  • "A wonderful and very nicely decorated cottage in relaxing tones and natural wood."

    The cottage was spotless and very well equipped with everything you could need. Heating was good making Cheshill Cottage a very cosy and relaxing get away in a most attractive and vibrant coastal gem.

    Thank you very much for your lovely feedback. I will pass your comments on to Jill who does the changeovers for us and keeps everything on track. Alnmouth is a beautiful place to relax. Property Owner

  • "Great location in main street with outside seating at the back."

    We enjoyed our stay there as it was very cosy. We did have to angle the settees for better TV viewing but had a bonus of a DVD player and a good selection of DVDs. I think the carpets will need cleaning before long but apart from that we all said we would stay there again.

  • "This is a lovely cottage nestled in the middle of picturesque Alnmouth village, ideally located to take full advantage of the myriad activities and facilities that are on your doorstep."

    We stayed with two young boys, who loved the beach toys and games. The cottage itself does feel like it needs a bit of TLC. Some of the bedding is worn, and other areas could do with a bit of attention, eg the back yard needs to be swept. Those travelling with small children should note that the travel cot is pretty basic (and also small - our boy is 16 months and he was very cosy) and there is no high chair.

  • "This is a lovely cottage in a fantastic location!"

    It is a minutes walk to both the beach, shops and restaurants. The cottage itself is great. We had a few niggely issues such as it’s cold downstairs, despite the underfloor heating, pack a jumper. They had cute chairs for toddlers, but if your little one never sits still (like ours) you will need a high chair or play pen. The downstairs floor is hard, the dining chairs are heavy and the TV has a brick surround. Just so you have peace of mind, can relax and have a holiday yourself. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend this cottage!

    Thank you very much for your lovely comments. I hope you enjoyed Alnmouth - beach is brilliant for young children. Thank you for the feedback on the heating - it is quite difficult to get the underfloor heating right in such an old property. We have fitted new controllers this year so it is very helpful to hear how people are getting on with it. Best wishes, Joy Property Owner

  • "We had a lovely dog chew left in the made childrens bed upon arrival - i can supply a photo!"

    Some corners in the living room could do with more TLC in terms of cleaning spider webs, dust, etc. Some wear of carpets and wall bumps/scrapes are quite pronounced (we have stayed here numerous times over the last few years so i know the property very well. Front door showing wear/leakingWe also had the delight of the neighbours patio beign constructed and noise and dust from this (one washing hung out was moved indoors). Fridge wasnt overly cool, not many glasses for use, or large cups/mugs. Expensive listing compared to recent times - Sykes takeover of NCCC?!

    Dear Mr Renton. I am sorry to see that there were a number of problems with the cottage during your recent stay. I hope that they did not detract too much from your holiday overall I will raise the issue of the dog toy with Sykes - it must have been very unpleasant to find - we only take dogs in the basis that they remain downstairs, and this should also have been picked up in cleaning - so again I apologise for this. I have asked our housekeeper to put out some extra glasses etc - we keep spares as there are losses through the season, so if you were to stay again you are very welcome to contact us to request more of anything if you are finding shortages, and if you feel that the cleanliness is not what you would expect when you arrive. I have also passed on your comments regarding the cleaning of corners. We try to address maintenance issues over the winter and the fridge and carpets are on my list of items to replace so we are hoping to be able to do this at the end of the season. I hope you were warned of the work being carried out next door prior to your visit - unfortunately it was outside of our control and it has obviously been disruptive for several guests this year but thankfully it has now been completed. Again I apologise if this marred your holiday. I will take on board you comment on pricing - the new system is very complicated so I will be checking at the end of the season to to see if it is working for us and our guests. I hope this experience has not deterred you from staying in Alnmouth in the future. Best wishes, Joy Property Owner

  • "The property would have been perfect but for: 1."

    Work at No 5 made it impossible to enjoy the sunshine in the patio 2. The waste bin was full when we arrived. Unable to take the bin behind No 5 to join the other bins. We were recommended to take the bin out to the lane at the back. I cut two huge 1/2 inch thick briers which and one of the workmen very kindly took the bin out for us. The bin was not collected on Thursday. Contacted Jill on one of your supplied numbers and she arranged for the owner to contact the council. A special uplift was made - thank you Jill. 3. We met the cleaning team as we were leaving at 10am on Friday. Jill took photographs of the mess in the back. 4. The in house EE wifi varied from weak to ok. We have been regular visitors to Alnmouth over the last 30 years. This experience will not put us off the town which is wonderful but we will be asking for assurances that the above problems are not waiting for us when we ARRIVE NEXT TIME.

  • "Lovely cottage in a great location."

    The owner was very responsive and helpful when we had a minor issue and it was sorted out straight away. Everything was clean, comfortable and well equipped. It was great to find games and beach toys provided. Our 4 year old had a fabulous time and so did we!

    General cleaning could be improved lots of dust not immediately spotted but round the television and microwave lots of dust, kitchen bin had spills down the front, otherwise a lovely property and would return.

    Mattress on bottom bunk could do with replacing or at least a mattress topper, as you can feel the springs & it’s rather uncomfortable! Otherwise very comfortable cottage and had everything we needed

The property

Settled into the picturesque seaside town of Alnmouth, Cheshill Cottage is an ideal family getaway to Northumberland.

Be welcomed into a traditional cottage which has been tastefully furnished to complement its heritage, beginning with the lovely sitting/dining area where a green feature wall houses a bare brick fireplace, now home to a TV, so you can catch up on your favourite shows as you recline in the green sofas, and here you will also find a table and chairs for dining.

A second dining space can be found in the kitchen, with tiled flooring stretches throughout and complementing wooden cabinets filled with ample amenities to cater to your culinary needs.

The property has a bathroom, so enjoy a soak amongst the bubbles, then cosy down for the night in one of the three bedrooms, including a double with storage, a bunk room and a single.

Outside, morning coffee can be had in the courtyard as you enjoy the fresh sea air.

Alnmouth is a seaside town with riverside walks, an estuary full of wildlife and a beautiful sandy beach, where you can picnic and try out watersports.

With a golf course and many eateries, a day can be spent exploring the town centre, trying out local produce and learning more about the local history and heritage and for lovers of long scenic walks, you can join the England Coast Path here, which leads from Amble to Bamburgh.

Further from the property, you will find the historic town of Warkworth, where a wonderful castle and a sandy beach can be found, and Alnwick, home to the well-known Alnwick Castle, as well as many quaint shops, eateries and a golf course.
