Host & Stay - Eden Cottage

Loveiy property in ideal location.

Decor very tired, peeling paint, wet room not used due to dirty floor and uneven floor tiles, mouldy sealant around kitchen sink and bathroom wash basin, bottom bed sheet torn. Had to buy washing up liquid, kitchen towel, cling film.

Lovely cottage in a lovely location, quiet and close to all amenities.

Cleanliness and maintenance was poor. Dirty items in kitchen. Microwave sparked when we used it. Dust and cobwebs in various areas. Blind in main bedroom didn't stay down. Bed sheets had marks on and holes. Arrived in snow and cold, but no logs or kindling had been brought in, or fire set. Log burner is though ineffective.

Good location Homely decor Beds were comfy

It wasn’t as clean as it could have been. Customer service for the property weren’t the most helpful. Shower tiles in the wet room were unstable. The stairs could do with a little bit of a paint on the walls. The spare key wasn’t kept in the lock box and customer service wasn’t aware of the spare key. Instructions of where to park weren’t the most clear .

Very cosy cottage, spacious and well equipped

Didn't realise you have to walk through the muddy gardens of the neighbouring cottages to reach the door and it was pitch black at night! There was a power cut on the island during the last night, so couldn't see to have a shower in the morning and obviously couldn't make drinks or breakfast so had to leave earlier than we wanted to get some. Battery powered lanterns.or torches would've been useful.

Lindisfarne is an iconic island - we love it. Eden Cottage is ideally situated, on a quiet snicket in the centre of the village. It has the potential to be a wonderful place to stay.

The booking agents do not appear to have visited Lindisfarne. The cottage was poorly maintained and only cursorily 'cleaned', with frankly unsanitary conditions in the shower room. Supplies such as toilet rolls were for a single week when we had booked for 3 weeks. It is marketed by Host & Stay as a "Luxury Cottage" but the only luxury element was the price. We would advise future customers to give Host & Stay a wide berth. Go to visit visitlindisfarne.com for a good selection of much better priced accommodation. We submitted a complaint on 27th September and are still awaiting a response.

Beautifully decorated

Nothing

The cottage was very cosy and very charming with a beautiful shared garden ideal for a family of 4. The cottage has two bathrooms and two bedrooms. The kitchen is well equipped and a laundry machine is available.

The ceiling of the bed rooms are very low and the floor of the bathroom downstairs needs to be renewed. I would recommend to cover the garden furniture as it was full of bird poop when we arrived.

Situation, garden, comfortable beds.

It is tired - the staircase needs painting, there is nowhere to put clothes in the double room and a very messy mat in the passage. This charming cottage deserves a face lift.
