  • "Lovely stay in a lovely location."

    Clean and welcoming pack, wine for adults, with doggy treats and sweets for kids. The community rooms were good for playing board games and ping pong. Would have spent more time teaching the kids pool but no balls

  • "Just a short break, but this was a lovely cottage in a beautiful location."

    Owners had thoughtfully left a bottle of wine for us and treats for our dog. The hand written welcome card was a really nice touch and appreciated. The beds were very comfortable and we all slept well. Location is handy for touring with Bamburgh, Alnwick and Berwick within easy reach. Fantastic beaches which go on forever and beautiful dark skies. Everything about the cottage was first rate and I would highly recommend it.

    Very spacious. I reported a leak under the kitchen sink and it was dealt with very promptly. Good location and reasonably priced for the quality of accommodation.

  • "What a lovely holiday base!"

    The cottage was clean and comfortable, the site was well maintained and the staff friendly. There is a games room on site, that isn't advertised on the listing but, is in the Info booklet within the cottage. This was a fabulous addition for us and the children. So many board games ,pool table, snooker, table tennis and table football. With all there is to do in the local area and the games room it was perfect. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely return.
