Everything spot on as usual just a little thing rather than the sweet treats which are of excellent quality I’d rather personally have more toilet rolls .

We had a really lovely holiday, the house felt like home, they had thought of everything to make our stay a very happy one and stress free. Lots of lovely places to visit and restaurants to enjoy.My husband likes paddle boarding which he did every day at Walkworth it was great.

I can't fault this property at all. Lovely, clean, owner has thought of everything. Stayed in many cottages (not just in Amble) I would recommend this property and hopefully be back. Thank you.
