"We enjoyed our stay at this property but we were a bit disappointed with the cleanliness of it."
On arrival we found dirty towels in the hallway. The downstairs shower didn’t look clean so we all used the upstairs one. There were dog hairs in the dining room area which hadn’t been vacuumed. Unsure if the bedrooms had been vacuumed as we found a couple of dead bugs on the carpets. The property could also do with a proper freezer. The beds were comfortable with plenty of wardrobe space. The kitchen was small but had plenty of crockery and glasses.

Private parking is always a bonus in Seahouses. The beds were comfy, as were the settees, plenty of hot water and the house was warm.
However, Hazonleigh is in need of a thorough clean and some TLC.
We have been visiting Northumberland for many years, and have rebooked some cottages on more than one occasion, however, we won't be returning to Hazonleigh.
We are happy you enjoyed your stay at Hazonleigh, and found it to be comfortable. We are indeed very central for Seahouses. We are sorry to hear you were disappointed in the cleaning, I will pass this on to the cleaning team. We normally score 100% for the cleanliness and are very grateful to our cleaners. Unfortunately you had not informed me this on your arrival,I am unsure as to why you found Hazonleigh unclean. I have visited recently and found no problem with the property. It is a relatively new holiday let with new furniture etc. The visitors prior to you commentated that it was clean

"The cottage was great -clean, comfortable, perfect location."
The directions were poor: the property is actually 11 King Street and the driveway on Mayfield. 'Turn left into Mayfield' needed to include 'driveway immediately on right behind the property'
Also the Sykes time to leave said 9am(too early) but the house guidance said 10am (much more acceptable)
We are sorry you found directions difficult. Our address is given in full on booking. Access to parking is easily found turning into property via Mayfield, property on immediate right. With gated parking.

It was clean, well equipped with everything you could possibly need, warm and had some lovely little additions, such as a welcome pack, games, books and a starter pack for the log burner. Great to have off street parking, probably only big enough for one car or two small ones.
For us the layout was perfect, our dog hates laminate flooring (which tends to be in most coastal rentals) so it was great we had the porch and carpeted area, she refused to come into the kitchen!
We did hear the dogs next door which everyone seems to mention in feedback but in honesty they weren't bad and didn't bother us.
We'd definitely stay here again! 4 nights felt like a week - great break.

The house was spacious and clean, and the location was perfect. Seahouses is a beautiful place plenty of shops and a great base to stay.The facilities were good, beds comfortable,house clean and modern and the garden safe for our two shihtzu's. The dogs next door barked early morning and at night but did not bother us too much, I'm sure our dogs and 5 year old grandson were equally noisy at times! So much to do even though the weather wasn't perfect we were out and about walking on Bamburgh and Beadnell beaches, went to Holy Island and Alnwick and Dunstanburgh Castles. We were with our son and his kids aged 5 and 13 years so a mixture of ages to cater for. We had a fantastic time and did not want to come home.

Deceptively spacious with all mod cons. The wall around the property is not high so dogs need to be on leads when exiting the property, but that's no hardship. The only downside to the property, which is not something the owners can do anything about, is next doors dogs. Unfortunately they decided to bark / howl numerous times throughout the night on both nights of our stay - so an afternoon nap was needed, but that's what holidays are for

Located close to all shops, pubs and restaurants and Seahouses harbour. The 'canine chorus' from the dogs next door was infrequent and short lived and did not bother us, though the noise from traffic on he main road outside main bedroom did disturb us early mornings. The curtains in the twin bedroom are too thin and sleep is difficult. This place is perfectly suited to exploring coastal areas. We were lucky to have good weather and spent little time in the house. The immediate environment is not particularly attractive if you spend time in the house and there is no private outside space.

"We had a lovely stay in Hazonleigh."
The house is really spacious for a holiday house where, all too often, any available space is portioned up to add an extra bathroom. The accommodation has been well thought through; there is a large kitchen/diner with a sofa, a bright sunny sitting room, a utility room with a shower room which is ideal for getting rid of sand/mud before tracking it into the main house. The bedrooms are spacious and the beds comfortable.
The house was generally clean although we were disappointed to find some part finished bottles of drink in the fridge. This was a surprise as the emails from the letting company were pretty draconian about check out dos and don'ts.
Some of the bedroom curtains are a little thin so it might be an idea to bring blackout fabric if you're travelling with small children although the curtains in the main bedroom are brilliant.
There was clear information about what to put in each bin which is important as this varies so much from place to place. Details about the bin collections were not included in the otherwise comprehensive welcome pack which worried us as the black bin was pretty full when we arrived. We kept an eye on the neighbours and were poised to rush out to put the bin out only to find that a 'bin fairy' had got there first! A relief but a note to that effect in the welcome pack would have been useful.
A note to light sleepers - the dogs resident in the next door house can be noisy, although when we were there this was only for short periods. They did wake us in the early hours (4:30 am and 5:00 am) but we were able to get back to sleep. If you are likely to find that this would spoil your holiday this might not be the home for you.

Comfortable and well proportioned. Could have done with some hand soap in the bathrooms. The wall around the property is not particularly high and as the property is on a main road, felt uneasy letting the dogs out unsupervised. Whoever put the wheelie bin out left the gate wide open. Thankfully I saw this before letting the dogs out. We did hear a lot of howling and barking from the dogs next door which woke us through the night and early morning. The property itself is fine, but the issues with safety for my dogs and the noise next door would stop me from booking again unfortunately

"The first thing I want to make clear is that in spite of feedback left by other visitors the dogs next door did not bother us."
Yes, they barked or howled occasionally, sometimes - definitely not always- in the early morning, but never for long. Do not let this put you off. This is a very comfortable cottage, well situated. The Coop is only 100 yards away and it stays open late. The on site parking is needed and was no problem for our small car. My only plea is for the owners to give up on the commercially put together welcome packs and go over to a straight pint of milk, bottle of washing up liquid and sufficient dishwasher tablets for once a day. I don't have a dishwasher at home and don't keep a supply of tablets, so buying a box would have been daft for me. And I have only this year come up against inductive hobs for the first time. From a previous experience I knew you had to have a pan on the stove to make it work but the instruction booklet for this one didn't make that clear. Some instructions in plain English separate from the booklets would be a help to those of us who are not so up to date. However, it is also indicative of the quality of the renovation of this cottage.

"The location was great, property was well proportioned with good facilities."
However, I would not stay again for the following reasons: dogs barking at all hours next door, the second bathroom was downstairs in the utility room and very inconveniently located if families are sharing the house and trying to use separate bathrooms - both of these things should be made very clear upfront and there were half used toilet rolls rather than new toilet rolls left. Also while the advertisement mentioned 3 cars can be parked, they would have to be very small cars because we found it tricky to park 2 larger cars - it was a struggle and again this should be clear.
Nowhere, do we advertise for parking for three cars, another reviewer did this, but on that occasion, they had parked one car on the patio, which made access to the shed impossible, so we couldn’t get to the lawn mower and couldn’t get near the bin, in order to put it out on the street.
It is quite clear, that one large car, or two small cars can park off road. But right outside the gate, on Mayfield, is free parking for another three cars.
