“We enjoyed a super family break at this wonderful cottage which was spacious, light and airy, tastefully decorated and furnished to a high standard.”

The boot room was a welcome addition for drying off our dog after being out walking and for storing our jackets and outdoor shoes etc. This ensured the rest of the cottage was free from any clutter. Super amenities. Good location, with a short walk into Seahouses and a perfect base for exploring the local area. Would stay here again.

“Juniper Cottage was in a great location in Seahouses, it is modern and clean with a great garage/laundry area to dump boots, coats etc.”

It is a house for 6 and whilst it does have 1 en-suite and 1 other bathroom, it would be great to have a spare loo when 3 sets of couples are staying. The quality of the bedding was not the usual standard we have had with other Sykes properties.

“Really impressed with the cottage, it was very welcoming, nicely decorated and well equipped with everything needed to self-cater.”

The location is perfect in the centre of the village with a great pub next door. Can highly recommend.

“Considering it was a Christmas stay, it proved very difficult to gain confirmation from the owners, that a Christmas tree would be in the property.”

Once this had been confirmed, 2 weeks before our stay, the actual tree was basic with battery lights which did not work. We found this very disappointing. Having arrived with frozen food for Christmas, I spent 45 minutes defrosting the freezer so that we could access the freezer compartments (a photo can be provided for confirmation). Other than these observations, we found the cottage to be well equipped, comfortable and clean. Great location and we appreciated the Welcome Pack and overall had a very enjoyable stay.

“We have just arrived home from a lovely stay at juniper cottage.”

On arrival, the accommodation was warm and inviting. The cottage was clean and comfortable and well equipped. We were provided with a welcome pack, made up of thoughtful provisions. Juniper is situated in the old town, a stone's throw from the harbour and directly opposite the delightful fisherman's kitchen. There was available parking for one car on our street, which was perfect for us, the kind gentleman from the fishermans kitchen made sure our spot was free on arrival, which was great when unloading luggage. I would highly recommend a stay and would not hesitate to book again in the future.

“Lovely house in great location and very well equipped.”

Someone else seems to be using the general wheelie bin. It was overfull when we arrived and half filled very soon after the bin men emptied it! Also the arm chair near the window has a very loose front leg that we noticed when we arrived. We just didn’t use it at all.

“The washbasin in the downstairs bedroom is cracked.”

Blue upholstered chair in the main room has bent leg and could not be used. Fire Extinguishers are useless! They have not been maintained and have no pressure and would not operate in an emergency. This would be dangerous and delay the evacuation of guests who falsely believed they could fight the fire! Some chipped cups and not full sets of glasses and crockery. Carpets are stained and the stairs smelled of dogs. Overall we would consider a return if these elements were remedied

“Extremely well thought out everything you need .”

loved the welcome pack best we have had.Great boot room. Road outside awful so many pot holes. Loved swallows fish mongers. So central to walk to everywhere . Loved seahouses Craster newton by the sea and Bamburgh. Black swan 2 mins walk food excellent. Bamburgh castle hotel lovely atmosphere nice outside area overlooking harbour but food awful. Everywhere is dog friendly so nice.We had not main light in kings size bedroom downstairs reported it first day said someone would come to fix it still waiting.no disc for free parking it cost us a bomb in parking we had 2 cars very disappointed . Cleanliness of the whole place could have been better . On top of wardrobes so much dust .Kitchen cupboards still crumbs in and kitchen drawer. I don’t think cleaners have enough time . I think it needs a super clean every few weeks not just top show . I was extremely impressed with all the cleaning products you left us beautiful clean tea towels aswell. The best we have had and we have been coming to Northumberland for 29 years . Love it . I would recommend Juniper. But you do need feed back and slight improvement on above but best cottage we have stayed in for a while .

“Juniper Cottage was a great place to stay… although no views from the house, the sea and harbour were just two minutes walk away.”

Perfect for multi-generational holidays, with accommodation on two floors. Well equipped kitchen, spacious sitting room. Useful boot room especially for feeding and drying off the dog! Amazing smoked and fresh fish shop opposite, delicious kipper pate. We loved Seahouses and the coast nearby and hope to go back soon.

“A lovely cottage, good location for visiting many places on the beautiful Northumbrian coast.”

We were able to park opposite the property. Happily return to this property.

“Great cottages, beautifully set out with some lovely extras such as starter pack and books/dvds and games on offer.”

Really struggled to find faults and all instructions very clear and easy to find in the folder. Loved the boot room with the bits for the beach to use. I was was slightly worried about the parking in the run up to the break but we never had an issue parking in the street. If anything its great having the Smokehouse opposite not just for the produce but impressive amount of visitors it attracts. Juniper is a great addition to the Northumbria portfolio!! We will return!

“We had a lovely stay and could not fault Juniper cottage.”

Definitely would stay again. It had everything you could want and more. It was right in the heart of Sea-houses. Parking is on street opposite cottage next to the famous smokehouse. Please note the road is a private with a lots of potholes so take care. It really does need resurfacing. We had a dog so it was nice to have a boot room. Dogs are welcome and you could take them in all the pubs which are close by to the cottage. When you step out of the cottage down street is the sea with a lovely costal walk to the right where you can walk your dog . Turn left and you have the harbour. So many places to visit nearby highly recommend Sea-houses and Juniper cottage .

“We loved it, such a beautiful house, very clever design, loved it's history and a fabulous location.”

We've been coming to Northumberland for many years and this is the first time we've stayed in Seahouses, it won't be the last, it was great. Such a spacious house and what a bonus having the handy boot room. We would love to come again. Only a very tiny niggle but we wondered why the parking permit ran out on Thursday when we were staying until Saturday? Also we would love to have had a fish slice and tongs in the kitchen for our cooked breakfasts!! Not a big deal!!!

“Juniper cottage was beautiful; very stylishly decorated, extremely clean, perfectly located and well equipped.”

The standard of accommodation was definitely amongst the best we have experienced. So many nice touches throughout, local pictures on the walls, generous welcome pack, up to date technology. We had everything we needed and could have asked for and had a wonderful week.

“Juniper was a very light, spacious and well equipped property.”

The comfort level was high - sofas and beds - and it was easy to have a relaxing holiday there. The creation of a ‘boot room’ was a welcome feature when returning from long walks. Excellent
