"Lovely cottage, everything we needed. Liked chickens wandering about and Mr Billy goat."

9.0

Location good, not far from Alnwick. Not far from Other towns to visit too

Toilet in both bathrooms took ages to fill up again, after flushing. Early check out of 9am a bit too early, should be 10 am at least.

"Lovely welcome pack. Good location"

8.0

The location, cleanliness.

The first two bedrooms need the duvets replacing, they were too lumpy. Mattresses were too soft ! It needs another shower to accommodate 6 people! A later checkout time of 10.00 or 11.00 am as standard with the majority of hotels/holiday rentals.

"Lovely stay"

8.0

Lovely clean and cosy Cottage. Quiet location and good to use as a base for exploring the area. Spacious and well equipped. Warm. Living room lovely to relax in. Good communication in advance. Would definitely recommend staying here!

Mattresses are a little lumpy and could do with replacing. Curtains didn't keep the light out. As others have mentioned, it is a little odd that the only shower is in the en suite... the main bathroom could do with one too.

"Excellently presented property in a quiet location with good access to Northumberlands coast and att"

10.0

Very clean and well presented property. Very spacious rooms. A lovely welcome pack was provided, which was very much appreciated. Very quiet location, but ideally situated for visiting the many places on the Northumberland coast. Very easy access to the A1, which was approximately 5 minutes from the cottage.

Cannot think of anything that we didn't like.
