  Beautiful cottage, clean and comfortable in a lovely village and next to a very good pub.

  The furniture was good quality and the beds extremely comfortable. We were impressed by the immaculately clean rooms and the thoughtful welcome box. The downside was the smell coming from the cesspit next to the cottage. On our second day it was so bad we couldn't open the windows. My elderly mother wanted to go home bit decided to percevere with it. We couldn't sit out in the lovely garden on nice days because although not constant, the smell was on and off all the time and you could taste it. We would loved to have used the wonderful bbq facility but couldn't face doing our food in that smell. It was a real shame because it did put a dampener on our holiday with my elderly parents, 81 and 86 years old. Plus this was the most that we have spent on a cottage over past few years. My mother couldn't sleep very well because she couldn't have the window open. I note from previous comments on trip advisor that the owners have been told about this problem before which makes it even more disappointing because nothing seems to have been done. I dread to think how bad it was in the heat. Like I said, the cottage was amazing, clean and comfortable but please please please do something about the awful smell. I do hope that they contact me with how they are going to resolve the issue

  What a wonderful home in a beautiful location! After such a stressful year ‘Gin Gan’ has been the perfect place to relax and celebrate our 21st wedding anniversary! Thank you for the delicious goodies in the hamper which was such a treat! The weather has been very kind. We have enjoyed hours on the beach/sand dunes at Bamburgh. We also paid a visit to the stunning grounds and castle of Bamburgh and also spend a day at the wonderful Alnwick Gardens. We were spoilt for choice for meals, The Copper Kettle in Bamburgh provided excellent door stop sandwiches and cakes. Lewis fish restaurant in Seahouses did the BEST take away fish and chips. However, the best experience by far was seeing a seal pup on the beach at Seahouses on the evening we got here, it was an amazing sight that we wont forget. Five days really isn’t enough, we are already looking forward to returning. Thank you.

  Just returned from a lovely stay at The Gin Gan. It’s a fantastic cottage – beautifully decorated and equipped. The very large kitchen/dining/day room is really striking – great for family meals, but it was also nice to have the cosy sitting room with a gas fire. Bedrooms and bathrooms are relatively small, but have everything you need. The garden is also quite small, but private and fully enclosed, with nice garden furniture in a sun trap. Very peaceful location. Walking distance to North Sunderland/Seahouses – including beach, shops, cafes ect. Lovely spa a short distance away. (Beau Monde at Lucker). Owners were very responsive and helpful when we had a question. Coquet Cottages are always reliable – we have stayed in their cottages for a number of years and the standard of cottages, plus customer service are a second to none.

  We should have been here in June 2020 to celebrate my 75th birthday but we could not come due to the covid restrictions. We are so pleased we postponed our stay to June 2021 and celebrated my 76th birthday. It was well worth the wait. We have had a fabulous few days here at The Gin Gan. The house is fantastic and so well appointed. From the moment we stepped across the threshold we felt at home and relaxed. It was wonderful being able to get together as a family again. We couldn’t have waited for better weather to be able to sit and relax in the garden, as there was glorious sunshine. Thank you to Peter and Sian for the welcome basket, personal touches and attention to detail, they were all greatly appreciated. We would have no hesitation in recommending this lovely cottage and hope to be able to return sometime in the future.

  We have really enjoyed our week at The Gin Gan. The accommodation is comfortable and restful and a great place for the family to stay. There is everything you could need to make it a real home from home and the kitchen was a pleasure to use. We loved the attention to detail – the sea birds and pictures are fab! We have been lucky with the weather and some great days out visiting Lindisfarne and Bamburgh. We took a boat trip to the Farne Island and, having been impressed by the seals, had the added bonus of seeing dolphins on our return. We enjoyed some good meals at the Longstone hotel round the corner where we were made very welcome. (including the dog). Thank you for sharing this beautiful home. We have had a great holiday and hope to return.
