Clean, comfortable and well equipped property in a superb location. The sea views are amazing, and how lovely to go to sleep and wake up to the sound of the waves. Having a parking space is also very useful and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

I could not recommend this property as it is at the moment. While the view is spectacular, there were too many issues for us to enjoy our stay: a smelly damp patch with flaking paint in the entrance, a bare wire sticking out of the wall, windows that didn't open properly, no shower mat or rail, no patio as advertised, just a space underneath a neigRead morehbour's window, dead roses left on the table, steep narrow stairs into the living room and a paltry 3 dishwasher tablets. Very disappointing for us. Hide

The situation of the flat was great having a view of the sea and treated to a wonderful display of pods of dolphins every day during our stay!! It would be helpful to give directions from the North as well as from the South. I had to purchase two 4.5 tog duvets as the ones provided were winter weight of 13.5 tog and 10.5 tog.

The flat is perfectly located. It was amazing to sit in the living room and look out the window to watch the dolphins swim past every day.

The view is the best part of this property. That isn't to say the rest of it isn't good though - it is comfortable and adequate. We had a wonderful time just relaxing looking at the view. When we ventured out we enjoyed the history of Berwick, beautiful scenery and some pretty little places to visit. We appreciated the wide open spaces of NorthumbeRead morerland, the lack of tourists and traffic. It isn't a night-life kind of place which suited us as we're past all that. Hide

Perfect location and suitable for our family of 4 (2 boys ages 12 & 9) it was our first trip to Northumberland and this was perfect for us to use to explore all around the area. Had everything we needed.

We had a lovely week here. The location was amazing, and seeing the dolphins from the living room window was one of the highlights of the holiday. The house was really comfortable and had everything you could need. Plenty to do and see nearby, some great walks, an easy drive to shops and restaurants. Would definitely return.
