“Everything you would require for a stay at this lovely property was on hand.”

Lovely bonus to have Netflix to watch after walking along the nearby beach all day. Definitely recommend especially for dog owners as very secure and enclosed.

Theresa September 2023

“Really enjoyed our stay at the cottage.”

spotlessly clean especially as they welcome dogs. Great location close to amenities and the beach. Miss a washing machine but there is a laundry nearby if required. Happily stay there again with 2 hyper collies.

Amanda June 2023

“Simply but comfortably and attractivley furnised, well stocked kitchen with utensills.”

Tea bags, milk and biscuits provided on arrival. Comfy beds and sofas. Owner Louise came and said hello and checked all was okay. Gets the sun most of the day untill 6pm in the back and nice to sit out on the balcony also. You can park outside the cottage on the road or on the slope right by the house, we did get the car in the garage but very narrow and is an access route, possible to drive though into the yard. Seahouses itself is about a 10 min walk on the pavement and is very picturesque. Was actually nicer to be just outside the main area. Very enjoyable stay and would deffinitley go back

- Amanda, June 2023

Amanda thank you so much for your feedback. It’s very much appreciated. Especially for pointing out how easy the parking is. Kind regards Louise Property Owner
Ian May 2023

“Had a marvellous stay.”

Very friendly and helpful owner. Ideal for our pets too. Slept really well and would stay here again. Very clean and comfortable A 10 minute walk into Seahouses. Great dog friendly pubs close by. Doesn’t have a washing machine so take enough clothes with you.

- Ian, May 2023
Maria April 2023

“Lovely cosy cottage, well located.”

Clean had everything you need. There are a few improvements/maintenance that are needed: the shower hose leeks quite a bit, the front door is stiff to open and it's the first time I've stayed in a house without a washing machine. None of these took anything away from our Lovely stay. I would recommend Hastings dairy and would stay again.

- Maria, April 2023
Vivienne March 2023

“Lovely accommodation, lovely owner.”

Really enjoyed our stay.. The one thing that would stop me returning was that there was no washing machine. Apart from that could not fault it

- Vivienne, March 2023
Susan March 2023

“Could not fault the cleanliness.”

Everywhere was immaculately clean. Unfortunately the cottage on arrival (4pm) was very cold, we had driven through a few flurries of snow and low temperatures so expected heating to be on. Although 3 shelves in master bedroom, a chest of drawers would have would have been better suited. Lack of storage for food provisions. Cottage states for 4 people but I feel it would seem overcrowded for 4 adults, thankfully just two of us. Balcony was great for the night skies. Seahouses is central for visiting beaches and villages along the coastal route....love this area.

- Susan, March 2023
Deborah October 2022

“Hastings Dairy is a lovely cottage - very clean & comfortable.”

The property has been refurbished to a high standard, and the owners have put a lot of thought into providing a relaxing place to stay. We really enjoyed our break here.

- Deborah, October 2022

Timothy May 2022

“Fantastic property about 15 minute walk from the centre / beach.”

The property had everything we needed as a family of four with a decent size freezer, cooker etc Was very clean and had alarm clocks etc.

- Timothy, May 2022
Christine May 2022

“We absolutely loved this cottage,very clean and warm everything you needed.”

Plus having two dogs it had everything you needed to keep it clean I was extremely impressed with the information pack about facilities and how to use them plus lots of information about the area. In my opinion if you don’t need to contact the owners then it’s a perfect holiday accommodation. We will be recommending it to family and friends

- Christine, May 2022
Patricia May 2022

“Hasting Dairy was spotless, warm, comfortable and tastefully decorated.”

, being modern, but in keeping with the house and the area. Patio and balcony caught the sun all day. Milk in the fridge and biscuits for a welcome cup of tea when we arrived. Perfectly situated for exploring the whole area. A bus stop right outside the door provided a prompt and regular service from Berwick to Alnwick stopping at all the coastal villages in between. Thank-you. We hope to stay again as there are so many things we still want to do in the area.

