  • "Hi we absolutely love your place."

    It is our second visit and hope to return again next year. Just a couple of things that may be worth thinking about: A new bathroom lock ( we were 4 friends so had to sing lol) The bathroom window doesn’t shut properly The shower is a little juddery - although still perfectly functional A tin opener. Non of these things detracted from our stay. Loved it and would definitely recommend . It has got to have one of the best views in Northumberland and it is such a pleasure to wake up to it. Thank you for a wonderful stay

    We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay at Links View. Thank you for pointing out those issues. The lock on the door and window locks in the bathroom can be temperamental in this old building and we will look into sorting this out. We do endeavour to make sure the kitchen is always fully equipped and the missing tin opener has been replaced since your stay. We hope that you will come again! All the best, Heidi and Jo Property Owner

  • "We stayed at this cottage each year (sometimes twice) from 2009-2019."

    This is our first visit since 5 years ago. Still as beautiful and peaceful as ever with breath taking views! Inside of cottage lovely and clean but lots of cobwebs and weeds on the back patio and balcony doors. Not a complaint but found the kitchen not as well equipped as previous stays e.g.out of the 7 mis matched mugs 3 were chipped so could not use them, no serving bowls and no tin opener! However, really enjoyed our stay at the lovely cottage

    We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for bringing those things to our attention - things understandably can get broken or go missing over busy periods and we need to know about these. We hope you will come to stay again. All the best, Heidi and Jo. Property Owner

  • "Our third visit to Links View and hopefully not the last!"

    It is a fabulous home, really well equipped, extremely comfortable and with amazing views across the bay.

    Thank you so much for your kind feedback. We are always so pleased to hear that guests enjoy being at Links View as much as we do and hope to return. Heidi and Jo Property Owner

  • "The pre-clean for our stay was acceptable but the kitchen and bathroom would benefit from a more thorough clean e."

    G. just under the cupboards in the kitchen is filthy, not easily seen by everyone but I'm petite and could see clearly the need for a blitz. The basin was very clean in the bowl and taps but outside the bowl and the pedestal were not. The window sills were a bit webby and dusty. Sorry, we love this property but you did ask!

    We are so sorry that the cleaning was not up to scratch on this occasion. Thank you for letting us know. Our housekeeper is aware of the issues and will ensure that this does not occur again. We hope you had a good stay and will come again. Heidi and Jo (owners) Property Owner

  • "The new cutlery could be a bit big for children to use , perhaps could do with a couple of smaller sets also plastic beakers ."

    Could do with a 4th chair for balcony. Socket light in downstairs hallway a great addition. Thank you

    Thank you for your suggestions. We have now included some more child friendly cutlery and beakers at the cottage. If there are not enough chairs on the balcony for your party when you arrive, please feel free to use any of the folding chairs from the bedrooms. We hope you had a good holiday and will return to Links View again. Heidi and Jo (owners) Property Owner

  • "We've been going twice, sometimes 3 times a year to Links View for the last 16 years at the same time."

    Indeed, NCCC, your predecessors, used to contact us regarding said bookings if we hadn't contacted them. Imagine our disappointment when in attempting to book for next year our 13th May booking, you'd let it go, not mindful of our history. You don't care enough about individuals and that's why you only got a 5. L.A.Steel.

    We are so sorry that you had this experience with Sykes. We have resolved the issue for the following year and hope that we can prevent this from happening again. We as owners really do value our return guests and hope that you will continue to come back to enjoy staying at Links View. Heidi and Jo Property Owner

  • "We arrived at 4pm as required to find that there was NO heating on in the property - it was 6."

    6 degrees in the property which is totally unacceptable on a winters evening. It took hours to get the place warmed up and we should not have had to sit in our coats in the meantime. I find it hard to believe that nobody could have popped in a couple of hours before our arrival and switched on the various heaters. That aside, once the cottage was heated, it was lovely and we had a lovely break.

    We always try to ensure that our guests arrive to a warm cottage. I am so sorry that this was not the case for you. Thank you for letting us know. Our housekeeper had been in to check that the cottage was ‘guest ready’ and to switch on the heating earlier in the day, but fears that she must not have adjusted the thermostat correctly on this occasion. We hope that you were able to enjoy your stay and that you will come again. Wishing you a happy new year. Kind regards, Heidi and Jo. Property Owner

  • "This is a fabulous property in a fabulous position."

    Owners have gone to a lot of effort to keep a high standard of decoration, & with many lovely small details, throughout the accommodation. The description of the Links View property as "top quality" is accurate unlike some of the other properties in this area that we have had the misfortune to stay in where the reality falls way short of their description. This experience of properties ranging from really lovely (like LinksView) to not at all lovely but with similar descriptions on the NCC website makes it very difficult to chose holiday properties & even to trust the listings. We love Links View & thank the owners for taking such trouble to keep their property up to this standard.

  • "Lovely holiday, always enjoy Embleton - third stay at the property - though on this occasion disappointed to find letter box hanging off front door on arrival and a chair on the balcony was broken and became un-usable by middle of the week."

    House keeper and owner both informed. More disappointed to see however that the cost of the same seven night holiday stay has increased by over 20% for 2024.

About the location

EMBLETON

Craster 3 miles; Beadnell 4 miles; Alnwick 7 miles.

The pretty village of Embleton is ideally placed for exploring one of the most attractive stretches of Northumberland's Heritage Coastline. A beautiful grassy path runs from the village to neighbouring Craster, alongside the sea and past Dunstanburgh Castle - the largest ruined castle in Northumberland. Embleton itself has a village pub and a local hotel, and there is an excellent range of amenities in nearby Alnwick. The gardens at nearby Howick Hall are open during the summer and are noted for their beauty, whilst Alnwick Castle and Garden are a 'must-see' when visiting the area. For the keen golfer, Dunstanburgh Links Course is about 1 mile away - just one of several excellent courses in the vicinity.
