Longstone Cottage in Embleton is highly praised for its stunning views, comfortable furnishings, and excellent location. Guests appreciate the well-equipped kitchen, cosy atmosphere, and the property's proximity to local amenities and scenic walks. While some minor maintenance issues and difficulties in finding the property are mentioned, the overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with many guests planning return visits.
The cottage is consistently described as clean and tidy, with several reviews highlighting its spotless condition upon arrival. There is, however, a single mention of a less than perfectly presented bathroom, which slightly impacts the score.
The location is frequently lauded for its stunning sea views and proximity to beaches and local attractions. The ease of access to walks and the village of Embleton contribute to the high score, despite some comments on the difficulty of finding the property.
Guests find the cottage very comfortable, with comfy beds and chairs, and a warm, cosy atmosphere. The living room and bedroom views are particularly appreciated for adding to the comfort of the stay.
The cottage is well-equipped with necessary appliances and a well-furnished kitchen. Some minor maintenance issues and suggestions for additional items like a clothes line and safety gate for children are noted, indicating room for improvement.
There is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the property owner. Therefore, this category cannot be scored, and guests should not expect gifts during their stay.

The pretty village of Embleton is ideally placed for exploring one of the most attractive stretches of Northumberland's Heritage Coastline. A beautiful grassy path runs from the village to neighbouring Craster, alongside the sea and past Dunstanburgh Castle - the largest ruined castle in Northumberland. Embleton itself has a village pub and a local hotel, and there is an excellent range of amenities in nearby Alnwick. The gardens at nearby Howick Hall are open during the summer and are noted for their beauty, whilst Alnwick Castle and Garden are a 'must-see' when visiting the area. For the keen golfer, Dunstanburgh Links Course is about 1 mile away - just one of several excellent courses in the vicinity.
