  • "The cottage was clean and comfortable."

    There was everything you required. It was like being at home..open a drawer or cupboard and whatever you wanted was there. The furniture and decor was to a high standard with lots of little finishing touches. The gardens were ideal for our 2 dogs. They loved investigating. It was fenced off so safe. The location was peaceful, no.pubs or shops nearby but we were fine with that.. We saw lovely birds,deers and other wildlife. The owner also text us on arrival to say the cottage was ready if we wanted to go earlier. She also messaged early week to check all was OK. Overall we had a fabulous week.The cottage was in prime location to travel and visit the lovely beaches with our dogs. I would certainly recommend the cottage and would certainly go back again

  • "Beautiful cottage."

    Very comfortable and well equipped (even an air fryer and a slow cooker) In an ideal location - very quiet but close to all the amenities. We enjoyed some lovely beach and forest walks with our 2 dogs all within a 30 minute drive

  • "The cottage was beautiful with every need catered for it was maybe a little too rural as for facilities but found Northumberland Arms fabulous for food and extremely dog friendly with even a 3 course menu for them !"

    ! Could of done with a decent woodland walk from the cottage instead of the narrow road but overall excellent.

  • "What a lovely stay it was at Kizzie Cottage ."

    I wanted to write in visitors book but unfortunately did not have a pen ! We have had the most amazing time at Kizzie Cottage for our 20th Wedding Anniversary! We loved how spacious and clean, comfortable and well decorated it is. Some of features were also wonderful, including the log burner, big bathroom and king size bed. I have to say what we loved most of all, was sitting in the garden, listening to the birds! Our two cocker spaniels had so much pleasure wondering around the garden, taking in the views. We visited Swarland, Amble and Drudridge Bay which all were lovely, the drive to get to the destinations were so tranquil and picturesque! What we loved most about the stay was staying in the most comfortable cottage in such a quiet and scheduled area. What a hidden little gem ! Also thank you the Malbec wine, crisps and cookies which all went down well! We are going to re-book again and stay in the winter! Kind regards Julie Gutteridge.

    Thank you so much for this wonderful feedback Julie. We are always delighted when guests have a great time, and in particular when they appreciate the outdoor space and wildlife - that's our favourite thing too! We will look forward to welcoming you back in the winter. Property Owner

  • "The perfect place for a quiet holiday."

    The cottage was very clean and presented to a high standard with everything needed for a relaxing break - thank you. Although in a small hamlet of houses, it was generally so quiet that the loudest noise was birdsong.

    Thank you so much for your feedback. We are so glad to hear you enjoyed your stay at Kizzie Cottage and the beautiful birdsong. I was very lucky myself not that long ago when I got to see two small deer in the forest to the side of Kizzie Cottage, they were pottering around for a little while in perfect solitude - it was a beautiful sight. We hope to welcome you back in the future, thank you for visiting us. Property Owner

  • "We had a delightful stay celebrating a birthday at Kizzie Cottage!"

    Everything about the property said … “quality or luxury”. There were some lovely little touches like the welcome pack in the kitchen as well as complimentary dog treats. The log burner was awesome, it could heat the entire hamlet! The bed was one of the most comfortable we’d ever slept in, and the bath was fabulous. Our dog enjoyed sniffing around the large fully enclosed garden and the peace and tranquillity, of the woods behind was wonderful. We met both Ali and her partner during our stay, and they were so helpful and friendly. We will definitely return at some point, and would also have no hesitation in recommending Kizzie Cottage to other couples with dogs who would like to stay in tranquil Northumbrian surroundings.

    Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a great review for Kizzies Cottage. It makes such a difference to future guests considering a holiday with us to hear about the little things like the comfy bed, the "fabulous bath" and the safe fully enclosed garden for dogs, not to mention our marvelous local agent Ali and her hubby who are both so generous in helping our guests during their stay. I very much look forward to welcoming you back to Kizzies in the future. Happy Easter to you, Alison and Andrew Property Owner

  • "Lovely cottage in a perfect location for visiting Northumbria, very well stocked with everything that is required, and more for a perfect getaway."

    Just needs some attention to the grounds ie weeds and potted plants, green paths. Also many cobwebs in rafters that we attacked on a stool with the hoover. A long pole required. Anybody over 6ft in height needs to watch out for the shelf across the bedroom entrance at head height, i hit my head twice, forgetting to duck when exiting the room. Otherwise fantasticlly appointed cottage and wouldnt hesitate to recommend.

    Thank you so much for your feedback which I appreciate hugely, its great to know you found the cottage to be well appointed and are able to recommend us to others. We are blessed indeed that Kizzies Cottage abuts a most wonderful forest which is teeming with wildlife. As our guests enjoy the substantial outdoor space they report seeing woodpeckers, some spectacular and very busy blue tits, squirrels, hedgehogs, field mice and our friends, the spiders which are so important to our eco-system. Thankfully in a countryside property like this one cobwebs aren't an indicator of cleanliness, but of course we recognise despite this they aren't always welcome so we'll continue to try harder to reach up to the eaves. I'm so glad to hear you had everything you needed, and I hope to welcome you back. Property Owner

  • "The cottage was spacious and cosy and had everything you needed for a comfortable stay."

    The spacious garden was lovely to star gaze on a clear night of which there are lots due to low light pollution. Recommend visits to Warkworth town which is very pretty and also Warkworth beach which is immaculate. From here, we took in walks to Almouth Beach and Amble Harbour. Worth noting this property is part of a small complex which isn't reflected in the photos, although pretty and peaceful. Overall we had a lovely and relaxing stay. Thanks to Ali for her help during our stay with a couple of issues, much appreciated. The property was pretty simple to find from our sat nav. Sykes directions weren't clear enough.

    Thank you very much for your kind feedback we're delighted to hear you had a good time at Kizzie Cottage and we hope to welcome you back soon. Its very encouraging to hear that the few issues you had whilst at Kizzie were dealt with quickly and efficiently by our local agent who always strives to provide excellent customer service to our guests. To potential guests reading this and considering Kizzie Cottage for their holiday, please note Kizzie Cottage is not part of a complex but it is a converted farm building, one of several placed around a large and very pretty green some of which are owner occupied, others are second homes to a single family and one or two like Kizzie are holiday rentals. The properties are surrounded by an extensive wooded area. Kizzie's garden is very large, entirely enclosed and ideal for dogs. It looks out over a vast treed area teeming with wildlife.

    It is located in a secluded area but only 4 miles to the coast (Warkworth). The cottage was just as the photos showed with lots of extras provided by the owners.

  • "Kizzies cottage is a lovely place to stay."

    The enclosed back is ideal for pets. The owners are lovely friendly people to deal with. The cottage is handy to travel to such places as Bamburgh and Seahouses. Be aware that access to Bamburgh castle is up steps and to the beach through sand dunes so anyone with a walking problem (like my husband) will have difficulty. We met the agents husband Tony who was very friendly and it is nice to know that he and Ali live nearby. There was also a very nice welcome package left for us. For people also with walking difficulties it is a bit of a walk from the parking space to the cottage, but we managed. There is also a deep step down from the shower, but all in all we had a fabulous week there and wouldn't hesitate to visit again.
