“Beautiful cottage comfy bed the first time my husband hasn’t had a bad back on holiday.”

Fantastic bathroom and shower. Everything you need is provided the gift bag of goodies was highly appreciated. Only wish would be if the garden was gated so our doggy could go in the garden without her lead . Best cottage we have ever stayed in. Hoping to return again . Also found a lovely pub in Belford The Salmon lovely staff and delicious food.

“We enjoyed our stay at The Arches.”

It was very clean and the welcome pack was appreciated. On a very small note, there was no visitors book - which always makes interesting reading, and it felt that things hadn’t been updated since Covid restrictions. Other than that we had a good stay. Thank you.

“Yes. Liked the cottage & location for the isolation.”

Pity not an enclosed garden as dog didn’t get any freedom. Thought the bathroom was good but a pity it was very short on drying space for towels. Needed a bigger towel rail. Think bathroom potentially an issue for older visitors as no rail to hold on to. Thought the settee & Room carpet a bit tired. Whilst I slept ok daughter thought middle bed not great. Cut my hand drying kitchen spoon. Dodgy handle with metal sticking out! Told Sykes about leak from valley gutter but no acknowledgement. Probably needs looking at - might just be leaf / debris blocking it but had a steady leak coming into bathroom.

“The property was very clean, warm, quiet, spacious and inviting.”

The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, cutlery etc, which is often not the case. The inclusion of things like tinfoil, washup liquid, dishwasher tablets, cling film etc were very helpful and was much appreciated, made a big difference for self-caterers and avoids having to get those basics in. Very well situated for exploring the area and also for walks from the door.

“We loved this property.”

It's very well situated for exploring this wonderful coast. Close to Bamburgh and several good restaurants. The property was warm and welcoming and very well equipped. Two very good sized double bedrooms with plenty of storage and a single room with equally good storage. Just a stones throw away was the wonderful Budle Bay - a bird watchers delight. Will definitely like to vist again.

About the location

BAMBURGH

Seahouses 3.5 miles; Beadnell 5.1 miles; Alnwick 16.9 miles.

The village’s sweeping sandy beaches and dramatic fortress - Bamburgh Castle - make Bamburgh one of Northumberland’s major visitor attractions. The castle can be seen for miles and dominates this part of the county’s coastline. Today it remains home to the family of the great Victorian industrialist Lord Armstrong, and is open to the public on a daily basis. Although overshadowed by the great castle, Bamburgh village is picturesque with neat grey stone cottages facing a manicured village green. There are excellent pubs, hotels with restaurants and a small selection of village shops. There are golf courses in Bamburgh and nearby Seahouses, and within easy reach are more wide sandy beaches, lovely fishing villages, stunning castles and coastal islands to explore along the dramatic Heritage Coast. There are numerous other attractions also a short drive away, including the famous Alnwick Castle and Gardens and the historic walled border town, Berwick-upon-Tweed. A superb base for exploring Northumberland.

Two bags of logs provided and the guests are expected to replace.
