"The George was wonderful nice touch with the welcome gifts."
Would definitely recommend it and would certainly go again
Hello! Thank you so much! Looking forward to welcoming you back too! :) Property Owner

"Wow! Simple as that really."
For a 1 bedroom flat, this place is amazing. In fact, I didn't want to leave.... The whole place is comfortable and homely. The sofas in the living room are now on my list to buy for my own house. The kitchen has everything in it that you could need. (including cling film and foil). Spotlessly clean. The garden was a great addition. I genuinely can't praise the place enough! Being able to park around the back also came in useful as it is a popular street. I am familiar with the area so always knew the location would be perfect for us. Shops and a few great pubs around the corner. Short walk to the metro station. Short walk to Spanish city and the beach. This trip has reconfirmed why I want to relocate up there. However while that isn't an option, I'll just have to book to stay again (already looking at dates)
Wow, right back Sarah, thank you so much! I’m so happy you’ve had such a lovely stay and you like The George. Our main aim is comfort and I’m so happy you found it. (It’s the sofas that do it!! ). We really look forward to welcoming you back. ☺️ Property Owner

"Stayed in many holiday properties over the years but found The George to be one of the very best."
No negatives at all only positives. Furnished and equipped to the highest standard, very welcoming and warm with everything that you could need and more thought of by the owners. Only 4mins walk to the wonderful beach and even less to the shops and many places to eat. In a great position for getting out and about. Visited Alnmouth, Newbiggin-by-Sea, Amble and Seaton Sluice (excellent fish & chip shop). Tynemouth held a great weekend craft/food market within the station. Spent the day in nearby Newcastle, what a great city. Will definitely recommend.
Thank you so so much Lyn, this is very nice of you and we’re so happy you enjoyed your stay and got to see so many wonderful places. Really looking forward to welcoming you all back. :) Property Owner

"Excellent accommodation near to beach and shops."
Welcoming pack was fantastic and added to the stay together with the complimentary coffee and machine. Garden was secure and ideal for dogs. Would highly recommend

"We absolutely loved this property."
It was even better than it looked in photos and bigger than expected. It was luxurious but felt homely and relaxing. The welcome pack was the best we’ve ever had and even included doggy treats. Location between beach and town (2 minutes either way) was excellent.
Thank you so much Karen, we’re so happy you enjoyed your stay and many thanks for your kind words! :) Property Owner

"Would highly recommend for a perfect location, plenty of space and all the comforts you need for a restful holiday."
Thank you also for the amazing hamper on arrival which was packed with lovely treats - even for the dog! No negatives at all and will definitely be back.
Hi Gemma, Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. Massively appreciated. Looking forward to welcoming you all back! :) Property Owner

"This has got to be one of the best rentals that I have ever stayed in."
The location is good - close to all amenities. The cleanliness was perfect, the welcome goodies were superb and the decor and equipment were second to none. You can totally tell that the owners put a lot of thought and effort into making this apartment as good as it could be. One thing that would make it even better would be a cupboard or storage space specifically for food, all the ones we used had cooking utensils in etc. Overall though, simply brilliant, we would not hesitate coming back next time we need to stay around Newcastle.
Hello Guy, thank you so much for your feedback, we’re absolutely delighted you enjoyed your stay. And thank you for the suggestion! We’ll definitely sort that out, an easy fix - much appreciated. Looking forward to welcoming you back :) Property Owner

"Beautiful apartment far beyond expectations."
So much thought has been given to every aspect of comfort and information for our holiday.We appreciated the welcome hamper and all the little luxurys in the bathroom! This is the best Sykes property we have stayed in and we have stayed in a lot. The George is a credit to you Jenny and we will definitely be back. Thank you
Thank you so much Judith, I’m absolutely thrilled you’ve enjoyed your stay so much. It’s massively appreciated it. Really looking forward to welcoming you back :) Property Owner

"Fabulous property - it's clear a lot of hard work has taken place to make this a comfortable stay, and it was really appreciated by me and my wife."
We'll be back soon!
Thank you so much David. It’s massively appreciated and we’re so happy you had such a comfortable stay. We’re looking forward to having you back! Property Owner

"We had a lovely stay at The George."
What a wonderful welcoming flat this is and although we had no issues during our stay communication with the hosts was great and I know they are most helpful. The George is fully equipped and was very much home from home, with quality furniture and fixings. The outdoor space was great (especially for the dog) with the added bonus of a parking permit meaning we had no issues parking. Location is great, being just a short walk from the beach, small town centre and the metro also on the doorstep for days out further afield. Welcome pack, including milk (much appreciated due to late arrival and shopping not being delivered until the next day) was a lovely touch and the supply of some of the essentials was great. I would highly recommend and be more than happy to stay again.
Thank you so much! We are absolutely delighted you had such a great stay. It was truly a pleasure to host you, and your kind words mean the world. Looking forward to welcoming you back anytime! Property Owner
