The cottage is in a great central spot in Amble, making it easy to wander into town or head out for coastal walks . It’s very well equipped, comfortable, and very clean. The cottage is really well equipped and comfortable. The yard is very small, but there’s a green space at the end of the road, which is really handy for taking the dogs out.

Spacious cottage. Generally clean but some cobwebs, metal items rusty, needs a deep clean perhaps. Very tiny yard but great, quiet location. Other guests not putting bins out to be emptied so no rubbish disposal available for our stay. Lovely, homely cottage though. Would advise that owners make regular checks to ensure standards are maintained by cleaning crews etc.
