Rerouting south, be sure to tour Dunstanburgh Castle, discover Craster Harbour, and explore Howick Hall Gardens & Arboretum, ahead of returning home for supper.

Gather your loved ones at Turning Tide.

About the location

BEADNELL

Seahouses 1.5 miles; Bamburgh 5 miles.

This attractive and peaceful harbour village is situated beside one of the most beautiful stretches of Northumberland’s Heritage Coastline - Beadnell Bay. Established in Saxon times, Beadnell was once an important fishing village and a smuggler's haven. Nowadays, it is still a fishing village, but is equally popular with holidaymakers who come to enjoy its pretty harbour and, of course, the nearby sandy beaches. The village has a shop, two pubs and a café serving food. Popular Seahouses is just over a mile away and has shops, a supermarket and restaurants, and it also offers boat trips from the harbour to the magnificent Farne Islands - a haven for bird watchers. Bamburgh is close by, whilst the market town of Alnwick with its Castle and Gardens, shops, pubs and restaurants is a short drive away.
