Only extra thing I would add to info on Sykes is first floor over stables accessed by stone stairs outside, in case people have mobility issues,( or small dogs with a metal plate in his leg that can't do stairs

Accommodation well equipped with everything needed. Lovely Sunday roast at the recommended Apple Inn in Lucker. Beautiful local beaches . Short flight steep stairs to accomodation. Shop pubs etc short drive away. Would definitely use again

Well appointed with everything you might need during your stay. A larger TV and a king size bed would be the only additions that would improve it. Great location for exploring Northumberland. Need to be aware that there are horses everywhere, so if you are taking a dog bear this in mind!
