"The owners were very helpful."
Lovely people. The house is great. Everything we needed was there. Only issues we found were that the bathroom radiator did not work properly and the floor in there whilst lovely is chilly on the feet. The shower in main bathroom also did not drain very well. We could not see any reason for this. The road outside is heavily potholed so take are driving in. It is in a great location very close to beach. Its also very quiet. We had a lovely Christmas and thank the owners who allowed us in an hour early. Its a lovely place with everything you need. Fantastic for families as very large! On edge of village. Morrisons not far away and Coop in village. Short drive to Alnwick. Warkworth Castle well worth the vist.

"Had an absolutely lovely long weekend with friends at Rosedale House."
The property was perfect for the needs of our group and felt like a proper 'home from home' - a warm and welcoming space where we could all relax together in the evening after days out exploring the coast. The location is perfect - just a short stroll across the green, down to the sea or 5 minutes walk into the town centre. The rooms and communal spaces are comfortable and the kitchen is very well-stocked with utensils and crockery - plenty of space for cooking dinner for five. We would definitely rent this property again. The only reason we haven't given it 5 stars is because the lighting in the kitchen is a little bit too dim and that made it difficult to see when cooking. Unfortunately the light in the over-hob extractor also wasn't working. I'm sure this is less of a problem in the summer when there's plenty of natural light but in winter we were mainly cooking after dark, so a bit of extra wattage would have been very useful! I've said 'no' to publishing the feedback, mainly because I didn't want our complaint about the kitchen lighting to be published. It was a minor issue in what was otherwise a really great stay.
Hi Angela, I'm Andy, the owner of Rosedale House. Glad to hear you enjoyed your stay, and thanks for your feedback. We recently changed the lights in the kitchen, but its obviously not working too well. Not sure if just bulbs or a limitation on the fittings, but I'll get this looked at and changed in the next few weeks. Thanks and regards Andy Property Owner

"We love Rosedale House and this was our third stay."
However on the previous two occasions under the original management company the property has been spotless on our arrival and this time it was not. We do not believe many of the horizontal surfaces had seen a duster in weeks. There was only one "soiled" tea towel (we had taken our own) and an oven glove had dried on food. The frying pan should be replaced as it was dirty and we were unable to clean it satisfactorily There were only 5 dinner plates for 6 people! We took our own but there were no dishwasher tablets, just an empty box, and a couple of washing machine tablets would also have been welcome as would a better scourer and sponge. Scissors would be a useful addition to the utensils too and we could not find a broom. The top bathroom toilet seat requires attention.
Hi, I'm the owner of Rosedale House, and I'd like to thank you for raising these issues. I'll pass your comments on to the cleaner and we'll work together to make sure it's cleaned to its previous standards again. All the other items you mention are being sorted right now and will be resolved by the end of the week for the next guests Property Owner

"The property is in a fantastic location - easy walking distance to town / rock pools / park and a great base to visit other areas such as Alnmouth and Alnwick."
Overall the property was great with lots of space for our group of 3 adults and 2 kids. Parking was easy outside. My only feedback is the interior could do with a little tlc. Simple changes like comfier cushions in the lounge and a better stocked kitchen would make a difference (glasses / spatula / more plates and bowls) overall fab cottage and would love to come back
Hi and thanks for your comments. I'll certainly take on board as we look to a winter refresh of the house. Some of the kitchen equipment does get broken or lost over time, so I'll review what we have at the moment and restock as appropriate in the near future. Property Owner

"Property was a great location with easy parking and loads of room for group of 5 (plus dog!"
). A Parking disc thing with instructions would have been helpful - only £1 but we didn’t know about them or how to buy one and got quite frustrated trying to park in various places (moroeth & alnwick) not knowing what a “disc” was. Figured it out in the end, found a machine and bought one. we also left it behind for the next guests to use.

"We had a lovely stay at Rosedale House and were really happy with both the accommodation and the location."
There was plenty of space in the house for 5 adults, a toddler and a dog and great to be so near the sea and lovely town of Amble. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen well kitted out and it was a really quiet and relaxing place to stay. Amble is a lovely harbour town with beach, green spaces, interesting shops and food outlets and also close to other beautiful places to visit. Would certainly stay here again!

"Negative comments are mainly based on the state of the kitchen and the cleanliness of downstairs."
Sometimes wonder if you’re reps visit the property to ensure they are in good order. Upstairs was in better order and if it had all been like that, then no problems. Position was ideal for us with having the dog.
Hi Richard, As the owner of Rosedale House, I'd just like to thank you for your feedback. Normally, our guests are very satisfied with the condition of the house, so maybe something was amiss here. If you'd like to contact me directly to expand on the problems you encountered that would be very welcome (andrew.owen.callaghan@googlemail.com). Thanks - Andy Property Owner

"Rosedale is a lovely three storey, south facing property just a few hundred yards for the sea."
It's well furnished and equipped and is presented to a high standard. We loved our stay here and would consider coming back. It's situatued close with a 5 min walk of the centre of Amble. All in all very good.

It is clean and all you will need is in the property.

"The property was perfect for our needs, clean and well equipped."
It was a pleasant 15 minute walk from Amble via the coast and convenient for places to visit. There was parking for both cars, and although the space outside was close to full we never had a problem in finding a space. We’d definitely consider booking this property again.
