  This is a great property and is really well positioned in the lovely seaside town - for the shops and for the marina.

  There are 2 small supermarkets within 2 mins walk in either direction and a bigger one a few mins drive away The property is well equipped for the average family with good storage for coats / boots downstairs and good drawer / wardrobe space upstairs. There were also dog treats and a dog dish for visitors. The property was spotless and had all of the basics that you’d need upon arrival (milk / coffee / sugar / juice etc as well as washing up liquid / tea towels / bath towels etc) Communication from the owners was the most proactive and helpful that I have had from any owners and was much appreciated (although having spent a week in amble for the last 2 years we didn’t need to call upon them). There is also a very useful folder with details of the WiFi etc and a box full of leaflets for things to do in the area. Amble is the best base we have used for Northumberland - you seem to be able to get anywhere quickly and without issue. The only niggle was the noise outside - it wasn’t bad at all - but on 2 consecutive mornings I was woken by the bin / refuse wagon (to be fair I did have the window open). Really handy to have a grassy area right next to the house for the early morning / late night dog walk (but if going in winter months please take a torch !) Loved it and I would definitely recommend it.

  Lovely cottage, well maintained, very clean , I believe recently renovated to good standard.

  Beds very comfy, bathroom tastefully decorated, with sufficient towels, etc Kitchen appliances all brand new, cooker easy to use, perhaps a steamer to use, would save on cooking things individually, plus help with electric, no cleaning products to use if you have a disaster, extra bags for rubbish, plus no recycling properly yet in your area, which has nothing to do with cottage, just environment. Situated in lovely area, marina at bottom of street, with plenty of shops on your doorstep if needed, plus market on Sunday in harbour which was very busy. Plenty of walks round about, and other areas to visit of interest, would definitely come again, only problem for our group, as I brought a friend who has mobility problems, using the stairs for toilet and bed was difficult, again something I should have thought of before I came, but would definitely recommend the cottage to anyone for a break in Northumberland, plus thank you for lovely welcome pack on arrival from Janet, Alan and Diane

  We couldn’t fault anything about our stay at Stone’s Throw.

  The owners have thought of absolutely everything to make sure you feel very well looked after. The fixtures and fittings have been very well finished, the house is spotlessly clean and they have gone above and beyond with little extras to make it feel modern yet comfy, even leaving dog treats, biscuits, tea/coffee and Prosecco as a welcome gift which was a lovely touch. The folder of information about the area was very helpful, especially as we’d never visited there before. Details including local pubs and restaurants that welcome dogs was especially useful and the best beaches for surfing and other local attractions came in very handy. The location is brilliant as it’s very near shops, takeaways, bars and the fishing port for early morning and evening strolls. I would highly recommend this for a couple, families (and dogs) as there’s something to suit all! Thank you so much and we’ll definitely be returning!

  Lovely cottage in the grounds of the hotel.

  The cottage was very clean, well appointed and bright and airy. The beds were comfortable and rooms quiet. The second bedroom is quite small so more suitable for children. The lounge was comfortable and the kitchen beautifully appointed. It was good having an upright fan for warmer days. There is a gravel area outside with a table bench. We liked that the hotels lovely lawned beer garden just a stroll away. We ate three times in the hotel. The food is very good and there was a special board most days. The staff are all very friendly and always made us feel very welcome. It is also just a short walk into Wooler where there are several hotels and restaurants. Milans Italian is great. Fish and chip shop and lovely shops. All in all an excellent base to explore Northumberland, would recommend.

  This pretty cottage in the heart of the village of Elsdon is an absolute gem.

  We were lucky enough to be the first to stay in it since it was refurbished and it has been done to an exceptionally high standard. Everything you could want is on hand from tupperware for picnics to an electric blanket for chilly nights.The property is clean and spacious with stunning views over the Northumberland countryside and in the national park so thousands of stars on a clear night. There is a village pub open four nights a week with its' own micro brewery and the village also offers some interesting history including the remains of the best preserved Motte-and-bailey castle in Northumberland. The cottage owners are a delight and we would love to stay here again as it is brilliantly located and well appointed. In fact, nicer than our actual home!
