“The cottage was superb, best that we have stayed in for a long while.”
It was immaculately clean, spacious, well equipped and very comfortable. The owners obviously have given a lot of thought to the needs of their guests, with small details like tiny torches at the bedside, folding chairs for picnics available, boxes of tissues in each room and cooking basics such as oil, salt, vinegar, stock cubes, tea, coffee, sugar, milk etc in the kitchen. There was also a welcome hamper with a bottle of wine, biscuits, bread, spread and eggs. Very nice touch. There were fresh flowers in two rooms as well. The conservatory was lovely and we used that more than the sitting room as it had lovely views of the garden, which was well kept and colourful, complete with fairy lights at night. Despite the road we weren’t troubled by noise and were able drive onto the second drive and reposition a large estate car so that we could drive out forwards. It’s very convenient for the castle and for shops, ages, pubs and restaurants in Warkworth town,as well as the wonderful Northumbrian beaches. All in all a splendid holiday cottage.
