We absolutely love this place, having spotted it last year on the way back from the beach to our other holiday cottage/stay we said how much we would love to stay here and my goodness it did not disappoint! The views from this property are absolutely first class! We are early risers and were in awe of the beautiful views and sunrises you can see at this time of year from the property. Its quirky âupside downâ design means you can make the most of the view throughout the day The property itself was exceptionally clean and modern in its design and the owners have thought of everything you would need. Despite being compact there is plenty of storage space also. The pictures on the website doesnât do the size of the bedroom and justice as itâs a lot bigger than it looks and the dog bed/area is just lovely. As doggy lovers itâs apparent that the owners of the property are too which always helps to set us at ease for our stay the little yard is useful for our dogs to go to the toilet, we were a little nervous that there may not have been a secure area for them to go out but this area is enclosed and safe which is great. On arrival, I was having difficulties with the key safe and Justin the owner came out to help which was really nice, he was really welcoming which was great. We loved the area having visited before, my husband loves to play golf, for which this is an ideal spot and we love to walk so the coastal routes to craster, lower Newton by the sea and beadnell were ideal for us (getting the bus back to the village one day as the dogs were a bit tired!!) Overall we had the most amazing stay and cannot wait to visit again next year!! Only observations in terms of feedback and potential improvements is, it would have been good to be able to park on the drive in front of the house, particularly on day 1 when having to unpack the car etc as the owners had a camper parked. There wasnât a parking issue as such as we could park in front of main house, just a thought/feedback. Also hot water a little temperamental and didnât seem to last very long/stay hot long for showers etc. possibly user error but may be worth looking at. Many thanks for a wonderful stay and we cannot wait to come back to your beautiful property! Rachel

Emblestones is so comfortable, we slept so well, the interior of the apartment is tasteful and spotless . Fabulous views whilst having a morning coffee, close to the beach and a great central place to explore Northumberland. We will be back.

Just a couple of things, the loft hatch which has a heavy ladder attached came down and we had to phone the owner who was away, so had to get it back up ourselves only for it to come down again in the middle of our last night. The owners were aware saying it was on their to do list and if it had hit one of us on the head it could have caused injury. The balcony was lovely to sit out on except for the smell from the neighbouring properties boiler fumes, which was sometimes constant so had to shut the door. During our stay the drive up to the property had 3 large vehicles making it difficult getting to the front door with our luggage, although this isnât the owners fault it should specify where it says ample parking this is one space in front of the neighbouring property.
