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 coupRead morele we had the single beds made into a double - well worth it as they are very comfy and I prefer that bedroom. Hide

Lovely cottage in a lovely village. The owners were great when we couldnt find it ( our fault the fourth turn off looks like a private drive so discounted it) and had a small issue. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and this was a fantastic location to explore our first time in Northumberland. Fell in love with the area it is magical. Everything you wRead moreould need was provided and appreciated the welcome hamper and salt / pepper/ kitchen towel etc that was there made this so easy to settle in quickly. The only very small niggle was the heating. It was on a fixed programme and we couldnt work out how to override especially upstairs. This was fine when we were out most of the day but when it was raining and cold we relied on the wood burner - again amazing that kindling/wood was there for us. A fantastic holiday in one of the best holiday cottages weve stayed in. Highly recommend. Hide

The Shambles was a great base for our stay in Northumberland. Beadnell is a lovely village with good facilities and things to do and see close by (beach and harbour are great). Beautiful coastal walks to Seahouses and Bamburgh in one direction - we didn't get to walk in the other direction during this stay but will be back! Beadnell also a good Read morebase for days out further afield as it's pretty central to many key places we wanted to visit. The cottage itself was great, a nice cosy and comfortable place to come back to each day. Hide
