"Another great stay at this cottage."
First time since refurbishment and its lovely. Just a few bits of decoration needing touching up. But this did not affect the great time we had at 3 St Cuthberts Garth.

"The cottage was modern, light, and spacious."
Furnishings, decor and layout beautiful. Kitchen very well designed, with high quality crockery, cutlery and glassware. Halogen hob difficult to figure out as no instructions provided.The bathrooms were very well appointed, and everywhere lovely and clean.
The gardens were fully enclosed and secure even for our small dog, which is a bonus. Parking a bit tricky, but managed fine all week.
Welcome pack of tea, coffee, sugar, milk, biscuits and wine a very nice touch.
Highly recommended

"We have been coming to this cottage for quite a while now and love the location and the comfort of it."
hopefully we will be back next year. A couple of points though, one of the radiators in the kitchen we couldn't get going, the toilet in the ensuite had a loose seat. The blind on the door to the garden wasn't working, but apart from that everything else was fine.

"We had a lovely two weeks starving here and have already booked our next stay."
The location is perfect for a young family like ours. Close to the beach and local amenities.
A lovely big garden for our boys to play in with the dog safely only slight downside to us was the WiFi. Not good at all and we did contact the people looking after us and it didn’t improve but hey ho we tried.

The owners need to check the property after it supposedly been cleaned and damaged items also check everything works before the new guests alot of lack of communication between them the windows are filthy you open the double glazed doors and look at the frame work never been cleaned the Pyrex dishes in the kitchen cupboards obviously been cleaned in the dishwasher all stains and smears on the glass hate to think how you live
I have asked the housekeeping team to review your comments. We found no damaged items and everything was in working order. A plumber came out on your feedback and found no issues.

"The boiler wasn’t working on arrival, had to use Emerson heater for hot water for shower."
Reported defect plumbers attended the following day couldn’t fix needed parts, informed us they had attended property the previous week for same problems. We were told to leave Emerson heater on for hot water, this then broke two days later leaving no hot water, once reported it was repaired the same day. No heating was available all week which meant the cottage was cold as temperatures dropped to single figures all week . There were no instructions for how to use the hob. On our last night Thursday 13th June, we were woken around midnight the next door neighbour had music on very loud, banging doors, shouting, this continued until 3 o clock Friday morning, these neighbours are the people who I presume live there not the other side as that was a holiday rental too. We didn’t get much sleep that night and were driving home that morning which was a 6 hour drive after not much sleep.
I'm really sorry that the heating broke whilst you were there - we did everything we could to resolve the issue (everything is now sorted). I'm also sorry that there was an issue with the neighbours - everything is normally very quiet.

"Overall, one of the best properties we've stayed in."
Well located, Bamburgh is small so you're always close to everything, 10/15 minute walk to the fabulous beach, excellent facilities and a brilliant enclosed garden which is perfect for the dog. The only minor issues we raised were dealt with immediately by the management company and were due to a lack of information to be honest. There were no instructions for the cooker hob, the wifi code is in the back bedroom under the router but there's nothing to tell you that. We struggled with a lack of hot water for the four days, again there was no information about the heating/water system. Minor issues which are easily rectified and I'm sure will be. Not many places we'd go back to but this is definitely one of them.
So pleased you enjoyed your stay

"This is a well equipped cottage with excellent facilities."
Everthing is there for you.A welcome milk and white wine was great.Tea coffee sugar plus a cafetiere.There is a very safe dog proof garden for pups which is completely enclosed.The wheelie bins are in the entrance by the fence but difficult to get to as hidden under bushes.Garden furniture could be updated as a bit uncomfy for long sits.Maybe a teapot for us tea lovers! Beds are huge and quite high if you're vertically challenged but very clean and comfy.Bedrooms are small but adequate with tiny wardrobes,so keep in mind if you don't mind keeping your clothes in a case.The cottage is well situated for Bamburgh village and easy to walk to beach.Parking can be limited at busy times so it's first come first served.Great place to relax and staff very helpful.

