Steve
July 2024

“This property was very clean, there wasn't a spot of dirt or a cobweb anywhere.”

Every room smelled fresh and clean upon arrival. The bedding smelled lovely and clean throughout our stay. The welcome pack was great, even including dog treats for our dog. We enjoyed a very peaceful holiday, very quiet at night and no noise. We had a comfortable and peaceful stay and enjoyed sitting in the outside decking which was ideal for our dog as it was an enclosed area.

Linda July 2024

“We had a lovely holiday staying at 4 The Oaks.”

It was comfortable, welcoming and everything we needed had been thought about. Claire was very approachable and at the end of the phone if we had any questions. Percy Woods site was quiet even in July when we went, lovely woodland walks for the dog and everyone was friendly. It was the perfect location for exploring the coast and castles. We loved everything about the holiday and will be returning.

- Linda, July 2024

Gavin August 2023

“This was my first short stay in UK holiday park.”

4 the oaks was very comfortable and surprised by size / level of detail (like home from home). My family enjoyed the short 3 night stay in Northumberland and enjoyed walking Swadland / further a field (Bamburgh / Alnwick / Seahorses). 4 the oaks is very accessible off the A1 and great location to sight see the stunning locations Northumberland has to offer. Will certainly book up again with sykecottages in future (great service/ clear instructions / frequent updates)..........great job and thoroughly recommended. All the best Gavin

- Gavin, August 2023

Edwin May 2023

“4 The Oakes proved to be an excellent property and center for our exploration of Northumberland.”

Being close to the A1 was an added convenience. The facilities provided were 'top notch', with the large TV & Netflix in particular appreciated and using the on site golf course was also free of charge. As ever there were a couple of negatives: - We were lucky with the sun shining but it made eating and TV viewing difficult without any curtains to moderate it. A very minor point. - The site is quiet and peaceful but large and the on-site bar / shop is a long hike for the more mature.

- Edwin, May 2023

Thank you so much for staying with us and taking the time to provide valuable feedback. We will most certainly look into the matter re curtains. Unfortunately the bar and shop are a 10 min walk away, we are hoping in the future that these facilities are going to move behind reception with the plans the park are looking at. We hope to see you again Thanks again for staying at 4 the Oaks Property Owner

“What an amazing place, peaceful relaxing even with two kids in tow.”

Great location for Alnwick, Belsay Hall, Morpeth, we even took the kids to diggerland in Durham. We only had one issue when we arrived but it was very quickly sorted by the lovely owners. If you love gold like we do the free use of the course was a great bonus

Upon arrival, pull up into one of the two off-road spaces, before taking in your tranquil environment. Make your way up the steps to find a timber-clad, open-plan living space featuring all you need to unwind, as well as appliances fit for a self-catering stay. Grab a seat on one of the plush seating options in front of the Smart TV and enjoy your favourite movie together or your favourite series on Netflix; switch on the electric fire to add to the warm ambiance. When you're ready to prepare a mouthwatering meal, make your way over to the kitchen, where wooden cabinetry features a great range of appliances, including a large fridge/freezer. These meals can be enjoyed at the dining table or out on your private decking; wherever you choose to eat and enjoy your complimentary bottle of fizz along and make a toast to this charming getaway! When sleep calls, move through the property to find three inviting bedrooms, two of which are twins that share access to a well-appointed bathroom, and the other comprising a king-size with ample storage and an en-suite shower room. Take a leisurely stroll through the tranquil grounds of Percy Wood Golf & Country Park to get a better sense of your surroundings; let the kids make the most of the adventure playground, go wildlife-watching in the woodland, or try your hand at putting at the on-site golf course! Take a break from cooking by stopping at Nelson’s at the Park for a great home-cooked dinner served with a well-deserved pint or travel a little further afield to Felton to find more of your amenities resting in one location, such as The Northumberland Arms pub, where you can enjoy a hearty meal and a convenience store, where you can pick up self-catering essentials. Northumberland Country Zoo is close by, with a variety of creatures eager to meet you. Nearby, discover the stunning terrain of Northumberland National Park, which is home to the longest section of Hadrian's Wall and offers a variety of walking, biking, and hiking trails across sandstone hills, beautiful moorland, and enchanting forests. For a fun day on the coast, be sure to venture to Amble, where the fascinating puffin cruises, an idyllic marina and sandy beaches can be found. Be sure venture to Bamburgh and Alnwick for outings packed with history, thanks to both of their castles and Bamburgh's access to the Farne Islands; alternatively, pay Newcastle a visit for a day out in a vibrant city. A serene base with so much to see and do nearby, 4 The Oaks is a brilliant choice for a Northumbrian escape.
