Edendale

A lovely clean and well appointed cottage.

The owner has been thoughtful in the things provided and we had a very nice welcome pack. The cottage itself is in a perfect place as a base to see all the main attractions and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!!

Property is up for sale and I think this shows in the general maintenance of the property which requires some updating.

The water pressure is terrible making it almost impossible to have a shower and although you can run a bath it takes so long that it is essentially lukewarm, by the time it has run. There was a lack of any kind of welcome basket, so we didn't have any of the usual things that we expected, hand soap, a dish cloth, milk, pack of biscuits etc that are generally waiting there when we arrive at a property. It was however clean, the owner was very pleasant and contactable and the house is ideally placed as a base for visiting the wonderful sites on the doorstep and is fairly well equipped.

A very comfortable and well equipped home from home.

Excellent location for touring the area. Only down side was the old shower, not so effective for larger adults.

A beautiful cottage in a beautiful village location.

Communication with the owner was 100% and the welcome bottle of fizz was a lovely touch. The cottage is very well equipped and had everything you could need. The village is well provided for in terms of shops & pubs, the Village Inn is excellent for both food and drink and the Granby opposite serves wonderful food. Would recommend this cottage 100%

Gorgeous cosy cottage in the heart of Longframlington.

Perfect location for exploring Northumberland. The cottage is beautifully decorated and very well equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Cute little back yard provides outdoor space. Very friendly village with great facilities - two pubs where you can eat, artisan cafe and bakery and lovely park. Highly recommended.

Cosy cottage with character, conveniently situated between Alnwick and Rothbury.

Very well equipped kitchen although the kitchen scales weren't working! Plenty of hanging space in the master bedroom, which is a generous size. Small chest of drawers would be beneficial in the twin room. No problem with parking as there was always space on the pavement 100 yards or so from the property. Cottage is located on a main A road, which seems at its busiest in the early morning. By the evening it seems strangely deserted. Lovely local shops/pubs/cafe where you are assured of a warm welcome. Fabulous dark night skies for star-gazers up on the moors.

Beautiful cottage and a lovely village could not want for anything more the only regret was having to come home.

thank you for a lovely memory we will return

Gorgeous, super clean and comfy house with lots of lovely supplies and extras!

Thank you so much to the owner for making it an excellent place to stay in the village. Near the road but windows are effective and it was very peaceful. Lots to do in the area and stunning places to visit.

This was one of those rare stays that was just as promised and your torn wether to review or not because if you say all the nice things about the property you want to say you might not be able to return because it will be fully booked But because we did have a fantastic time and I am a nice person if you are looking for a cosy clean comfortable cottage then you will not be disappointed

Fabulous property.

We loved the location, everything was perfect. The village itself was really nice. Pubs and cafe were great. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely like to return.

Lovely cottage with everything you would need, cozy warm and comfortable with the log burner being a great plus, the owner went way above to ensure our stay was perfect.

Would definitely stay again.

Lovely, clean, well equipped property.

Lots of useful and pleasant communication from the owners. Would highly recommend

Such a well looked after, modern little house.

Felt instantly comfortable and relaxed on arrival and able to begin our little break. I took my own deep oven dishes which meant we could have a Roast Beef sunday dinner, however missed my mashed potatoes as there's no masher. I don't know if it's through time and amount of use from others but there seems to be an odd variety of dinner knives and twice as many forks. That's not a compliant just advice to the owners might need a new set.

Lovely warm cosy cottage.

Beautifully equipped. Just one tiny criticism could do with a small non stick frying pan and flat oven tray. Apart from that it was lovely. Beautiful welcome pack which was so generous.

We had a lovely stay at Edendale.

The owner had left a lovely welcome pack, which was very much appreciated. The beds were comfortable with crisp, clean linen. Clean towels were also provided. The 3/4 for maintenance and cleanliness, related to a constantly dripping kitchen tap and windows that needing cleaning, as did the glass canopy in the back courtyard. Sadly, the ‘kerb appeal’ was lacking as the front entrance needed sweeping and cleaning. We appreciated the property was on a main road, but it’s these details that are relevant we feel. Having said the above, we would certainly rebook the accommodation should we ever visit the area again. It was very convenient for travelling to tourist attractions, and the village had all one needed, i.e butchers, convenience store, bakery and two pubs; both of which served food. S&D

We’ve had a lovely week’s stay in Eden Dale, Framlington.

