  • "The property was beautifully presented and warm on our arrival."

    Everything we needed was provided. The garden brilliant for the dogs, secure and well lit at night. Despite the road, pub and chippy it was quiet. Great location, only a ten minute walk to the harbour and plenty of shops and takeaways etc. Amble is very pretty and the beach at Hauxley superb for the dogs. We wouldn’t hesitate to return! Thank you Amy & William, we loved Victoria Cottage.

    Despite being next door to a pub it was very quiet. William was a most attentive and generous host.

    The owner texted me to let us know that we could check in early if we wanted to which was a very nice gesture. Great location and a secure garden which was wonderful for our dogs.

    We absolutely loved it . Everything was perfect and the garden was perfect. Our 2 cockapoos loved exploring it all. We enjoyed exploring the area and went to Alnwick Castle, Cragside and Seahouses. Had never been to Northumberland before and we loved it all. The scenery and beaches were superb. We had a snashing holiday and the owners William and Amy were super too . So helpful and friendly. Will definitely go there again.

    Clean and tidy, with everything you need for a holiday stay. Private parking is available with the property, it’s extremely tight, this has never been an issue for us (this was our second stay, with another booked for October) as there is a car park a stones throw away behind the Blue Bell public house, or plenty of parking on the road.

    Thank you for your lovely feedback. It's always good to get return bookings as it speaks volumes for us Property Owner

  • "A lovely cottage ideally placed within Amble for ease of access to everything we wanted."

    Well equipped, with all needed for a stay away from home, with the added bonus of a nice starter pack to get you going upon arrival. The secure back garden was ideal for letting the dogs out for a late night call of nature, knowing they where safe and secure. Although I never mastered the private parking, I think our car was probably a little too big, we simply parked in the small nearby car park behind the pub which is a minutes walk away. We love Amble, and would happily stay in Victoria Cottage again.

    In. it is immaculate, the tea coffee etc was welcoming, the owners lovely. I was worried when I found it was next to a pub and on the main road, I like my sleep, but I need not worry as there was little to no noise. I feel a three star is very unjust, it deserves more at least 4 or 4 +. It really was home from home. The parking is at the back down a narrow lane but that was never an issue and at least I had a parking space , which we have been caught out with before, one time I was a half mile walk from my car. Can not wait to stay there again.

    The leisure access was a great bonus. The only issue I think should be made clearer is that the property is next to a pub. There was some slight noise disturbance on the friday/ Saturday but nothing that stopped us sleeping and not until late. Other than that the property met all our needs and it was lovely to be able to walk to restaurants, shops and the coast easily.

  • "A deceptively large cottage, comfortable and spacious; allowing the entire family to enjoy a relaxing holiday without being on top of each other."

    Victoria Cottage was spotlessly clean and sumptuously furnished, making it the perfect base from which to explore the beauty and wonder of Northumberland. The owners were available via phone for anything we needed or to answer questions, and welcomed us into the home with a care package that included fresh flowers, tea, coffee, milk, bread and butter. What more could you ask. The off-road parking is tight but doable, even in our SUV. Quick tip: reversing up the drive having deposited the passengers at the end does make things easier. When we visit the area again, we'd definitely seek another stay in Victoria Cottage; not sure you could do better.

About the location

AMBLE

Warkworth 1 mile; Alnmouth 4 miles.

The bustling little seaport of Amble is situated at the mouth of the River Coquet and is an ideal place for exploring Northumberland. Historically a centre for boatbuilding, Amble offers a marina, a harbour, sandy beaches and coastal walks to the bird sanctuary at Hauxley and country park at Druridge Bay. Large fishing boats moor along the harbour wall and land a variety of fish, prawns, crabs and lobsters. There is a fish centre on the side of the harbour that is now primarily a shell fish hatchery to re-stock levels of lobster and other shell fish, this sells local fish and is open to the public. A mile south of Amble is Coquet Island, an RSPB reserve with a large population of terns, puffins and eider ducks and boat trips around the island can be arranged. The pretty coastal villages of Alnmouth and Craster and numerous superb beaches are only a short drive away, whilst picturesque Warkworth with its castle, charming Alnwick with its castle and award-winning gardens, and the National Trust’s Wallington Hall and Cragside are all within easy reach.
