  "Sue and John gave us a wonderful welcome (thank you for the treats!"

  ). The cottage is beautifully presented and maintained. It has everything you would need for a self-catering break in a beautiful area of the country. The beaches are unsurpassed, clean white sand. We visited Alnwick castle, Warkworth Castle, Cragside and Wallington, all within 45 minutes drive. The Widdrington Inn is just around the corner, very handy for tasty, well cooked food and a refreshing drink after a long day out. Wonderful!

  "We stayed at Bracken Barn Cottage over the Christmas period."

  The property was lovely and bigger inside than what it looked from the outside. There was everything we need and it was lovely and cosy inside, if we needed anything we just needed to ask Sue it wasn't a problem. The welcome pack was fantastic we have never had one like it full of goodies. We will definitely be back the cottage was a fantastic base for the coast and Morpeth.

  "We had a lovely stay at bracken cottage."

  A warm welcome from the owners, with a nice welcome pack included. Sue and John have done a great job renovating the building onto a surprisingly spacious and comfortable cottage for two. We both found the bed extremely comfortable, and had everything we needed for our stay, except a colander which would be handy. I didn't particularly like the cutlery, flat pressed steel knives and forks let the rest of the equipment Down, but that is just a small niggle. The views from the window overlooking the fields was great, plenty of birds, and two horses to watch. All in all a smashing stay and would fully recommend l.

  "The nicest cottage we have ever stayed in (and there have been a few!"

  ) Lovely, beautifully furnished, well equipped cottage, overlooking the fields and owners garden which, like the cottage, was immaculately maintained. Easy private parking, two minutes walk to a great pub which served excellent food. We felt comfortable from the minute we arrived and met Sue and John, the owners. Within easy reach of the beautiful Northumbrian coastal resorts. If, like my husband, Wi-Fi is essential for you, even on holiday, this was a bit slow and I could not get it at all. Perhaps an extender may help. But please do not let that deter you from booking this wonderful venue.

  "Where can I start."

  This property is perfect for a romantic get away. This is the perfect location, right next to a pub that serves great beer, great food, but for those not into that kind of stuff, it is near a bus stop. Where you can explore the wonderful areas of Northumberland, Sue & John are the perfect hosts, they catered to our needs, offered helpful advice on exploring and were very helpful for when we needed to talk to them. They both are very down to earth and treated us with respect. The cottage itself, upon arrival, it was very clean, not any dust in sight, and it smelled very fresh! It was kitted out with everything we needed, but I also liked the extras, the bird feeder, where you can see all the birds eat out, throughout the day. Seeing all the beautiful pheasants and horses run around in the field! The bed, was very comfy, and we had good night sleeps on it. The exterior, it had an amazing patio where you can just sit and chill, which would be perfect in the summer! We had the best holiday here, and I honestly would stay here again. The price is very reasonable, I am very surprised I managed to book this holiday for the price I did, because this cottage was a absolute gem. We will definitely be returning in the future.

  Sue and John were on hand if anything was needed but not intrusive. The cottage was nice and cozy and spotlessly clean with some lovely touches. I'm missing sitting in the window whilst having my breakfast and watching the pheasants running around in the field. Great pub literally two minutes walk away that does lovely food... would highly recommend the fish and chips. All in all couldn't fault it but make sure you take your slippers because the tile floors in the bathroom and lounge, although there are rugs in the lounge, can be a bit cold on bare feet, especially when it's as cold as it was when we were there. We hope to go back soon.

  "Fabulous cottage!"

  Exceptionally clean, very well decorated and had everything we needed for a quiet week away. Sue and John were there to meet us and explain the cottage "workings" and the local area. Such a lovely couple, nothing was too much trouble and there was a complimentary basket of goodies for us to enjoy too. The Widdrington Inn was only steps away from the cottage and we had some lovely meals there. The cottage is well placed for Alnwick, Seaham, Amble (lovely Sunday market) and Morpeth, to name a few "hotspots". We spent a day in Edinburgh - train from Morpeth only took an hour and a half. I understand that from December one can get to Edinburgh from the local Widdrington Station (about a mile and a half from the cottage). There is also a co-op store at Widdrington Station which was handy for the few bits that we needed, next door to which is a Fish and Chip Shop which I believe opens about 4.30 in the afternoon. Definitely would go back to this cottage and have already recommended it to some of our friends. Lovely area, people very friendly. Ooh, nearly forgot, try visiting Walkworth - small village lovely gift shop at reasonable prices.

  Druridge Country Park, a few minutes away, backs on to the Bay, miles of golden sands. Beautifully decorated cottage with luxury bathroom, bath and shower. Rural views of fields with sheep from the dining room table and plenty of activity on the bird feeders. Very comfortable and warm, loads of very hot water. All you could need for self catering but there is a pub within a short walk!

