What our customers say about their holidays

• Jenny - Verified booking

  Whilst the property was well equipped it did look like it had been furnished with odds and sods.

  The cleanliness was poor and the property was very tired with some furniture and various decorating issues. There were trailing wires in the lounge which could have caused problems. There were cables hanging down underneath the kitchen cupboards. These are really a safeguarding issue. Upon contacting Sykes the call handler made all the right noises regarding attending to same and promised to call back. When chasing the same handler said they had contacted the owner as Sykes were not responsible for maintenance of property. I disagreed as I had a contract with them not the owner and asked for their Manager to call me which never happen. I’ve did contact owner but didn’t come to inspect the property and I provided photos and a video to highlight the state of the accommodation. When highlighting the state of the back space and rotten gate the owner said the outside space wasn’t really for use but there is a washing machine and line plus an outside shed for the storage of bikes if needed. The gate could not be used so if s bike was being stored it would have had to go through the cottage.

  We are repeat Coquet Cottages customers and we have always had a great holiday experience. This time we stayed at Swansdown in Amble. It is in the Coble Quay development which is very smart and has a dedicated parking space. Derek, the owner, kindly contacted us to advise that Swansdown would be available earlier than the 6pm arrival stated in the information sheet. The views from the balcony looking across the Marina to Warkworth Castle are superb. We had one rainy day, and I simply enjoyed looking out of the floor to ceiling windows, for quite some time. Swansdown permits one dog which was just what we needed. We also took advantage of the dog sitting service in order to visit a local restaurant that did not allow dogs. It was worth it as the food served at Sea and Soil is fab. Swansdown is very modern and high spec. The usual touches were very welcome; a nice bottle of wine, flowers, doggie treats as well as delicious scones and nice bread. Milk and butter are also provided. I understand there are beach chairs etc, in a storage area but we did not investigate these.

  Thank you for a wonderful week staying in your excellent apartment. We keep saying we wish we were back there looking out on that fabulous view from the lounge window. The weather may not have been brilliant but it did not stop us from getting out and about. We did see the Christmas lights switch on in Warkworth (man on hands and knees under the tree putting the plug in!) as well as Santa and his Rotary helpers (I am a Rotarian, and am a few bob lighter now!). We also saw a wonderful TV programme about Warkworth on BBC TV that week and did some enjoyable exploring around the village as a result. We will probably be back next year, but in the meantime we send you our very best wishes for Christmas and the New Year.  [‘Pubs, Ponds and Power – the Story of the Village’ featured Warkworth village and was aired by BBC in November, it’s available on the BBC iPlayer on catch-up nd will be repeated on BBC4 in January.]

  The cottage had everything we needed. Plenty of hot water, heating we could adjust and clean bedding and towels. As seems to be a regular thing these days, no welcome pack was supplied. No private parking, but we always got parked outside. Unfortunately, we didn't find the cottage very private. The front window looks onto the fairly busy footpath. The backyard has no privacy at all from neighbours or the path path running along the back. No attempt has been made to make it a pleasant area to sit in. If the wind is blowing in the wrong direction, the proximity of the chip shop becomes all too obvious. Amble, apart from the harbour front, doesn't lend itself to a holiday destination, but the surrounding area does have some fabulous beaches and areas of real beauty. This cottage, as a base for this area is great but lack of nice outside space, makes it a compromise.

  Lovely property. Next to a great fish and chip shop. It can get busy for parking but you can usually get a space outside the property to park. Great downstairs space. Plenty of room for small to medium dogs to stay. Outdoor enclosed space is also ideal and gets a lot of sunshine during the day and evening. It has a relatively new gate that makes it secure. Perfect distance to walk down to the pier and harbour area - a fab walk round the bay with the dog at all hours. Dogs not allowed on the beach between May and September due to lots of families and it’s a small bay. We were first timers to Amble and this was a perfect property to stay at and experience Amble. If available we will be booking again.
