"Wonderful location right by the sea and short walk to harbour restaurants and beautiful sunsets."
Many lovely and interesting places to visit in well under an hour away. Even Hadrian's wall is only an hour. With a cosy and comfortable cottage to return to. Bliss.

"Creel Cottage is really lovely and we were disappointed to have to leave at the end of the week!"
The location is excellent and we loved just watching the wild sea from the warmth and comfort of the beautiful sun room. Our dog loved the heated floor in there too! The cottage was much more spacious than we expected, spotlessly clean and very well equipped. The only negatives were the rather cold bedroom and shower room but that didn’t spoil a wonderful week away.

"Fabulous New Year break at Creel cottage."
Stayed with my husband and elderly parents. The cottage was perfect for our needs, so warm and cosy, and with every kitchen pot/pan/utensil you could need. Lots of space to relax and extremely comfortable. The option to split the larger bed into twin beds was great for my parents, just arrange ahead of arrival. The location looking out to the sea is just stunning, we could sit in the snug forever just watching the waves crashing, and enjoyed long leisurely breakfasts in there every morning. The additional downstairs bathroom with shower was a benefit especially for my parents, although it is very small. Small enclosed garden which was great with the dog, knowing it was safe to let her out. Not too far to walk to pubs/restaurants and shops, and a big Morrisons on the edge of town as well. The coast path goes past the cottages and we enjoyed walks both down towards Hauxley Nature Reserve and up to Warkworth castle and beach. We also enjoyed a day cycling along the National Cycle Route up to Alnwick, Alnmouth and beyond to Boulder. Can highly recommend the local bars and restaurants, everyone was so friendly. And we had the best weather in the country it seems. While we watched the news showing the country being battered by wind rain and floods we had dry and partly sunny days, light breezes and fairly mild weather, with the only rain being overnight……..all in all a perfect trip. We’d love to return again to this beautiful part of the country.

"Creel Cottage was perfect for our holiday needs!"
A great location, thoughtful touches regarding our dog, well equiped kitchen, nice and warm, well presented and beautifully decorated for Christmas - a lovely touch, thank you! Also, a very handy parking space too. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend to all.

"Our second visit to Creel Cottage."
Quite possibly the best all round holiday retreat we have ever experienced - exceptionally comfortable beds and sofas (a real must), very well equipped, close to local facilities yet feels “off the beaten track”. The Christmas tree was a lovely touch - thank you

"An absolutely beautiful place to stay, close proximity to the village but just far enough away to feel isolated!"
Views of the sea are amazing, especially for us during storm ‘babet’!
This is one of the nicest, comfortable cottages we’ve had in the UK, and we can’t wait to come back.

"This is the third visit for us and we absolutely love it at Creel Cottage."
The only disappointment for us is that the price for next year for the same week has gone up to over £200 more. It could now do with a fresh lick of paint as paintwork upstairs (door frames and skirting boards)need painting. Perhaps everywhere painted white would brighten it up. This does not detract from the fact that it is a fabulous place to stay. We feel so comfortable and at home there.
Thanks for the feedback re the decor - we will get on to it . Glad you love Creel Cottage . The tariff is in accordance with Sykes recommended valuation but we will check to ensure that Creel Cottage is in line with the rating of this type of property.

"This cottage is in a lovely location."
It could be perfect but it doesn’t have a functioning heating system and from reading guest comments in the visitors book it hasn’t had for many many months. Also from reading the blurb we wrongly assumed the garden could access the beach. In fact half of the outdoor space you see belongs to another cottage so this is somewhat misleading. It is however very well equipped and convenient for a variety of places.
Sorry you couldn't activate the heating system. We installed full central heating a couple of years ago, With no mains gas ,the gas supply is provided by LPG and it may be that the gas gas run out.? This is checked regularly by NCCC - we do also have electric heaters in the property as a back up.
You can access the beach the garden, however we politely ask guests to do so via the front - a few yards further simply because the garden is the residence of our neighbours who live there permanently.The access is a right of way though if you have to access it.
The photos of the back garden are what they are so a little confused about the misleading comment .
Sorry it did not meet your expectations - Cliff and Mandy

"Unfortunately although the property was as advertised the noise and inconvenience from the building work next door and opposite spoilt it."
We couldn’t even park for most of the week. We had been warned about the work but not that they would start before 8 o’clock every morning. It was not the relaxing holiday we were looking forward to. We would love to come back when it’s quiet

"A wonderfully comfortable cottage in a superb location."
HOWEVER, had we been made aware that the cottage is in the middle of a building site with early morning deliveries of materials (07:30), builders’ radios, diggers and other equipment running all day we would not have booked. According to a permanent resident two doors away this has been going on for months and months.

Direct access to the sand dunes and the beaches - just lovely. Very well equipped kitchen and choice of dining in the kitchen or the beautiful conservatory that has underfloor heating. Amble is a nice little village with lots of eateries and supermarkets. Great base for visiting Alnwick, Bambrough, Lindisfarne and our favourite place Alnmouth which has a stunning beach.