The cottage itself is well furnished, plenty of seating and very comfortable beds. It was clean and well cared for. We had everything we needed for the week and it provided a great base to explore the area. We were worried about parking initially but this was no problem, even with 2 cars. One thing to note is that the road is very busy and lorries and farm machinery pass frequently. This wasn’t a problem for us at night and it didn’t affect our sleep. The dog treats and towels mentioned in the info pack were not available (we didn’t need them but worth mentioning as we looked everywhere)! The yard is a great little space and the dogs did wee and poo in it - it would be useful to provide a hose on the outside tap just to wash anything away to prevent smelling (there is a watering can that was full so I used that, but a hose would have given a bit more pressure). Finally, and perhaps the biggest drawback for us is that the property is damp. We holidayed in August and it was a fairly dry week; however our clothes and bedding felt clammy throughout. A small dehumidifier is available and it collected a fair amount of moisture but not enough to prevent the problem.

The property is well designed, spacious and clean.

The enclosed courtyard to the rear is lovely with a canopy where you can sit out even if it rains. The village is exceptional too with a very good butchers, few pubs , great village shop and coffee shop. The communal enclosed field is great if you have dogs. It a great base and easy reach of all amenities Northumberland has to offer. Would definitely recommend and look like to go back in the future .

A comfortable warm and family friendly cottage having all equipment required for an enjoyable stay.

Outside space is limited, but dog safe; thank you.

Property was very nice and spacious.

A very nice welcome gift which was much appreciated. Beds comfortable with good thick towels provided. Good location within an easy drive of coast, castles and other local attractions. a few minor issues which we notified the owner about.

Absolutely beautiful cottage, so comfy and felt just like home!

Lovely place to return to after days out at the many places to visit. Our first time in Northumberland and sure it won’t be the last!!

A lovely, well equipped cottage in a beautiful village.

Village has 2 pubs , corner shop , butcher and a very yummy bakery , all within minutes walk from the front door. There are some good walks to the countryside from the cottage . Would definitely recommend a stay here .

Beautiful cosy cottage very spacious with all the amenities you need.

Lovely log burner and super comfy king size bed. Situated in a lovely little village with 2 pubs, corner shop, butchers and bakery right on your doorstop. Would definitely go back

Perfection.

Hard to find any other words, but we'll give it a go! The photographs actually didn't do this cottage justice. What a stunning property - beautifully decorated with outstanding attention to detail, the cottage had a really calm and relaxing vibe about it, and the courtyard is a little suntrap. We arrived to scented candles, soft Classic FM wafting in from the little radio in the kitchen, and a really thoughtful and generous welcome basket of goodies. You can tell that this was once a much-loved family home - you can feel it, and the owners clearly take a great deal of pride and care with it. We've used Sykes for years, and this is one of the best cottages we've found. Can't recommend highly enough. Thank you for such a wonderful week.

What a fabulous cottage.

It is spotlessly clean, well equipped and comfortable. Just one minor issue with the gas bottles was sorted straight away by the friendly owner. No issues with the on the street parking. The only minor disappointments were the two pubs (Granby is dog unfriendly and Village has poor beer choice and both are expensive) however this is no reflection on the accommodation and we would stay there again in a heartbeat.

The pictures of the property really do not show how spacious and comfortable it is.

All the facilities were good. We spent 5 nights there and it has everything you need. It's also in a good location to explore Northumberland. The hosts were very accommodating and happy to help. I've recommended to 2 friends already. Also, there is a Great Pub just down the road called the Village Inn which is dog friendly and does good food. Edendale was perfect for our mid-week break.

A simply stunning cottage in a beautiful location with nice pubs, shops and a cafe.

The cottage was spotless when we arrived and the owner had left a bottle of fizz for us which was most appreciated. Bedrooms were gorgeous and the beds really comfortable. All in all a great few days were spent here, thank you. We may well be back in the future as we love the area.

A beautiful, homely cottage, warm and comfortable.

We were delighted with the generous welcome pack. Once Terri was aware of a broken blind in the master bedroom it was replaced speedily.

Edendale is such a gorgeous cottage!

So homely and comfortable. And the hosts went above and beyond to make it a wonderful stay. They’d turned on the lights and the radio so that when we got there it was lovely and cozy. They’d asked if we wanted red or white wine and I’d said not to worry because we don’t drink and they’d gone out of their way to provide non-alcoholic fizz along with bread and cheese and grapes. That’s so thoughtful and lovely! There’s all you could need in the kitchen by way of utensils and pans and even cling film and foil etc. Such a well stocked house. The sofas and beds were very comfortable and it was warm and cozy. The bathroom is lovely. Everything is just exactly as you’d want it on holiday. So glad to have stayed there and will definitely be booking again!

