Lovely cottage, really enjoyed the sun room only thing to feed back was the quality of the pillows, felt really cheap and hard

- Clare, September 2023

Thanks for the feedback and I’m sorry you didn’t find the pillows comfortable They are all new and ‘hotel quality’ and sadly not cheap but I will take a look. To be fair I’ve never slept on them so appreciate your feedback Property Owner
Mrs September 2023

“Was a lovely place to stay.”

The views from the sunroom were amazing. A good place to stay to access the facilities in Amble. Plenty of great places to eat. Also a good base to explore Northumberland. We would definitely stay again.

I know the cleaners have a lot to do but I ended up cleaning out the cutlery drawers and putting everything through the dishwasher as full of crumbs, the grill was left dirty and when I went to clean the toilets accidentally knocked over the brush holder and it was full of brown water

- Hazel, September 2023

I’m very sorry to hear your feedback on the cleaning. You should not have to be doing that on your holiday. The cleaning is normally to an exceptionally high standard and so I do not know what has happened here. I will speak to the cleaners and make sure they are checking these things Thanks for your feedback. Please accept our apologies The owners Property Owner

“The property was fabulous with everything you could want and it was very clean.”

It's in a fabulous position. I only gave NC&C 5 as they didn't answer my phone calls or reply to my email.

- Steve, August 2023
Rachel August 2023

“Such a wonderful property well equipped.”

The whole family (including the dogs) were fully relaxed. We planned on going out some evenings but the sunset views were too beautiful to miss we will definitely be booking again.

- Rachel, August 2023

Thanks so much for your feedback it’s much appreciated. Glad you had a lovely time. Look forward to welcoming you back in the future Property Owner
Maureen July 2023

“We’ve been visiting the property for a few years and are impressed with the refurbishment carried out by the new owners.”

Small niggles such as lack of seating on the decking could be rectified quite easily but it was an issue for us when all 7 wished to socialise and enjoy the view from the rear garden. However, all in all, a lovely, comfortable, clean and well equipped house with spectacular views.

- Maureen, July 2023

Thanks for your feedback and glad you liked the refurbishment. Apologies that there was not enough outside seating. We had ordered 2 new benches but only one has been delivered and we are still awaiting the second. The old ones had rotted! I’m now pleased to report that the 2 new benches are in situ ! Property Owner
Jenny July 2023

“We absolutely love this cottage.”

Came in 2021 and can see the improvements in carpets, sofas and beds. Great location. Wonderful sun room and views from the garden. Saw two dolphins from the top bench in the garden. A very special place. Thank you and we'll be back.

- Jenny, July 2023

Thank you for your feedback it’s much appreciated. Look forward to welcoming you back in the future Property Owner
Stephen July 2023

“In general an excellent holiday property with everything needed for our party of seven.”

Unfortunately we had issues with the downstairs bathroom drainage even though the guidance on useage was adhered to. This did not get resolved before the end of our stay leaving the second bathroom unusable. Overall a lovely property and superb location ! Would definitely stay again.

- Stephen, July 2023

Thank you for your feedback and I can only apologise about the issues with the toilet. Unfortunately the previous guests didn’t follow the guidelines and had been flushing nappies down the toilet which blocked the drain Property Owner

Barbara June 2023

“This was our 2nd visit to this cottage.”

Although we enjoyed the first visit in February, since the refurbishment with all new furnishings, carpets etc it is a truly wonderful , comfortable and really special place to stay. The location is fabulous within a 2 min walk from a beach where you can collect sea glass, only 10 min walk into Amble and you can just stay in and enjoy the changing seascape in the sun room. Everything provided was new , the towels were a bonus and a great size too. New benches were also delivered while we were there adding even more comfort to the outdoor deck. 5 stars given and well deserved for this property. Will have to save up to return next year.

- Barbara, June 2023

Thank you so much for your feedback. We are delighted you enjoyed your stay. We have finally got the cottage as we would have wanted it and are now proud owners of somewhere that we ourselves would be delighted to stay Property Owner
Richard May 2023

“We stayed last year but since the upgrade this is now the best cottage ever, and we have stayed in lots over the past ten years.”

The view is totally fantastic for watching the sea and the upgrade in the house itself makes it a five star cottage.

- Richard, May 2023
Christopher April 2023

“A well equipped and comfortable house in a great position, with lovely sea views.”

Very good for dogs, with coastal walks from the house, an Amble centre a pleasant walk away. We are highly likely to book again.

- Christopher, April 2023
Steve March 2023

“The house was in a fantastic location and could be a really lovely property, but it was very tried and could do with a proper deep clean - there was cobwebs and dust everywhere.”

Also there was building work taking place directly opposite the house and we feel it would have been considerate to give guests the heads up on this - particularly as it was noisy at times and the builders would randomly appear on the property using the outside water tap etc.

- Steve, March 2023

Thanks for the feedback. You will be pleased to know that the house has now had a full upgrade at our first opportunity given the bookings. The house is now lovely and the building work that you should have been made aware of over the road is now completed. Hope you will revisit and see for yourself the improvements Property Owner

About the location

AMBLE

Warkworth 1 mile; Alnmouth 4 miles.

The bustling little seaport of Amble is situated at the mouth of the River Coquet and is an ideal place for exploring Northumberland. Historically a centre for boatbuilding, Amble offers a marina, a harbour, sandy beaches and coastal walks to the bird sanctuary at Hauxley and country park at Druridge Bay. Large fishing boats moor along the harbour wall and land a variety of fish, prawns, crabs and lobsters. There is a fish centre on the side of the harbour that is now primarily a shell fish hatchery to re-stock levels of lobster and other shell fish, this sells local fish and is open to the public. A mile south of Amble is Coquet Island, an RSPB reserve with a large population of terns, puffins and eider ducks and boat trips around the island can be arranged. The pretty coastal villages of Alnmouth and Craster and numerous superb beaches are only a short drive away, whilst picturesque Warkworth with its castle, charming Alnwick with its castle and award-winning gardens, and the National Trust’s Wallington Hall and Cragside are all within easy reach.

Note: Please inform us if you wish the travel cot be made available. Fuel is not provided for the log burner.
