What our customers say about their holidays

  We are repeat Coquet Cottages customers and we have always had a great holiday experience. This time we stayed at Swansdown in Amble. It is in the Coble Quay development which is very smart and has a dedicated parking space. Derek, the owner, kindly contacted us to advise that Swansdown would be available earlier than the 6pm arrival stated in the information sheet. The views from the balcony looking across the Marina to Warkworth Castle are superb. We had one rainy day, and I simply enjoyed looking out of the floor to ceiling windows, for quite some time. Swansdown permits one dog which was just what we needed. We also took advantage of the dog sitting service in order to visit a local restaurant that did not allow dogs. It was worth it as the food served at Sea and Soil is fab. Swansdown is very modern and high spec. The usual touches were very welcome; a nice bottle of wine, flowers, doggie treats as well as delicious scones and nice bread. Milk and butter are also provided. I understand there are beach chairs etc, in a storage area but we did not investigate these.

  Thank you for a wonderful week staying in your excellent apartment. We keep saying we wish we were back there looking out on that fabulous view from the lounge window. The weather may not have been brilliant but it did not stop us from getting out and about. We did see the Christmas lights switch on in Warkworth (man on hands and knees under the tree putting the plug in!) as well as Santa and his Rotary helpers (I am a Rotarian, and am a few bob lighter now!). We also saw a wonderful TV programme about Warkworth on BBC TV that week and did some enjoyable exploring around the village as a result. We will probably be back next year, but in the meantime we send you our very best wishes for Christmas and the New Year.  [‘Pubs, Ponds and Power – the Story of the Village’ featured Warkworth village and was aired by BBC in November, it’s available on the BBC iPlayer on catch-up nd will be repeated on BBC4 in January.]

  Great location for touring Northumberland and only a 10 to 15 minute drive from Bamburgh, Seahouses and Beadnell. Fabulous beaches for walking although people with mobility difficulties can face challenges accessing beach areas. Beadnell and Low Newton on Sea probably most accessible. Purdy Lodge is 2 mins in the car or within walking distance (so long as you are careful with traffic as no pavements). The Lodge offers nice meals and there is an attached 24hr cafe with a range of snacks and hot meals as well as breakfast. The cottages are very easy to find off the main A1 but are very quiet so no noise disturbance. Equipment and games help make evenings entertaining and we appreciated the very full welcome pack, the cleaning starter kit and toiletries.

  We chose Cherry Blossom for our recent trip because it was in exactly the right location for the activities we were planning, and it "looked nice". It turned out to be more than that, and we are already planning to come back. Great location, very quiet and tucked away but a stones throw from main road access. The cottage itself is delightful, very homely, spotless, and very well equipped to an exceptionally high standard. Absolutely everything you could want, and more, and everything about the place is high quality. It really did not feel like a holiday cottage, but like home. Great for a couple or family with small kids. Compact, but so well laid out, and we really appreciated the allocated parking. What a find.

  Location the cottage is ideal for all the best Northumberland has to offer. The weather was warm when we were there, so we didn't need much heating other than a little boost later in the evening, which we achieved easily by turning the thermostat up slightly. Plentiful hot water was available on demand. All rooms were comfortable and nicely appointed but we felt more crockery and cutlery in the kitchen would have have been a good addition and of great benefit. The outdoor space was nice, though not private. Each cottage had its own designated space, table etc, within a larger courtyard area shared by a number of cottages. The cottage worked well for us and we had a very enjoyable 3 night break
