  • "Fabulous cottage!"

    Fantastic welcome package thank you! Lovely touches include nice garden furniture front and back and lovely flower tubs and baskets - great value for money. Fab pub a stones throw away. Handy for Bamborough Seahouses etc yet so peaceful in the village of Lucker.would highly recommend.

  • "There had been a significant spill of heating oil some time before we arrived and the smell filled the cottage."

    When the wind was from the west it was close to unbearable. The treatment being used by the maintenance men was clearly making no difference. We had several nights where sleep was difficult because the smell was overpowering. At no point did a senior manager make contact, nor were we offered alternative accommodation or any compensation. We didn't feel we were being taken seriously. We paid £2,200 for two weeks but never again with this company.

  • "Our party thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Chaffinch Cottage, this was a special trip for my elderly mother to return to her roots and this was the perfect base."

    The ground staff were very helpful when we had an issue with heating in one of the bedrooms/en-suit. Thank you for a lovely holiday.