This is a lovely cottage to stay in, very comfortable and furnished beautifully.

The facilities were good and the owner Terri was very welcoming and helpful, especially as we had to call her on a Sunday evening. The village is well supplied with two pubs, a shop and a butchers. The dogs were made to feel welcome at The Village Inn and the Running Fox. There is a designated field in the village for walking the dogs which was great,

Excellent property and the host kindly provided lots of treats for us

Delightful cottage.

Very accessible owner, who was friendly, helpful and instructive. Have no complaints whatsoever. Outside defies what is inside, very much bigger than you would think.

Hi, No problem, Terry the owner in my opinion went the extra mile with a good inclusive welcome pack, and even phoned us in advance to check on Wine preference, the Cottage was immaculate in every way, and the location great for the East Coast Tourist attractions, plus a Pub Restaurant two minutes across the road was a convenient advantage.

We would recommend this Cottage every time and will be returning in the future. Mr&Mrs J.B. Nicholson (Manchester )

The cottage was immaculate inside when we arrived.

It appeared to have been newly decorated throughout, the beds were very comfortable with high quality linen. It is situated on the main road with the advantage of an excellent pub restaurant immediately opposite as well as a really good café/coffee shop and village store within a short distance. However, there is only a narrow pavement and there is inevitable traffic noise. There is full central heating and a log burning stove but we found the bedrooms became very warm. On our arrival there were no instructions or information sheets at all. This meant we had to find things such as the wi-fi password on the router or the heating controls for ourselves. Much more detail would be very helpful. The kitchen is generally well-equipped but the pans are all large and heavy so need some trial and error on older electric hobs. The oven grill was very weak and strangely there was no grill pan or ovenware other than a large casserole dish. The location is convenient for both the stunning Northumberland coast or inland attractions.

A lovely cottage in a lovely village.

Our main problem was trying to get the oven/stove to work. Which we failed to do. Nothing wrong with the oven I believe, but an issue re setting the oven clock to get the thing to work. Never managed to figure this out and the instructions in the cottage information book was confusing. Unfortunately the landlady was away for a couple of days and then we were out a lot, so we went able to meet so she could she us what to do (she did offer). The Granby pub directly opposite the cottage is ok, feel a good pint, though we were disappointed with the limited range of takeaway options, with rather strange options for pizza. Oh and the key box, is a box that contains the house key, it is not an electronic system to unlock the door as we originally thought! Otherwise we had a lovely time

Lovely warm cottage, clean and tidy.

Really enjoyed our stay. Good choice of local attractions within a short drive.

The cottage is situated in a lovely village.

The cottage is is very homely. We loved the lounge with its log burner. We could not work out how to use the oven and the owner came out immediately. Bread, wine grapes and flowers were waiting for us

A really lovely, comfortable, cosy cottage.

Well-equipped, very clean, very tastefully decorated. The village had all the necessary amenities and the locals were extremely friendly. We had a fabulous holiday!

The cottage was lovely and clean and the beds were really comfortable.

We had a really warm welcome when we arrived with music playing and bread and wine out on the table. It was perfect for what we needed that week and we would definitely visit again.

Absolutely beautiful cottage, with lovely touch from the owner leaving bread, butter, milk and wine for us, meant we weren`t having to rush out to shops when we 1st got there, the fresh flowers in living room made it very inviting, i had took everything with me, but l need not have worried if l had forgotten something as there was washing powder etc in the cupboards.

Cottage was spotless and the pub over the road did a delivery service which was nice after a long day out sightseeing. Owner was only a call or text away if we needed anything, would definitely stay there again if we were to holiday in UK next year, plus was lovely that it was pet friendly as our little furbabys deserve a holiday too!

The cottage was lovely.

Parking is an issue though and in the description it did not highlight this. A few tweaks are required in the cottage particularly the lighting in the kitchen.

The cottage was very warm , welcoming and cosy and although situated on a busy main road the good secondary glazing kept traffic noise to an absolute minimum.

So dont let this deter you. The cottage was also very clean. A very reassuring factor. We felt that all covid guidelines were being implemented. Car parking was very convenient. Longframlington is a very friendly village,with good places to eat. (The Running Fox came top of our list)! It is well situated for the enjoyment of coast and countryside.

We really enjoyed Edenvale.

The cottage was lovely, the village had everything we needed, the Granby Arms just across the road was fantastic, and the area as a whole was superb!

Lovely cottage in a lovely village.

The owner was always contactable if needed. Great location for beach or inland for stunning walks.

A fantastic base to explore the local area from.

