  We really enjoyed staying at Fidra for the week.

  The cottage is in a really quiet and quaint area in Embleton. The view from the cottage is absolutely fabulous - stunning green fields and the sea. The bedrooms are decent sizes and the living room is extremely homely and comfortable. My only constructive criticisms would be that the upstairs flooring is extremely creaky. When sleeping downstairs, if people are upstairs, you can hear every footstep. This could do with being sorted. Also, some of the furniture is looking a little tired and could do with replacing (bedroom wardrobes). The dining room table and chairs are lovely and roomy: however, the chairs are extremely heavy so my parents-in-law and children struggled to move them. Overall, we had a brilliant stay and would definitely return.

  Comfy cottage in a great location close to the beach and local pubs/shops.

  Gorgeous views of the sea from the upstairs window. We had read the previous reviews on the kitchen and brought our own pans but this wasn't necessary as new ones have been added. Plenty of parking space on site. The only negatives were the boiler running during the night as it's right by the main bedroom and a thick winter duvet in July which meant we were very hot at night. Some information about the local area/where to recycle glass etc would have been very helpful as the only information we could find was a request to water the plants. During the summer (2024) there is currently a different street food truck at the memorial hall every Thursday evening selling takeaway food which we really enjoyed and would recommend to other guests.

  A very spacious, well furnished, comfortable property and we loved it.

  There is a large lounge/open plan kitchen which leads into a separate dining room. All the bedrooms are large- two have en-suites - with comfortable beds and the bathroom is enormous!! The house is located at the top of the road leading to Embleton beach and every room has far reaching views of the sea and coastline from Dunstanburgh Castle to Low Newton. The village has a good grocery/farm shop/post office and a cosy pub serving good meals (booking advised). There are so many places to visit in the area and, if you don't want to take your car, there is a good bus service (note that public car park charges can be quite expensive). We really enjoyed our stay at No. 6 Sea Lane and have no hesitation in recommending it.

  We had a very enjoyable family holiday at No6 Sea Lane.

  It is a very attractive property, both inside and out; and is clean, spacious and well furnished. The bedrooms are all large and the beds are comfortable, and there was plenty of downstairs space to accommodate all 3 generations of the family . The location is excellent, with stunning views over the fields towards Dunstanburgh Castle and the sea. The lane leads to a beautiful sandy beach which the grandchildren loved, and access to the coastal path. Embleton is a lovely village with an impressive farm shop, a nice hotel, 2 pubs, a well equipped children’s playground and even a nature reserve. The owner was very helpful and always responded promptly, and I have no hesitation in recommending No6 Sea Lane.

  The cottage was as described, cosy, comfortable, well equipped and with fantastic views over Embleton bay and towards Dunstanburgh castle.

  A great location for pubs, beach, walks and the village farm shop. Bedding and towels were provided and were of very good quality. There was no welcome note or property instructions (e.g. wifi, central heating, bins/recycling, local amenities, etc.) which would have been useful. There is no obvious way of controlling the central heating - switching the heating controls to 'off' and turning down the thermostat had no effect. Some radiator controls are not accessible, meaning that some rooms were uncomfortably warm. The central heating timer had been set but not to particularly convenient times, with noise from the boiler room in the main bedroom at night. On the plus side, the bathroom was nice and warm.
