• "Faultless what more can I say."

  We will definitely be back soon. Just a short walk to the dog friendly beaches which the pooches loved. Plenty to do and see including boat trips on the harbour to see all the sea animals even the Orcas showed there face. Lindisfarne is beautiful check time of tides. All in all holiday to remember and a big thankyou to Louise who even had tea, coffee and milk for a nice cuppa on arrival after a long drive. The house lovely spacious and immaculately clean loved the corner bath for a nice soak after a long day. Can't recommend it enough just book it

  Thank you Tina for this review. I hope to see you again some time. Louise Property Owner

• "The suggestion to control heat in the rooms was not helped by the fact that some of the temperature controls on the radiators don't work."

  The one in the bedroom simply rotated round and round but we could not turn down the heat which we found opressive. We could not access many of the TV channels due to interference on screen. Finally I found the chairs and table in the kitchen totally uncomfortable due to the miniscule size. I'm only 6 feet tall but I felt like I was sitting at a primary school desk.

  Mr Vaughan, thanks for highlighting the issues with the radiators. This is already in hand to repair. I sure you turned heating off or opened a window to cure problem of being too hot. I tried the TV and can find no channels that are unwatchable with interference, but I’ll put a note in cottage regarding how to use TV based on your comment. The only thing you wasn’t specified was the item that wasn’t clean resulting in the low cleaning score. I clean my cottages to a high standard that is generally appreciated. Please tell me what was below standard in the cleanliness area and I’ll be sure to correct for future guests. All comments are good so thank you for yours, I aim to give a good holiday experience so will be addressing items you issued. Kind regards Louise Property Owner

  Welcome folder which was very informative about the house and local amenities. Liked the signs on the front door, beach left, shops right. Walk to beautiful beaches 10 mins, shops mins max. Seahouses is wonderful, very dog friendly and nice shops. Comprehensive co-op, butchers, bakers, wet fish monger plus lots more. Lots of nice details in cottage and very well equipped, heating excellent. We shall definitely be returning and already recommending. What a lovely holiday!

• "Lovely cottage and fantastic location."

  Cottage is cosy and feels homely with all the soft furnishings and accessories. Plenty of storage space too. The only downside for me is the outside garden furniture in the balcony and back yard is old / dated and falling apart and this lets the property down as everything else is fitted to a good standard and thought out well so to make this 10 out of 10 I would suggest replacing this tired furniture and it would be perfect. Apart from that a lovely place and if we ever visit Northumberland again we would consider staying at Hastings Dairy.

  Lloyd, thank you for your response. You are right we do need some work on back of property as it’s a fantastic sunspot and we don’t make enough use of it. Will get onto this now, rest assured if you return there will be an improvement. Kind regards Louise Property Owner

• "Simply but comfortably and attractivley furnised, well stocked kitchen with utensills."

  Tea bags, milk and biscuits provided on arrival. Comfy beds and sofas. Owner Louise came and said hello and checked all was okay. Gets the sun most of the day untill 6pm in the back and nice to sit out on the balcony also. You can park outside the cottage on the road or on the slope right by the house, we did get the car in the garage but very narrow and is an access route, possible to drive though into the yard. Seahouses itself is about a 10 min walk on the pavement and is very picturesque. Was actually nicer to be just outside the main area. Very enjoyable stay and would deffinitley go back

• "Lovely cosy cottage, well located."

  Clean had everything you need. There are a few improvements/maintenance that are needed: the shower hose leeks quite a bit, the front door is stiff to open and it's the first time I've stayed in a house without a washing machine. None of these took anything away from our Lovely stay. I would recommend Hastings dairy and would stay again.

• "Could not fault the cleanliness."

  Everywhere was immaculately clean. Unfortunately the cottage on arrival (4pm) was very cold, we had driven through a few flurries of snow and low temperatures so expected heating to be on. Although 3 shelves in master bedroom, a chest of drawers would have would have been better suited. Lack of storage for food provisions. Cottage states for 4 people but I feel it would seem overcrowded for 4 adults, thankfully just two of us. Balcony was great for the night skies. Seahouses is central for visiting beaches and villages along the coastal route....love this area.

  , being modern, but in keeping with the house and the area. Patio and balcony caught the sun all day. Milk in the fridge and biscuits for a welcome cup of tea when we arrived.

Thank-you. We hope to stay again as there are so many things we still want to do in the area.

• "The kitchen is very good and the local Co-Op well stocked."

  Portly customers might struggle to sit round the table. We knew there wasn’t a washing machine and came prepared, but unlike most Youth Hotels there’s no drying room. Stronger light bulbs on the landing and a re-located ‘doggy gate’ would improve safety (we 4 were between 59 & 86). Different coloured towels would be better. More supportive mattresses would have helped us ancient mortals. The viability of the property may change once the proposed yellow line parking is implemented as there isn’t enough paid parking half a mile away in Seahouses; we gather that zealous traffic wardens penalise pavement parking outside the cottage and only very small vehicles can be parked directly in front, although with significant skill we managed to park a Mini Cooper in the rear yard through the garage (which is off-bounds)

  Bed was comfy and facilities were spot on. Lovely and warm, plenty of hot water. Back yard handy for first and last doggy tiddles. Nice pleasant walk for beach or shop, harbour and pub etc. Dog friendly pubs, plenty of take-aways. Had Indian from Spices, wasn’t very spicy, the other one is fantastic. Best chippy is Lewis’s. Ideal place to visit Holy Island, Bamburgh and Beadnell close by and other places further away. Hostess Louise keeps in touch, very friendly. Would definitely return.

• "This cottage has the potential to be great, and is absolutely in a brilliant location."

  A few things: 1. The shower head is completely disgusting and needs sorting out immediately. The owner cannot claim ignorance of this as it is mentioned in the review book in the cottage. 2. Multiple blown light bulbs...a pet hate of mine...but really simple to check for. 3. You really need a washing machine... Otherwise, the communications from the owner were great, and we had a nice time. Sort the shower out...a new head costs about £5 from Lidl!
