“Fabulous cottage with lots of character, surprisingly spacious, perfect location.”

Kit's Cottage is situated a short walk outside Belford, a lovely village with excellent pubs and shops. It's close to the beach and central to many fabulous historical attractions including Holy Island and the castles of the Northumberland coastline. The surrounding countryside is beautiful and the area is completely unspoilt. The cottage itself sleeps 5 people and has been renovated to an exceptionally high standard, it is furnished beautifully.

Marni, the owner is really friendly and helpful, she is available to answer any questions, advise on the area and recommend places to visit. I would highly recommend the cottage as the perfect base to explore Northumberland.

“Kits Cottage is very comfortable with good facilities for self catering.”

It is particularly well located for visits to Lindisfarne, Bamburgh and Alnwick and the spectacular Northumbrian coast. We very much enjoyed our brief holiday, thank you.

“Excellent accommodation in a very good location.”

Lots to do in the area from Lindisfarne to Alnick and Seahouses for the Farne Islands. Plenty of good walks straight off the doorstep and close enough for a few pub meals out which were all good to excellent. Comfortable and clean in the cottage, so good all round.

“Really comfortable cottage and lovely garden and sea views.”

We knew the cottage doesn’t have a washing machine but it’d be great if they get one especially for extended stays. The owners were very helpful both before our trip and during too. We’d come back.

“Kits Cottage provided a perfect base to explore Northumberland and the Borders.”

We’d booked for a week but could easily have stayed for 2 as there was so much to do. We loved the cottage. It was cosy & well furnished to meet all of our needs (family of 4 plus dog). The only thing that would make it better is a washing machine/tumble drier.

“Great cottage in a quiet location, with the local village around a mile away.”

The pictures do not show a garden, but the cottage has a lovely large very dog friendly one which we liked as it was safe and secure. The cottage was comfortable and well equipped. Lovely comfortable beds and a nice shower. The cottage also has parking for 2 cars at the rear of the property, so no squezzing the car into as all space! I would recommend to family's with dogs and children as the cottage and garden is well suited.

“Great cosy cottage”

What a lovely little cottage for us and our two dogs to explore beautiful Northumberland. Everything was there that we needed and we felt very much at home. Reviewers on Sykes Cottages who we booked with have mentioned there's no washing machine but we knew that when booking as it wasn't listed in the amenities so this really isn't an issue for us. Majority of the cottages we've stayed in haven't had washing machines. The WiFi was excellent and fast and good mobile coverage too. The double bed was really comfy and the cottage was warm and cosy, too warm in fact we had to turn the heaters down! Basics to make a drink where provided for when we arrived and the heating was on which was a nice touch as it was a cold February. The owners provided throws in the living room to get cosy on the couch which I really appreciate as it's what I do at home. We didn't try lighting the open fire as didn't really need it but I'm sure it's lovely when it's on and there was a starter pack provided. Good size very well maintained garden for the dogs to run up of a morning and last thing at night. Garden furniture also provided on a patio area, would be lovely in the summer. Dark skies at night is something really special and the skies were stunning. Cottage is situated to local supermarket in Belford which is a co-op. It could easily be walked to if you fancied not driving. There's also a chippy and some pubs in the village although we ate out in Berwick and Alnwick. We really would love to come again to this well presented cottage. Also got an email from owner explaining the WiFi password and how to access property from the back which was good to know.

Important for our teenager - not us! Took a while to sort but was delayed by internet provider not owners, who shared our frustration.
