"Was disappointed to receive a notice on my car windscreen on Saturday morning ..."
Was disappointed to receive a notice on my car windscreen on Saturday morning when parked at the side of the cottage there is a sign saying 24hr access required what I was blocking I’m not sure but as it was on the cottage we were staying in I assumed it belonged to our cottage

"The drive is tight for larger vehicles, we have a rear wheel drive estate car ..."
The drive is tight for larger vehicles, we have a rear wheel drive estate car and due to the large amount of rain that had fallen the drive was just mud and the car just slid, this wasnt helped as the neighbour opposite has put a fence round their back garden while we were there, and there is a bush in the entrance to the cottage drive which you have to manoeuvre around, this is the only issue we had and apart from this we had an amazing stay at this cottage
Many thanks for your feedback, unfortunately the parking issue is beyond our control. Glad that despite the parking issues you had an enjoyable stay. Property Owner

"The parking is really only for one modern car - we had a Vauxhall Mokka which fitted in okay but our daughter has a Kia Sportage didn’t attempt to get in so parked near church ."
Also fridge doesn’t always engage properly all the time and unfortunately when our two year old dropped her book by the coach nearest the bedrooms she she picked up a piece of broken glass . The cottage was comfortable spacious and welcoming and we enjoyed our stay very much indeed .
Hi, we are glad you enjoyed your time in the cottage, the issue with the broken glass will be taken up with the cleaning staff, we apologise for that. The cottage parking is restricted by the age and location of the property something which unfortunately we are unable to do anything about. Many thanks for your feedback. Property Owner

"Amazing days with family & dog."
Thank you so much for the opportunity to stay at your amazing cottage. We will hopefully be back in the spring.

"Great cottage,10/10,everything you need, One thing that needs fixed is when it rains there is a very bad leak above the patio door that is causing damage to the property internally."
Being in the building trade upon inspection the patio doors have not been sealed at the top at the small trickle vents where the water is coming in. Easily sealed with silicone to prevent any serious damage to the lovely property,definitely be back10/10,Great place to stay!
Hi, many thanks for your feedback, much appreciated. Thank you for the advice which is being addressed. Glad you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner

"We had a great break, loved Northumberland, loved Seahouses."
Sunshine Cottage is in a great location, 15 minute walk into Seahouses where there are some nice pubs, restaurants and shops. The property has a lovely garden ideal for dogs and children. The kitchen is equipped with everything you could possible need. Lounge/dining area was perfect. Bedrooms had comfy beds however there was a damp fusty smell in all the bedrooms. We could not use any drawers or wardrobes in the bedrooms as they all smelled damp and fusty. The duvets in the twin room looked old and dirty. Nice property but it needs some tlc and a good clean.
-
"The property is excellently supplied with everything a family needs."
However one of the bedrooms seemed to appear damp (the double room) and some of the fixtures and fittings have seen better days. However it would not stop us considering coming back to Sunshine Cottage.

"A fantastic property - cosy but spacious with a fantastic enclosed garden - perfect for dogs and children."
Well equipped with an excellent location - a gentle 15 min stroll to the centre and beach. Superb restaurant, 1 minute walk away across the road too!
-
"Nice enough cottage with lovely garden unfortunately quite often got smoked out as allotments right next to it."
Access and parking spot very difficult for anyone with a large car. Quite hairy exiting onto main road as unable to see what is coming towards you when turning right Sofa could do with new filling in cushions.
-
"The boiler was quite noisy."
I think the access to the property should have a warning that it is narrow and has angles which would cause problems for medium and large vehicles. Also the property is not visible from the road.

"VERY COSY AND CLEAN, NEAR SHOPS AND COAST ROAD."
-
"Lovely cottage in excellent location, enjoying the dog friendly quiet garden as well as beautiful beaches nearby."
Superb walks, fantastic views, just love Northumberland.
-
"Sunshine is a lovely cottage within 1/2 mile easy walking distance of Seahouses."
Being able to sit out on the deck provides a great start and end to a day out exploring the area. Just a few steps so ideal for those less able too!

"Lovely and peaceful, cosy (but spacious) cottage with a fabulous garden - perfect for an Easter Egg hunt!"
-
"Absolutely perfect - couldn’t wish for anything more."
-
"The accommodation was well appointed and maintained - clean, tidy, comfortable and well equipped."
We very much enjoyed our stay and would think about returning. We had the benefit of the bustling (even in winter) amenities of Seahouses within a 15 minutes walk away and also the peace and quiet of our location.
-
"Well we return every year two or three times so it’s perfect."
Thank you.

The property
Nestling on the outskirts of the picturesque fishing village of Seahouses in Northumberland, Sunshine Cottage is presented to an extremely high standard and offers perfect accommodation for a family holiday.
The open-plan living area is particularly inviting with a bright and airy seating area adjoining patio doors leading outside to the stunning decking area and gardens.
On sunny days, you can imagine spending lots of time out here soaking up the sun, chilling out on the decking and exploring the gardens.
Step into the fully fitted kitchen which has everything the designated chef needs to conjure up delicious meals for the whole holiday party.
The dining area is ready and waiting for guests to pull up a chair and enjoy long, lazy meals together.
Come bedtime and there are three superbly appointed bedrooms, two doubles and a twin; all offer a restful sanctuary after a hard day of exploring and after a refreshing shower or a relaxing soak in the bath, you’re ready to get out and about.
It’s just a short walk to the sandy beaches of Seahouses with the village itself well worth a visit, offering a good variety of shops and eateries.
You can catch a boat from here to Farne Islands where you can look out for birds and seals.
Jump in the car and head out to attractions such as Bamburgh Castle, Alnwick Castle and Gardens, Dunstanburgh Castle, Northumberland Country Zoo, Hauxley Wildlife Discovery Centre and Hadrian’s Wall.
Activities to look forward to while you’re in the region include golf at Alnmouth, horse-riding at Slate Hall Riding Centre and surfing at Bamburgh Castle Beach.
Whether the sun is shining or not, a stay at Sunshine Cottage promises to be relaxing, enjoyable and memorable.