"Lovely cottage & in an area which was accessible to main tourist areas, Bamburgh is a beautiful village & it was very relaxing."
The cottage was lovely, parking could be an issue as there are very limited spaces to park & not on the grass like advised.
The heating kept the cottage too warm, I’m use to hive but it was a pain trying to stop it coming on. Would be better if it was set to off & let customers boost at a temp which owner can control.

"We loved this cottage, one of the nicest we have ever stayed in."
The cottage was lovely and clean plus the location is excellent. The downsides to the cottage is the settees are very uncomfortable. The showers need somekind of soap and shampoo holder (not everyone is able to bend down all the time), no baking trays for the kitchen and you really need to put a mind your head sign on the stairs (my husband is 6ft 3 and banged his head and hurt himself). Sorry to moan on because we really did love the cottage but hoping these little things help you and others.

"We enjoyed our stay in this cottage, very well located in Bamburgh."
There is everything you need and we found the property to be very clean. Probably best described as functional as the sofas were a little uncomfortable however both bedrooms were well appointed with nice comfortable beds with good quality bedding. Good shower rooms although there was a leak beneath the sink in the en-suite. There is a log burner in the living room but no logs provided. That said other extras such as coffee, tea, milk were provided as well as a bottle of wine on arrival which was appreciated. Good sized garden areas - great for dogs although note they are not allowed upstairs. All in all this was a good stay, thank you.
glad you enjoyed your holiday. Logs are easily available at the coop in seahouses should you ever return! Clare

"The place has been recently refurbished to a high standard."
As an electrician, I’m quite critical and have noted some very minor items. 2 x Toilet roll holders need refixing, main bathroom toilet needs refixiing. (Probably wants a spacer on the wall) Both are very simple jobs and did not affect our stay what so ever. Outside the property needs a little work also. A gardener is needed here. Grass cutting before each stay in the summer is a must! As it’s dog friendly, poo is difficult to see in long grass. Front gate needed a screw in the catch, not a tyrap round it. ( I put a screw in) Overgrown roses prevented us from entering safely ( I cut them back a little) generally, garden needs attention all over, particularly around path and bins area. Gate at front to left hand side garden needs repairing. There is a rotary line stood up the wall, but after a furtle in the grass, I think the hole has been blocked up? IE. A washing line needed. I don’t like 7 nights in the same sheets anywhere. Freezer top draw front is broken and falls off. I applied some sticks like …. and it’s now fixed. May fall off again? As I said, I’m a tradesman and can be quite critical, but after the cost and effort of the refurbishment, why not address these minor points and make it spot on. Location is amazing too. Shops, restaurants and pubs around the corner, castle and beach 5 min stroll away. Perfect! Ps. Bed/pillows not to our liking, but that’s personal choice. The linen had had its day, Seemed worn out, spotlessly clean, but needs replacing. I like crisp cotton linen at home and on my hols please. Would I stay here again. Of course I would. Great place. Hope this is helpful and not just someone moaning fir the sake of it.

"We would never have booked this property if we knew dogs weren't allowed upstairs."
Only got told this a week before we went. Spent first two nights, broken sleep, going down to our dogs to resettle them. This needs to be clear before booking! Radiator in one bedroom not working, no lamp in that bedroom, Roberts radio didn't work. Window in other bedroom dangerous as low windowsill and no safety catch. Sofas only good enough for students. Fire extinguishers had no up to date label that they had been serviced. We were not issued with any guidance on what to do in case of a fire. Vacumn cleaner bag was rock hard with compacted dirt inside - we managed to change it. Putting a bottle of wine in the fridge and a packet of biscuits does not compensate. However beds were comfortable and the location good for the beach.
We're sorry you didn't think it was clear before booking that dogs are not allowed upstairs. We'll have a look at the other points you've made.