- Patricia, May 2022
Linda April 2022

“Really enjoyed our stay.”

The cottage was beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean and well equipped.

- Linda, April 2022
Rosalind April 2022

“A delightful cottage, well maintained, clean and enjoyable stay.”

- Rosalind, April 2022
Robert April 2022

“The kitchen is very good and the local Co-Op well stocked.”

Portly customers might struggle to sit round the table. We knew there wasn’t a washing machine and came prepared, but unlike most Youth Hotels there’s no drying room. Stronger light bulbs on the landing and a re-located ‘doggy gate’ would improve safety (we 4 were between 59 & 86). Different coloured towels would be better. More supportive mattresses would have helped us ancient mortals. The viability of the property may change once the proposed yellow line parking is implemented as there isn’t enough paid parking half a mile away in Seahouses; we gather that zealous traffic wardens penalise pavement parking outside the cottage and only very small vehicles can be parked directly in front, although with significant skill we managed to park a Mini Cooper in the rear yard through the garage (which is off-bounds)

- Robert, April 2022
Liz February 2022

“This is a lovely well equipped warm cottage which has clearly been looked after.”

It is in a good location. I really have no complaints at all .. the owner was very helpful and easy to contact about a minor query.

- Liz, February 2022
Diane January 2022

“Had a wonderful stay in this very dog friendly cottage with our 2 small dogs.”

Bed was comfy and facilities were spot on. Lovely and warm, plenty of hot water. Back yard handy for first and last doggy tiddles. Nice pleasant walk for beach or shop, harbour and pub etc. Dog friendly pubs, plenty of take-aways. Had Indian from Spices, wasn’t very spicy, the other one is fantastic. Best chippy is Lewis’s. Ideal place to visit Holy Island, Bamburgh and Beadnell close by and other places further away. Hostess Louise keeps in touch, very friendly. Would definitely return.

- Diane, January 2022
John January 2022

“This cottage has the potential to be great, and is absolutely in a brilliant location.”

A few things: 1. The shower head is completely disgusting and needs sorting out immediately. The owner cannot claim ignorance of this as it is mentioned in the review book in the cottage. 2. Multiple blown light bulbs...a pet hate of mine...but really simple to check for. 3. You really need a washing machine... Otherwise, the communications from the owner were great, and we had a nice time. Sort the shower out...a new head costs about £5 from Lidl!

- Tracey, December 2021
Susan December 2021

“In actual fact, we were unable to stay in Hastings Dairy as there was a problem with the boiler.”

We were moved to another property, a bigger property and had a lovely week. Both cottages were absolutely lovely, real homes away from home. We would stay in either again in a heartbeat.

- Roy, August 2021
Karen July 2021

“The information, customer service and communication from booking until after our stay was exceptional.”

Hastings dairy was fantastic - so clean throughout and amazing facilities. The owners had thought of everything and the accommodation was well-equipped with lots of extra comforts. One of the nicest holiday rentals we have had the pleasure of staying in. Fabulous location too - a bus stop only a few metres away and a short walk into seahouses. We hope to return very soon - thank you!

- Karen, July 2021
Richard July 2021

Lots of nice walks & lovely area to explore.

Was our second visit to this property though its in good area we were disappointed with the cooking facilities which were exactly the same as the first time which were not up to standard,also the shower head needed replacing or cleaning ,we arrived at time stated in our booking to be greeted by owner who was still cleaning and was told it was 4pm entry not 3pm

Ellen August 2020

“Should highlight that there is shared access to the rear courtyard as we were unaware of this until we got to the let.”

Felt uncomfortable on occasion due to the fact. Parking sometimes difficult outside property and big vehicles use the road, wing mirror damaged even though tucked in and road side of car scratched. Property itself clean and comfortable.

- Ellen, August 2020
Anke August 2020

“Lovely cottage and very helpful owner.”

Great location, near a fabulous beach and also shops/restaurants nearby. The cottage was clean and we could still smell bleach, so we felt all steps were taken to make it Covid safe. We had a great time, especially our dog! Would definitely recommend.
