Had a great week in Northumberland. The house is very well located to explore Amble. Near the high street, the harbour and close to loads of good pubs and restaurants, all of which were very reasonably priced. The property was clean and fairly well appointed and generally quite comfortable. It could do with a dishwasher and a better TV signal. The bathroom is clean and nicely decorated but very small but we managed OK. We were 4 adults so struggled with the bathroom, it would be better suited to 2 adults and 2 children or just a couple. Overall the property was perfectly good for our break and the its in a great location from which to explore the area.
