“A cosy wee neuk for exploring the east borders region.”

Close to many well known ancient sites and of course the isle. Walking the Pilgrim Way over the sand barefoot is highly recommended.

“A lovely cozy space with plenty of room for two.”

Great hosts. Perfect location for North Northumberland, the borders & the east coast of Scotland.My favourite areas.Very close to the A1 but didn't affect my sleep or stay.Not that noticeable at all.Stair case to mezanine level wouldn't suit everybody but wasn't a problem for myself.Very good price for our 4 night stay,stunning weather & a great base to enjoy this wonderful part of the world from.Will definitely stay there again.

Property was clean and tidy and had everything that we needed, but could not recommend to everybody due to the spiral staircase up to the mezannine bedroom which could be a problem to some people
Mr Ward June 2019

“Met by Stephen Fidler on arrival, very welcoming and likable.”

The stay at Aidan apartment was very nice, a good base and a stones throw from Holy Island. The facilities and cleanliness was very good. The only downside is its a shame its not a 100 yards further away from main road ( A1 ).
Mrs Donald March 2019

“We had a nice weekend Break small Apartment but very comfortable the owner Mr fidler was there to meet you on arrival showed you around explained were to eat out and nearest supermarket was very nice man not intrusive left you to get on with it yes we would go back in the future nice to visit holy Ireland and other places .”

Sykes cottages do warn you there is a steep spiral staircase also thank-you Sykes cottages .
Mrs Bollands November 2018

“Great place to stay.”

Close to holy island and Berwick centre. Cosy little place and situated next to a great pub with nice staff. Only thing to say is that Aidan cottage I think has the wrong photos attached and maybe for the cottage next door. Similar but slightly different although still enjoyable and would recommend.

“Lovely”

Lovely little cottage, ideally situated. There is a little road noise from the A1 but not enough to spoil your peace and quiet. Cottage has everything you need, is clean and cosy. The spiral stairs are quirky but not for the infirm. Will definitely be back!
