"Peaceful location, easy access to beach, walks in every direction."
Loads to do in the area whether you use a car or not. Already planning return.
House was well equipped and maintained, at least for our needs. A better blind on west facing window in main bedroom would turn a 9.9 to a 10.

"We had a lovely week at Ottoline."
A well presented and brilliantly located cottage just a few minutes walk from a stunning and quiet beach. Perfect for walks with our dog and to top it off, the weather was great.
The stay could have been made even better if there had been an outside tap for cleaning off the dog after our walks; the maintenance people who cut the grass could have removed the grass cuttings so the dog (and us) didn’t walk grass cuttings into the house & if the mattress in the main bedroom had been just a little softer and the bed not so creaky!!

"This was out third visit to the cottage so we know it well and it was clean and comfortable as expected."
The issue that concerned us this year was the oil boiler which seemed to give off more fumes than previous years. Yes the weather was cold so the boiler was on quite a bit but having had experience with oil boilers it just seemed to give off more fumes than one might expect. Obviously you could smell it in the garden but also sometimes in the cottage.

"Beautiful and perfect location for our holiday we were after somewhere easy reach of the beach with a fabulous view of the coast and Ottoline definitely delivered."
Facilities in the cottage were great which we made good use of during our stay cooking meals with a view of the sea. Bed linen and towels of good quality and all clean.
A five star place for us and we'll be back again.

"This is our second time staying here, we and the dogs absolutely love the cottage and the outstanding coastal walking on your door step."
Only a couple of niggles, for some reason there was no hot water the morning we vacated, the freezer needed defrosting , it was so iced up the door would not close. Had to borrow a corkscrew from next door (important utensil especially when on holiday

"Another wonderful weeks holiday in Ottoline Cottage."
Perfect peaceful location and great for walks on the beach with our dog.
Our only recommendation is to install an outdoor tap in the back garden to rinse sandy feet and paws before coming indoors. I spent ages clearing sand and hoovering during our stay.

"Fantastic holiday in thoughtfully presented cottage in fabulous location, ideally located down the road and through the dunes to beach and on circular walk/cycle path route."
Investigation needed on the oil flue as fumes reentered the property through the shower room & bath room windows together with the back door when left open. Should we have had hot weather it would have been unbearable to have had these closed, whereas with the inclement weather we were only mildly inconvenienced.

"We really loved our stay."
The cottage had everything we needed, and the views from all of the rooms were incredible. So calming to see and hear the sea! The beds were super comfy, and the blackout blinds were much appreciated when trying to get littlies to sleep. It was in a perfect spot with a 2 minute walk to a deserted beach, and a short drive to lots of other cool places. We will definitely be back! Our only issue was the pet hair. We know the cottage is pet friendly, but when playing on the floor with the little ones, we ended up with lots of pet hair on our clothes and their toys - I think perhaps it is hard to clean out of the rugs that are down? There was also hair on the furniture. It wouldn't stop us booking again, we really loved our stay, but I do think that something needs to be done about making sure the pet hair is properly cleaned. Perhaps changing the rugs and throws to ones that can be cleaned more easily?

"Brilliant cottage, we love Embleton bay so the location is perfect for us."
Early morning dog walks with the sun rising behind Dunstanburgh castle were divine. The quality of everything in the cottage was extremely high which we appreciated. The bed was supremely comfy (we only used the master), the shower was hot and powerful, the towels were large and fluffy, the wood burning stove was large enough to heat up the room quickly. We didn’t cook much, as there are so many lovely places to eat nearby, but the kitchen was extremely well equipped and had everything you needed.. We loved Ottoline cottage and we will definitely book again, thank you.

"Ottoline Cottage is in a great location and is beautifully furnished and equipped."
It’s obvious that a lot of thought has been given to the use of space. Couldn’t fault it. It’s just a shame that it’s already booked for the equivalent week next year or we would definitely have returned.