  The cottage was really cosy and comfortable with great attention to detail and pride in its appearance. The location of Widdrington was most central giving access to many towns and beaches. The village has an impressive looking pub - a great shame it was closed due to Covid! We enjoy walking, and there were so many that we were spoilt for choice. Bracken Barn Cottage is an ideal holiday choice for two people, and we can't wait to return.

  "Bracken Barn Cottage is a very comfortable, well equipped, serene place."

  It overlooks a field with a few sheep and a couple of horses on one side and the owner's large garden on the other. Nice to sit out in the evening, feeling close to nature. The front area with patio furniture gets the morning sun, so good for al fresco breakfast. The wifi is very good. The dining table overlooked the bird feeders, which were well visited. Parking is just outside the cottage. The owners were brilliant and showed great hospitality. It's an easy 1.5 mile walk via a footpath down to the beach and nature reserve, where we had great sightings of avocets, and yellow wagtails. Cycle route 1 gives easy access to Amble and Warkworth. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful part of the world.

I was ideally situated for easy access to the Northumberland coast and I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. It was comfortable and I had everything I needed including a bottle of wine to welcome me and a plate full of Quality Street. Both nice touches. Was there any drawback. Yes there was. As from next year they will not be accepting bookings from people who want to bring dogs, which is a great shame, as I am a dog owner and it will stop me from going again. However as it probably smelt doggy after I left you cannot blame them as they have to think of other non-doggy people.

  "This is a lovely renovated cottage and we enjoyed our stay."

  The owners were pleasant and helpful. It is ideally located for exploring the fantastic Northumberland coast. It should be noted that there is a steep slope from the driveway down to the cottage and this should be stated in the main details so that the elderly, infirm or disabled are informed before they book. A number of things would have improved our and any other guests stay: it definitely needs a full sized bread board/glass workshop protector as the small plastic boards provided are unless when preparing food, the selection of knives is poor, it would have been nice to have some kitchen foil for cooking purposes, the bath is lovely but it’s a shame such small towels are provided, take your own bath sheets. The shower is very basic and hard to maintain a constant temperature. The seating is very uncomfortable and it was only on the last day that the owners told us that it was actually a fold out bed which helped a little. I’m sure that if the room was rearranged, a better, more comfortable sofa could be provided as it was disappointing to come back after a great day out to being uncomfortable in the evening. The cottage only gets sun in the morning in the area provided and as you are not allowed to use any of the owners grass, there is nowhere to sit outside and enjoy the sun. We would recommend the area for fantastic dog friendly beaches and great coastline. We would not however return to this cottage. ********** Owner Response: ********** I would like to thank Mrs Hardy for taking the time to notify Sykes of her feedback and I would like to respond to this in order to reassure her and our future guests that we have taken these comments on board. The slope to the cottage can be seen on image 1 of the Sykes website, I'm not sure if it could be classed as steep. Our previous guests have included an elderly gentleman in a wheelchair and a person who depended on a portable oxygen machine to get around and the various knee and hip replacement guests which did not pose a problem. The small chopping boards have been replaced with a large glass one, a new set of kitchen knives added. As for the request for tin foil, our guests receive tea, coffee, milk, sugar, biscuits and wine which is usually appreciated. Bath sheets as well as bath towels have now been provided. The shower works directly from the new Combi boiler and the water pressure is excellent so not sure how the temperature was not maintained, it was working fine when tested as confirmed by our new guests. The seating in the lounge is a modern L shaped sofa from Ikea, whilst I do appreciate these modern furnishing are not as comfortable as a traditional feather stuffed, they are very practicable for a holiday home. The fact that it converts to a bed did not seem relevant to mention to Clare as they were a couple using the super king size bed in the bedroom. Sorry. The cottage does indeed get the sun in the morning as it faces east and there is lovely comfortable seating in place on the patio with outdoor cushions provided. We have our own private garden well away from the cottage. Our guests are welcome to use the large lawn which is directly in front of the cottage and we categorically did not state that they were not allowed to use it. At present there is a bench seat and in the summer months there are loungers for the sole use of our guests. Mrs Hardy did make use of this area to dry washing so I am at a loss as to why it was deemed out of bounds. I have responded to this feedback not because I want to prove a point but to reassure our guests that we do value their input which is why I make a point to meet with our guest within the first 24 hours to ask if they need anything, which I did with customers who only asked about the washing machine. I have been asked for a variety of things such as a slow cooker and even a freezer, which I have happily provided. If Mrs Hardy had simply asked for the above items I would have provided them.
