    The cotage had not been cleared of the previous guests property which included night wear in the drawers and food in the freezer and cupboards 9 including rotting potatoes). We have always used Sykes Cottages and have been very pleased with each of the venues we have visited. Light keeper cottage needs a deep clean and decoration to achieve the standard expected. The Kitchen and bathroom were both acceptable but there were NO instructions to work any of the appliances, no information about recycling or checkout requirements like where to leave used bedding and towels. The duvet covers were not removable so we did question whether these had been washed prior to our visit. Unfortunately the outside space was a bit of a death trap for two women in their mid seventies, with odd pieces of metal and slippy steps so we could not use it. On the positive side the house is conveniently sited close to the harbour and we enjoyed walk along the causeway and into the town.

The property

This traditional end-terrace cottage is located in the conservation area of the vibrant fishing village of Amble.

Renovated to a good standard, this Amble cottage offers views over the scenic Northumberland coast towards Coquet Island, and is an ideal base for a family or a group of friends.

Tastefully decorated, this Amble cottage has two large bedrooms complete with a family bathroom benefiting from a rain shower.

The comfortable living area features a warming woodburner, perfect for cosy evenings, and with WiFi and a TV with Sky movies and sports package, guests are sure to be kept entertained.

French doors lead to the enclosed rear yard, plus a grassed side garden boasts unrestricted views of the coast and is an ideal spot for warmer evenings.

This Amble cottage is perfectly located for access to the dog-friendly beach, and here you will discover a pretty little cove with rock pools that little ones will delight in.

This charming Amble cottage is so named because the great-great-grandfather of the owner was the lighthouse keeper of Coquet Island; now a bird sanctuary.

Boat trips from the harbour offer sightseers the chance to pay a call on the resident puffins.

Numerous restaurants and dog-friendly pubs are just a short stroll from your Amble cottage, and you can visit the majestic Alnwick Castle, known as Hogwarts in the popular Harry Potter films, or explore miles of Heritage Coast nearby.

This cottage in Amble offers a relaxing break, and is a comfortable base from which to discover Northumberland.

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 - the daily catch can be bought at a fish shop in the harbour. 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 drive 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.