Communication with the owner was excellent. We had a great stay, many thanks.

The pictures don’t do the cottage justice.

It’s very pretty and has everything we needed. Our little dog loved the enclosed yard. The scones from the Running Fox Bakery were lovely to have in front of the log burner with a glass of wine. Everything was perfect.

The cottage is warm and very clean.

The beds are comfortable and there is plenty of hot water. The owner is very welcoming and met us at the property to show us around.

We had a lovely week at Edendale.

The cottage is spotless, with everything you need, and in easy reach of lovely beaches and all the attractions we wanted to visit. Great local shop, bakery and pubs. Would definitely visit again.

The cottage was very comfy and homely and it had an ideal base to explore the lovely and beautiful Northumberland.

Terri was most helpful and provided a lovely welcome pack of food and wine.

Ideal centre for holiday- particularly dog friendly Thank you

A lovely cosy cottage with all that we needed for the week.

Great location.

Village very friendly. Terri very approachable and helpful

This is a well equipped cottage, with a lovely sunny yard to enjoy a glass of wine in or even your breakfast.

Our dogs were both made very welcome and the short walk to the dog field each day was never a chore. The pub down the road was happy to invite dogs in, so we enjoyed a couple of very nice meals there.

The little welcome extras were greatly appreciated and made us feel very welcome.

Wow!

!! What a gem of a cottage! We had an amazing stay here, such a lovely location, conveniently close to 2 pubs, local shop and delicious bakery. Perfect if you have dogs as there are lots of nice walks nearby. The Log burning stove completely made our stay so cozy and warm. Terri the host was so friendly and made us feel very welcome in the cottage. Would definitely recommend and most likely we will return.

The owner was brilliant and so kind and thoughtful.

The cottage is fantastic and the village lovely and friendly. Smashing holiday.

The owners had thought about everything to make our short stay relaxing and comfortable.

The cottage is gorgeous and lovely and warm to return to on a blustery October day. They left us a wonderful selection of coffee, bread, wine and sweets for the kids. Smashing, would highly recommend.

This cottage location was ideal for our needs.

Not far from the coast or national park. Everywhere was easy to get to. This village is great with good shops and two pubs for good food. We had two dogs and they were welcomed everywhere. The owners gave us a lovely unexpected welcome pack and made us feel at home, Although situated on a busy road it didn't detract from the whole experience. Would definitely recommend this cottage.

We were met by the owner who explained everything in detail.

We had a slight problem with the timer on the oven (my fault) and the owner came straight over to sort out for us. We were left a lovely welcome gift which was much appreciated. Great holiday home which felt more like a home rather than an holiday stay.

The holiday house was perfect.

On arrival there was a tray with coffee, butter, cheese and bread. The radio was on and lamps on throughout the house. The house was very well equipped, extremely clean and the owners couldn't have been more helpful. This is out second Sykes property we have stayed in and we would definitely look at Sykes again when booking a holiday home.

Great cottage in a lovely village.

The Running Fox is well worth a visit for breakfast or for picnic foods, but don't expect to keep your weight down. We have never been to this part of the country in summer and it was beautiful.

The cottage itself was excellent and the welcome pack exceeded anything we have previously had as were the additional cooking ‘basics’ in the store cupboard!

The location in Longframlington was also very good as central to coast or inland attractions. The bedding, towels and all amenities at the cottage were excellent too. Everything was spotlessly clean and felt like a real home from home. If there was one downside it is that the cottage is on a very busy road through the village with heavy trucks all day and most of the night. Although the cottage had additional soundproofing on the windows it was still difficult to sleep (light sleepers).

The holiday cottage was excellent and everything we wanted it to be.

The welcome was extremely warm with a roaring fire and wine, cheese and coffee amongst the welcome pack provided, all of which was very much appreciated. The standard of the furnishings and facilities was 1st class, with the cottage being very clean and well presented. The only down side was the traffic noise, particularly in the morning with heavy HGV's going past the bedroom window from 7am onwards. Having said that we would be more than happy to stay in this cottage again if ever in the area. Thanks you for a lovely holiday.

We had a fantastic time Terri was there to greet us and left lots of treats for us.

The house was spotless and very comfortable We will definitely be going again

Absolutely gorgeous cottage with walks on the doorstep loads of nice pubs to dine at and locals very friendly

Wonderful very well equipped, clean, cosy cottage.

Good location and very helpful owner who met us a on arrival.

The one photo of the cottage did not fully represent how lovely and well equipped the cottage is.

The finishing touches of fresh flowers and welcome goodies was a very nice gesture by the owner.
