The cottage was in an ideal location and was so very well equipped. The sheltered and private courtyard was an unexpected bonus.

A lovely cottage, equipped extremely well with high quality accessories throughout the cottage. The welcome pack was excellent. Centrally positioned in Beadnell, close to places to eat and with easy access to the beautiful Beadnell Bay. Highly recommended.

This is the second time we have stayed here so obviously we enjoyed our first visit. The accommodation is comfortable and well laid out and we particularly enjoyed having the TV room, the weather was mixed so we were able to heat the small space and feel cosy. We appreciated the welcome pack and the flowers were a nice touch. As we were only a couple we had the single beds made into a double - well worth it as they are very comfy and I prefer that bedroom.
