Host & Stay - Rose Cottage

Great location, out in the countryside

The road was very narrow but we never met a vehicle coming the other way

Everything was in the cottage that we needed for our stay

Nothing

Very clean any tidy .Very comfortable bed. In a great location for lindisfarne, bamburgh and cragside. Very quiet. Easy parking. Private courtyard.

N/a

Quiet location, close to Bamburgh

Slight air of mustiness in the living room

Loved the historic character. Everything on ground floor.

Bathroom was far from bedroom, a door through would have been helpful, instead of walking right through every other room in the cottage. Shower is in the bath.

Very well appointed very clean & comfortable

The outdoor space when compared to the other cottages

The cottage is excellent. A short 6 min drive from Bamburgh and perfect for my needs. I did meet the owner, who was most gracious and helpful. Facilities good, very clean and perfect for a single or couple as a base.

Most regrettably the property is managed by an external agent. My communication with them was very poor. I received I think a total of 11 emails for this booking, which is at best very confusing. Then I had no email as promised for the access key code the day before staying. When I called the agent (the only number I had) to obtain the code, I was told it was my fault because I had not completed their form and paid a security deposit, of which I knew nothing. Yes, I subsequently found it mentioned buried in a booking.com sub section, but the emails did not easily make it clear or provide the form. The agents use a website for the welcome information on arrival, which without a mobile signal at the cottage you can’t access to get the internet code, which is in fact missing where the space for it is on the site….That resulted in three phone calls to the agent, with no solution, and I think 5 text messages to me (which of course you don’t get because there is no mobile signal…. ) I would not book any accommodation again which uses this agent arrangement. The cottage itself is great.
