“Charming and well presented cottage”

“2 minor items:- ...”

2 minor items:- 1. The cottage is 70 yards past the Tankerville Arms, not 300 yards given in your directions. 2. We were unable to activate the TV, didn't bother us personally but would help if there were instructions ( or a 4 year old child probably)

“Sunflower Cottage is first class ...”

Sunflower Cottage is first class accommodation, plenty of room, comfortable, cosy and well equipped. The location is well placed for visiting all places of interest and near to Alnwick for food shopping. The property was very clean and the garden pretty and well cared for. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

“The cottage was immaculate and we ...”

The cottage was immaculate and we felt welcome to use the facilities as our own. We had two young children and an infant and felt comfortable letting them play and explore. The location was perfect for exploring around Northumbria and we would love to return.

“Lovely property in a very quiet and ...”

Lovely property in a very quiet and picturesque village but relatively close to the main amenities in Alnwick. Good access to A1 so easy to get to Northumberland's tourist attractions. Excellent holiday.

“The cottage was fabulous! Well ...”

The cottage was fabulous! Well equipped and comfortable; we loved the log burners and hot water on tap at all times. The cottage had high quality furnishings and décor, spacious rooms with character and charm. It is a terrific location with a great pub/restaurant about two minutes walk from the property. Highly recommended.

“Superb!!”

This delightful cottage, (it was an old cottage not a modern building calling itself a cottage), was certainly a revelation. If all the properties we have stayed in were like this I would be overjoyed! Spotlessly clean and tastefully decorated this well equiped cottage has everything, even nice big fluffy towels! My husband and I will do all we can to stay here again.

“A typical country cottage”

This cottage was beautiful inside & out. The kitchen was the heart of the cottage complete with an AGA which meant meals had to be thought about, but it provided warmth throughout the house. The beds were kingsize and very comfortable,the bathroom was spacious and the whole place was spotlessly clean. Ample books, games & DVDs available, only possible complaint is maybe a larger TV would be better but you don't go to such a lovely part of the country to watch TV! A short drive away from Alnwick and the coast, an ideal location.

“cottage with character in quiet and peaceful setting”

We enjoyed the views from this cottage, and use of the tennis court/playing field. It made a good base for exploring the area around alnwick and the beautiful beaches.

“Home from home but better!”

Everything and everyone is catered for - right down to an extensive range of CDs and DVDs to use. We loved the large, bright kitchen, especially the range and all the amenities to give a home from home feeling. The decor throughout was cosy and warm and overall, gave a real cottage feeling. Certainly a relaxing, peaceful location but ideally situated to visit the sights the area has to offer/

“Happy and relaxed holiday”

I thought the cottage was lovely, it instantly felt warm and welcoming. We travelled with a child and grandparent and everyone enjoyed the area and returning each evening to such a great cottage. The aga was fun to use, walks right from the door and an excellent inn almost opposite. The cottage was clean and had lots of entertainment in it, cd's books, games and dvd's. A lovely introduction to the North of England

“So good, we're going back!”

Sunflower cottage is a true home from home. Comfortable, spacious and (once we'd worked out the Raeburn) cosy. Eglingham is wonderful and a great base from which to explore all Northumberland has to offer. Although only there for a week, the cottage really made an impression. The first thing we did on getting home was book another week in the Summer!

About the location

EGLINGHAM

Alnwick 7 miles.

The pretty village of Eglingham sits on a country road between Alnwick and Chillingham, and with its stone houses, lovely gardens, stream and wooded areas, it makes a lovely spot to visit. There is a fine Victorian church in the village, a large pub and also a good restaurant. The surroundings are ideal for those wishing to get away from it all – you may see the heron grace the Eglingham burn, or just relax and take in the views and incredibly wide skies of the area. Within easy reach are the Holy Island of Lindisfarne, the Farne Islands, the castles at Dunstanburgh, Warkworth, Chillingham and of course Alnwick, with its spectacular Garden next door.
