Guests that stayed at this property said
Guests have had mixed experiences with cleanliness. Some found the cottage to be clean and well-presented, while others reported issues with dust, cobwebs, and dirty crockery. The inconsistency leads to a score above average, as the majority did not raise cleanliness as a concern.
The location is consistently lauded for its proximity to the beach, local pubs, and attractions like Bamburgh and Alnwick. The convenience for dog walking and the peacefulness of the area contribute to a high score.
The comfort of The Cottage is frequently highlighted, with guests finding the beds very comfortable and the property spacious. However, some guests mentioned issues with heating and sofa comfort, slightly lowering the score.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, especially the garden and kitchen. However, guests noted some maintenance issues such as a problematic toaster, lack of hanging space in one bedroom, and the need for better heating. The presence of a welcome pack was inconsistent.
There is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the hosts. Without such references, it is not possible to assess this category accurately.

A lovely cottage in a good location. Cottage layout worked really well with bedrooms at each end of the cottage and living rooms in the middle. Lovely garden, ideal for kids and a dog.

Excellent garden ! Really private, great for sitting out after long walks. We took our camping chairs which were needed for comfortable sitting outside. Great Egyptian cotton bedding and comfortable beds.
