    “Just returned home from our stay.”

    Location fantastic, views amazing. Parking tricky when cars from other properties parking. Very tight. Ordered an on line shop with the postcode provided, not recognised by Sainsbury's. Property is a little tired and the cleaning wasn't up to standard. The lounge smelt of dog and the rug and carpet needs replacing. The drainer in the sink was thick with grease. All this said this cottage is in a wonderful position and we really enjoyed our week.

    Thank you for your feedback and we are glad to hear you liked the location of Maries Cottage, with those amazing views over the harbour and enjoyed your weeks stay there. I am sorry to hear that the cleaning was not entirely satisfactory. I have taken up the points you raised with the housekeeping team. The rug in the sitting room is being replaced and the carpet given a deep clean. We hope to welcome you back another time Property Owner

About the location

CRASTER

Alnwick 7 miles; Embleton 3 miles.

A picturesque village that seems to tumble into the sea, Craster was an important fishing harbour in the 17th century and is still famous for its oak cured kippers which have graced the best breakfast tables for more than 150 years. The village offers a pub serving food, a fish restaurant and Robson's famous fish shop. There is also an excellent children's playground. Nearby are some of Northumberland's finest sandy beaches. Just south of Craster is Howick Hall, which was built in 1782 and has associations with the Grey family, including Earl Grey the great social reformer and tea enthusiast. The gardens at Howick Hall are open to the public during the spring and summer and are especially worth a visit during the rhododendron season. A walk along the coastal footpath to the north of Craster brings you to the dramatic ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle - the largest ruined castle in Northumberland.
