  Just what we needed for our short break with our two Golden Retriever’s.

  A warm and cosy west-facing property, where we enjoyed watching the sunset on the veranda. Outside, plenty of space to park the car, a lovely green area in front, which was ideal first thing in the morning and last thing at night to allow the dogs to do their business. If you wanted a slightly longer walk, the adjacent field had a path around its perimeter, which has been cut. It was well drained and relatively dry considerably it was the end of October. There was also a lovely tarmac walk down the lane towards the valley if your preferred something firmer. Indoors - top spec. Loved it! We didn’t get chance to do too much cooking, but there appeared plenty of utensils for the two of us. Thank you for the complimentary bottle of wine, which was enjoyed by hubby - the only wine-drinker in the party. There was enough space to put our dog’s baskets and their toys. Have given 4 stars for comfort, as the sofa was rather low to the ground with very soft cushions, so not as comfortable as you’d expect. Welcome additions were the two high-back chairs, which I preferred to use. Wi-if was weak and kept dropping out, so had to use my own data to keep in touch with messages I had to pick up relating to an important event I was attending during our stay. Overall, we were extremely pleased with this accommodation and will definitely visit again and will recommend to our friends and family. Plenty of attention to detail and located on a lovely village with a dog-walking field, great corner shop, butchers, hairdressers and excellent dog-friendly, welcoming pubs with an excellent menu.

  We had a very enjoyable holiday.

  Longframlington is central to the area we wanted to explore - half an hour from the coast, about an hour from Lindisfarne, and with National Trust and English Heritage properties not far away. We could be on Warkworth dunes every morning with our dog by 7.00an (getting up at 5.00, which we enjoyed). We walked on Simonside, at Holystone Forest, on Lindisfarne, visited Belsay Hall, Cragside and Wallington, spent a hot afternoon at Longframlington Gardens, and another at Brinkburn Priory, and enjoyed lunches at the Anglers Arms. The cottage was clean - very important in these pandemic days - and had what we needed, though we were out most of the time. The kitchen was minimally equipped and I had to use a bit of ingenuity to cook, but we managed. The sofa is very uncomfortable - even our lurcher, a sofa enthusiast, would not go on it - but we had not gone on holiday to spend time sitting down.

  We spent a lovely week in Hillside View, and we were not disappointed!

  The lodge was absolutely spotless on arrival and the perfect cosy home from home. Absolutely perfect hosts who responded quickly to any questions we had, but did not intrude other than that. The outside area is completely enclosed, so it perfect for anyone with a dog/ small children. We were so pleased with how well equipped the lodge was, with everything you could need in the kitchen as well as fresh bed linens and towels. Even the toilet rolls were stocked up! (We have actually stayed places that only provide 1 roll for an entire week!). The hot tub was checked daily, and was an absolute treat on an evening.. stargazers will be very pleased, we were in awe. The park is within 15 minutes of Alnwick and has plenty of surrounding attractions including castles and a zoo. However we stayed within walking distance for the week (we came to relax, and we have a very lazy bulldog

  Wonderfully peaceful location, we hardly saw a soul during our 4 days there other than fellow dog walkers.

  Seriously relaxing...the hot tub was fantastic although not all the jets are working so we had to "rotate" for the best spot, but lovely and hot! Very clean and tidy on arrival. The resident ducks were so cute and we even had a visit from a whole swan family. Only very minor grumbles from us. One single bed needs some maintenance, it feels very rickety, and maybe a new mattress on the double as the springs are very prominent. New shelf needed in the fridge as everything falls into the veg drawer, a small leak from the heated towel rail and the decking is quite slippery and could do with a sweep. The only refuse bins we could find were on the other side of the site which meant rubbish bags in the car but not sure if we maybe missed closer ones? These are really tiny issues...would we return? Absolutely!! What a beautiful property you have. Thank you.

  Very clean and tidy, bed was comfortable which is more than can be said for the sofa which was low to the ground and very uncomfortable, chairs weren’t much better.

  Wi-Fi was very weak and kept going off line which was very annoying. Felt the bear minimum of utensils were provided with no condiments not even a dish cloth to wipe surfaces. I’ve stayed in many properties with Sykes Cottages and I think I’ve always found a small supply of tea, sugar and coffee but not here. As has been mentioned it would have been nice if owners had checked with us, to advise places to go roundabout, were to eat etc., but must give thanks for the bottle of wine. The dog, however enjoyed running round the field which was huge, and the area immediately outside the property was good for first thing in the morning and last thing at night for the dog to do his business, thankfully a torch was provided. The property was well situated for the many beautiful beaches and the corner shop was well stocked for everything we needed.
